I guess I better clarify because I was given GREAT information in your post but I see I didn't give good information myself.
OLAF JOHNSON (unsure of Swedish spelling) was married to KAJSA (unknown last name). According to her obituary HE died in Vastra Gotaland Lan, Sweden, 29 Oct 1880. KAJSA was born 29 Oct 1830 Elfsborgs lan, Sweden, died 5 Feb 1906 Hayward, Wisconsin. Supposedly immigrated 1880 but I can't find immigration record because I don't know what NAME she used...I've found a couple of possibilities under Johnson but unsure if it's her. Her OBIT says she came in 1888 with one of her sons, FRANK OLSON (OLSSON).
SONS: JOHN AUGUST OLSON (OLSSON) b. 17 Nov 1857 Vastra Gotaland Lan, Sweden (obit), d. 9 Dec 1937 Hayward, Wisconsin. Immigrated 1883
FRANK OLSON (OLSSON) b. 25 Sept 1859 Vastra Gotaland Lan, Sweden, d. 5 Nov 1942 Hayward, Wisconsin (obit). immigrated 1882. Returned to Sweden, married amanda Charlotte Kihlstrom (Chilstrom) 25 Oct 1885 Sweden and returned with her and two children and his mother to Wisconsin 21 May 1888 (no immigration data on mother, Kajsa)
ALFRED OLSON (OLSSON) b. 4 Aug 1862 Flo Soken, Skaraborgs Lan, Sweden, d. 5 Dec 1940 Hayward, Wisconsin. Married Anna Hanson 1 Nov 1891 in Sweden. She was born 23 May 1869 Norrala, Gafleborg Lan, Soderhamn, Sweden, d. 31 Jan 1957. All this from obituaries. They left Sweden 23 May 1902 and arrived Boston 6 June 1902 sponsored by Frank Olsson, brother, Hayward Wisconsin. They had four children with them, Barbro Olsson, b. 1893, Svante Olsson, b. 2 June 1894 Soderhamn, Sweden, Axel Olson, b. 22 Jan 1897, and Karen E Olsson, b. 19 July 1899.
AXEL OLSON b. 23 Nov 1869 Flo Soken, Skaraborgs Lan, Sweden, d. 12 June 1906, Wagon Accident, Hayward, Wisconsin. Immigrated possibly 1887.
Those are the ONLY four children that I know of for OLAF JOHNSON and KAJSA. Her obituary was under Johnson but her tombstone says KAJSA OLSON. Her maiden name is unknown.
Sorry I wasn't more clear in my previous post. I learned a lesson!
