That page 87 which is one of the missing Genline pages has popped up again and look who we need to investigate! I think this is your Kajsa Johansdotter. The birthdate fits. The birth parish is a reasonable spelling of the "Björke" found earlier and I think she is your Kajsa or at least a good chance to be your Kajsa. The last we saw her, however, she was the widow of a pauper. I wonder if she remarried since this person is the wife of a farm owner and remember that one of her sons was listed as a son of a farm owner when he left from that very same page. I hope the page does exist and was just accidentally left off of Genline. I provided contact information for letting them know that a page is missing, so be sure to send them an email. (I don't remember what post that is in. I've written quite a few.)

I looked at the Emihamn database (departures from Swedish ports) and although the last name is completely different, look at the destination, compare the ages, and consider that your Swedes may have been among those who love to confuse us by changing last names. I have Swedes who used names when emigrating that were barely used in Sweden and then disappeared after emigration. Maybe these two are yours. (Also note that a Kihlström is on the same ticket.)

Russhed seems to be an extremely unusual name. Perhaps it is a misreading of something else.
