We can't do much to help you with common last names. Provide full names PLUS details such as birthdates, when they left Sweden, where they lived after leaving Sweden and so forth. Perhaps they will be found on an index.
Provide details such as the following.

Also do some research at the Swenson Swedish Immigration Research Center.

Also use the ideas in the following booklet which can be downloaded.
