Hi Kim, You have very limited information about this family but perhaps you are lucky. (Margot is not the most common name in Sweden.) Could this be the family? Are the ages correct? I found this information on the Emibas CD, made from registrations in the Swedish parish to go to a foreign country. The letters c and k are interchangeable in Sweden, so Christina could be spelled as Kristina, etc. Post 714299 Alfredsdotter Andersson, Anna Christina Widow b. 5/9/1861 in Ytterby, Göteborgs och Bohus län (Bohuslän) Emigrated 2/24/1903 from Annedal 128 A, Göteborgs Haga, Göteborgs och Bohus län (Västergötland) to Amerika Source: Household Examination Roll, p. 6792 Emibas migration file ID: Göteborgs Haga O 1903 018 Post 714300 Andersson, John Albert Unmarried man b. 6/11/1885 in Göteborgs Oskar Fredrik, Göteborgs och Bohus län (Västergötland) Emigrated 2/24/1903 from Annedal 128 A, Göteborgs Haga, Göteborgs och Bohus län (Västergötland) to Amerika Source: Household Examination Roll, p. 6792 Emibas migration file ID: Göteborgs Haga O 1903 019 Un-normalized versions: Parish of birth: Göteborg Oscar Fred.

Women usually didn't naturalize by themselves at that time period. If you are lucky and if she naturalized, the records are at the National Archives branch in Chicago, but if she naturalized in a county court, then there isn't a lot of information. http://www.cookcountyclerkofcourt.org/Archives_/Archive_Holdings/archive_holdings.htm There are excellent lists and boards for Swedish research, if you are trying to find out more about this family in Sweden, and there is an excellent archive called the Swenson Swedish Immigration Research Center at Augustana College in Rock Island, Illinois.

Wow - yes, this IS the family I'm searching.... any other information you might be able to help me with would be WONDERFUL. My grandfather just told me a couple weeks ago that he has always wondered what happened to Anna's husband. He heard that he was killed and Anna decided to pick up and move her family to the US to make a better life for them. He said he has always dreamed of learning more about their life -- since my grandfather is now in his late 80's, I'm really trying to help me discover more.

Hi Kim, Swedish records are fantastic. The hardest part is learning which parish the people came from in Sweden. Emihamn database of CD Emigranten (registrations with Swedish port police before leaving Sweden): First name: ANNA K Last name: ANDERSON Age: 41 Gender: K Parish: County: OA Port: GÖTEBORG Date: 1903 03 04 Destination: CHICAGO ILL Fellows: NEJ Source: 72:219:34533 First name: MARGOT Last name: ANDERSSON Age: 16 Gender: K Parish: County: OA Port: GÖTEBORG Date: 1903 03 04 Destination: CHICAGO Fellows: JA Source: 72:219:34533 First name: JUDIT Last name: ANDERSON Age: 14 Gender: K Parish: County: OA Port: GÖTEBORG Date: 1903 03 04 Destination: CHICAGO ILL Fellows: JA Source: 72:219:34533 I don't see the boy. This cd was transcribed so perhaps he was accidentally left off or has the wrong code number or was left off in the police records from 1903 or didn't emigrate after all or ???? 1900 Swedish Census: http://www.svar.ra.se (subscription) Homeparish: Göteborg Masthugg Residence: 8:de Kvarteret 4 County: Göteborgs- och Bohuslän Page: 27 Row: 35 Fam. nr 1 widow Anna Kristina Andersson, b. 1861 in Ytterby Göteborgs- och Bohuslän s.
