I am looking for the emigration record of *Johan Fredrik Pettersson* and his wife, Christina Charlotta Wahlin and 4 children. I think they were last living in *Hedvig Eleonora, Stockholm*. I think this may be his moving out record: *AID: v85548.b181 - Hedvig Eleonora, Stockholm / BIIa : 12 (1865-1869) image 181 / right side, 1866 - entry 19.* Johan and Christina had the following children: 1. Charles Peterson born June 1859 in Sweden (parish unknown??) 2. *Amy Elizabeth * born 7 Nov 1861 supposedly in Växjö, Kronoberg?? but I cannot find her in the birth records there 3. Carrie born 1864 in Sweden (parish unknown) 4. *Nina *born 7 April 1866 in Hedvig Eleonora, Stockholm. I think this is her birth record: *AID: v85592a.b288.s401b entry # 7* *Hedvig Eleonora, Stockholm / CI:24, Ver:a (1864-1866) image 288 page 401b* I want to trace this family while they were in Sweden, but without a parish or some dates it's difficult. I just need some guidance. Thank you! Mary
