yesterday.
: The two children, Gustav and Mary, were of course my father's cousins.
Anna,
: Emma and Siri were three of my father's aunts. I hope to find living
: relatives who are my second cousins.

: Hello!
:
: I am writing to you from Norway, and I apologize for my imperfect english.
:
: I understand that your main interest is finding people with Irish roots,
but
: I still hope you can give me some advise how to do research on my Swedish
: relatives who settled in Palo Alto County, Iowa.
:
: Looking into Iowa Cemetery Records, Grave Records of Palo Alto County, I
: found (page 76) that my grandfathers mother Sophia Wettermark (born in
: Sweden 1842), died in 1922 and was burried in Evergreen Cemetery in
: Emmetsburg.
:
: Looking into 1920 United States Federal Census, I found (Roll T625_505,
Page
: 4B, ED 193, Image 517) Sophia and six other relatives living together:
: Sophia Wettermark, widow. She was born in Sweden 09 Jun 1842 (SOFIA
Gustava
: Fredrika Janzon), emigrated to USA 1908.
: Anna Clausen, daughter. She was born in Sweden 17 Sep 1867 (ANNA Jenny
: Leontina Wettermark), emigrated to USA 1907.
: John Clausen, Anna's husband (age 51, born in Schleswig).
: Emma Robarg, another daughter, widow. She was born in Sweden 15 Apr 1870
: (EMMA Hedvig Augusta Wettermark), emigrated to USA 1905.
: Gustav(e) Anderson, Anna's and Emma's nephew (my father's uncle). He was
: born in Sweden 09 Feb 1907 (GUSTAF Adolf Andersson), emigrated to USA
1908.
: (Marg)Mary Anderson, Anna's and Emma's niece (my father's aunt). She was
: born in Sweden 17 Nov 1907 (Tora MARIA Wilhelmina Andersson), emigrated to
: USA 1908.
: Oscar Johnson, probably a relative (age 36, born in Sweden).
:
: The parents of the two children (Gustav and Mary) were missing on this
list.
: They probably died sometime between 1908 and 1920. The mother's name was
: Siri Nanny Maria (Wettermark) Andersson, born in Sweden 23 Feb 1876, and
the
: father's name was Otto Ferdinand Andersson, born in Sweden 18 Nov 1876.
:
: Maybe you know someone living in the Emmetsburg area with Scandinavian
roots
: who are able to trace living relatives?
