Lindberg (marr Stewart), Elsie born Boras

[Elsie Ekstrom Martin]

A friend of mine has family in Bohuslan.  They are Erik Lindberg 1904-1970, and Hanna Lindberg 1900-1970.  One of their children was Elsie, who immigrated to the US and married as Stewart.  All are buried in Boras.
Any information you can offer regarding this family and her marriage with Stewart in the US is welcome.
Thanks,
Elsie Ekstrom Martin

Elsie, where did you find the connection to Bohuslän? Was Hanna born there?
 
Borås is in Västergötland, not in Bohuslän.  
The administrative region for both areas is nowadays called Västra Götaland. Earlier, Borås belonged to Älvsborgs län and all of Bohuslän belonged to Göteborgs och Bohus län.
 
If your friend is sure of the birth and death years these people could be the family you look for. According to the Swedish Death Index:
----------------------------

Hello Lena,
The information about Bohuslan was information from the family, but as you have indicated it was wrong information.  I think you have found the correct Lindberg family from Boras.  Do you have the information about their children?  I am particularly interested in Elsie, who traveled to the US and married a man by the name of Stewart, possibly in Sandstone, MN.
Thanks so much for your help,
Elsie Ekstrom Martin

Elsie,
 
Eva's information is more accurate than mine. I use an older version of the death index.
 
I'm sorry, I don't know anything about the children or Elsie's marriage.
 
Hope you find them...
