Ahlquist, Olaf Nicholas

[Rebecca Paque]

I am trying to find information on Olaf Nicholas Ahlquist, who is my Great, Great Grandfather.  His wife was Anna Gertrude Nelson.  They both immigrated to the USA from Gotland Sweden.  Anna was born 3-28-1849, I believe that Olaf was born the same year.  Any information would be helpful.
Thank You

Could someone please look this information up on the Emigraten CD for me please??  Olof's date of birth that I have is February 13, 1845.  I believe that they were married in 1871, but I do not have an exact date and do not know if they were married in the States or in Sweden.  After they were married, they had three daughters, Mabel, Anna Daisey, and Ellen.  I have a note that he came to the states in 1870, I do not know if he and Anna came together or seperately.  Any information would be helpful.  Thank You!!

Bo,
This should be them.  Their ages are correct and they did end up in Kansas.  
Thank You!

Bo, or anyone,

Thank You!

Sorry, I have no knowledge about them. I suggest you put a question in Landskap>Gotland>Socknar>Havdhem.
Good luck!
