Born:  April 13, 1866, in Jonkoping
Parents:  Gustaf Pettersson and Anna Marie (Unknown)
Religion:  Swedish Lutheran Church  
Siblings:  5 brothers and sisters, 3 half-siblings
Thank you for any help or leads on information.

Augusta Sofia Pettersson can not be found in
the records of Jönköping, Kristina or Sofia.
Nor can I find her in the Emibas for Jönköpings
county.
Could it be Linköping or Norrköping?

Anna Maria Petersson emigrated from Jönköping
1886-09-14.
From the same address in Jönköping emigrates
Lovisa Ottilia Petersson 1886-04-20.
This is from the EMIBAS, and if You think
this could be Your great-grandmother let  
me know.

The information that I posted was given to me by family members, so I have no actual verification that any of it is correct except the birth and death dates.  It's certainly possible that she was from Linköping or Norrköping.  In an interview for a newspaper article on her 90th birthday, she stated that she traveled to the U.S.A. with her older sister Louisa (Lovisa).

I am looking for a Caroline/Carolina Peterssson from around Varmland/Karlstad? She would have been born 1860-70. She married a John Fredrick Johnson in Sweden, then immigrated to the US. John Fredrick Johnson was born around 1860. Do you have any information on the sisters of Anna? Thank you. Sue Beauchamp- sueellenborn@yahoo.com
