Thats not exactly true. I come from a line of Kihlberg's. When my great grandfather came over from Sweden the last name was changed to Berg.

My great grandfather was Franz Herrman Qvarfot. He was born 10/6/1846 in Nora, Orebro Lan, Sweden. He immigrated to the US about 1870 and married Johanna Mathilda Kalberg - also listed on various documents as Kihlborg, Kelberg, Kalberg) also from Sweden, in 1872 in Cook County, IL. They had 10 children: Frank D.(b. 9/2/1973 in IL), Tilda (b. abt 1875 in IL), Charles (b. 8/1/1877 in WI), Hanna (b. 5/29/1880 WI), Harry (b. 1882 WI), Minnie (b. 1886 WI), William (b. 1/1/1888 WI), Julia (b. 1890 WI), Paul Edwin (b. 1892) and my grandmother, Ruth Elizabeth (b. 1/3/1894). I am having trouble finding out anything on either side of my family. I think I found the arrival date for Johanna Mathilda (listed as Tilda) on the Caledonia arriving 6/23/1868. I cannot find anything on her, not even her death date in Wisconsin. They are listed on the 1880 census in Burnett County, Wisconsin, and lived the rest of their lives, to my knowledge in and around Grantsburg, WI. If anyone has any information on either of these families I would be very grateful. I have one living relative on this side of the family that says her grandfather Quarfoot lived with her family until his death in the 1920's. I have an estimated death year of 1918 for him so this makes no sense. She also states that her grandfather's name was Charles, as was her father, and that also doesn't make sense given her grandfather was named Franz. Maybe a second father in the mix?

Las Vegas Daily Optic -- July 30, 1910
Pioneers Who Traveled Old Santa Fe Trail

In view of the old trailers' reunion in Las Vegas on the Fourth of July, the Optic is publishing a list of the pioneers who traveled the Santa Fe Trail when that great highway between Westport and Santa Fe, was the main artery of commerce between the Missouri River and the Rocky Mountains.
This list is being added to from the day to day, as rapidly the names of old trailers are received. Appended is a complete list to date:

I am not related to this family, I'm just passing on this information, which comes from a webpage called "Pioneers Who Traveled Old Santa Fe Trail." The link for the site is listed below.

Hi Jason,
I also have rellies who went to the US from Sweden, so am wondering if you might have come across them in your research? They are Gustaf Bernhard KIHLBERG, his wife Agnes Hildur Armida KIHLBERG (formerly BERGSTROM) their minor child Anna Lisa KIHLBERG. And I believe 3 adult children, - who would have more than likely have had their own visa (I have copies of Gustaf,Agnes and Anna Lisa's visa forms etc) - Karl Gustaf Bertil, Signe Armida, and May (or possibly Mary). They went to live with Agnes brotheer Mr Nils J Bergstrom in Belleville N.J. They sailed on the SS Drottningholm arriving at New York fth of Mar, 1928. Here's hoping we may have a connection.
Best Regards,
Stephanie Cocks (nee Kihlberg)

I have read the last couple of posts on this site and thought that I might have some information on the Kihlberg's that you are wanting to know about in the U.S. My family is the only Kihlberg's that I know of in the U.S. I don't know if anyone still looks at this site so I will keep it brief.

Thanks,

Kihlberg from Goteborg, Sweden

I am researching my grandmother's lineage. Her name was Olga Mathilda Kihlberg. She was born 6-5-1884 to Carl/Karl Kihlberg and Amelia/Emelia ? She had at least 2 older twin brothers, Emil and Albert. She came to USA at the turn of the century. On 12-5-1904 she married Charles August Palm (His name was Karl August Karlsson in Sweden). They lived the rest of their lives in Malta, IL and are buried there. Does anyone out there have any connections to these people. I have run into a brick wall with this one.
