Surnames: Sjodin Fardig Ferdig
In 1872 Karl Andersson Färdig in Sparlösa/Sweden got a daughter Olivia (her last name might have been Färdig or Karlsdotter). In June 1883 she travelled from Göteborg/Sweden to "Amerika". I have looked in the Ellis Island records for her arrival without success.

At the inventory after her father's death 1921 it was noted that Olivia was dead, but had been married to August Sjödin and they had a son Hedd August Oliver (Sjödin?), born in USA 1895.

Is there anyone who can help me with any information about Olivia, August and Hedd - where they lived and what happened to them in USA?

Correction:
Olivia left Sweden in June 1893 (not 1883).

Thank you, Kate!
August must be the one who died in Otter Tail 1924. But if he is Olivia's husband is still to find out.

Their son Hedd August Oliver b 1895 was alive 1910 and should have been mentioned in the census. Is he the one called Anton? I doubt that.
I keep on searching...
