I am hoping you will be able to help me find information on my great-grandparents family in Sweden.
I just found out my great-grandfather,Andrew Pilquist, was born Anders Nilsson on July 23 or 24, 1854, Hjortsberga parish, Blekinge, Sweden. He came to America 1881 and settled in Chisago County, Minnesota. When he married he bought a farm of 80 arces in Armador Township, Chisago County, Minnesota.
He married a woman whose name in Sweden was Elin Olsdotter, born December 28, 1952, Tving parish, Blekinge, Sweden. Elin had been married in Sweden, but her husband died, so she was a widow when she came to America. I believe her father was Ola Månsson. I do not know anymore. I live in Stillwater, Minnesota, about 30 miles from the original family farm.
Regards, Laura Pilquist
