  Notes	Britta, Tilda, and baby Emma arrived in New York from Liverpool on October 14, 1881, on the City of Paris, originating from Malmö. They had departed from Malmö on September 22nd with their place of origin shown as Kånna. Their destination is shown as Red Wing, Minnesota. Presumably, Carl Gustaf had left Sweden earlier and was waiting for them in Minnesota. From an entry found by Jan in the Anbytartforum, we learn that Britta Maria was born in the Jonsboda cottage on the Näs farm in Södra Ljunga. She was christened there on the 23rd. Witnesses were the soldier Johan Ekström from Hagatorp under {near? south of?} Össjö, farmhand Salomon Jonasson in Ljunga, maidservant Marie Jacobsdotter from {something to do with summer, summer estate?}, houswife Anna Lisa Larsdotter from Jonsboda. A descendant of Johan Ekström says: “His full name was: Johan Peter Jonasson/Jonsson Ekström [soldier surname] (1821-1868) whom I show living at torp Hagatorp, Össjö Norregården, S. Ljunga, Kronobergs län, Småland in Sweden in 1845. His son, Johan Salomon (1846-1928) emigrated to the US and settled with his family in Minneapolis, Minnesota.”
