I think I can add to this part, but I can't help with descendants.

"1. Eleanor 'Nellie' (Olson)1 Badger, daughter of John Olson and Anna C (Larson) Olson, was born
in Sweden Oct 5, 1878."

I see this family on the Emibas CD. Emibas was made from registrations in the Swedish parish to go to a foreign country. It is about 75% complete and does not translate titles and occupations but is very useful in finding the parish where a person was born in Sweden. The mother was a Larsdotter (daughter of Lars), not Larsson (son of Lars). Hustru = wife. The father/husband must have gone ahead to find a home and a job. She used her patronymic (son/dotter)name after marriage according to Swedish customs. (She still was the daughter of Lars, not the son of Olof/Olaus (Olsson/Olofsson/Olausson),even though she was married, so that was the reasoning. She probably followed U.S. customs when she emigrated, but in Sweden, she used Swedish customs.) The letters c and k are interchangeable so Christina = Kristina.

Barn = child or children, depending upon the context.

This looks like a good possibility for the husband "John". He was a dräng = farmhand.

Do the siblings of Nelly match? Nelly's birthdate certainly matches.
