Johanna is Hannah, wife of SP or Sven, do not think Nels ever married, think he is brother of Sven, but not sure. Nels tombstone says "Uncle", so am hoping the nephew and niece are Svens children. Believe Sven or S.P. went to Wisconsin sometime after his wife died and am trying to figure out when, this is not my family, but someone I am trying to help. If the obit for Nels says he is related to Sven or his children, we would know where in Sweden Sven is from. The children mentioned in the 1870 census in Franconia get married in Wisconsin and Sven gets married in the mid 1880's in Wisconsin.
1880 census has Nels living with Slattergrens, if I remember correctly and Nels is a saloon keeper, still in Franconia.
Have not checked the other areas in the 1880 census except Franconia for Sven and the children, they could be in Taylors Falls or in Chisago, I suppose, or maybe they are in Wisconsin by then.
Have been to Taylors Falls twice, my own family, morfarfar and morfarfarfarfar were in Lindstrom from 1854 to 1910ish, although my mormorfarfar came in 1851. but left 1855ish and then was in Franconia in the 1865 census and then later lived with a nephew a lot of the time in Shaefer.
