Gustafva returns in 1857 and then leaves again for Mellby in 1858. Both Sven and his wife were from Mellby, so perhaps Gustafva is sent "on loan" to Mellby due to her employers' connections. I could not find Gustafva anywhere in the Mellby records.Swedish HER Between 1859 and 1860 Loo Storegården, Långered, Älvsborg, Sweden [7]

Orlando Passenger List
Although the family is listed with the surname Anderson, I am certain this is the correct family. It correctly lists the parish (Håkantorp), the number of passengers, and the time frame. Three of the five names are correct. Because A.G. escaped military service and the family left without papers from their home parish, they may have had cause to not mention their soldier's name (Brodd).1880 Federal Census 5 Jun 1880 Carbon, Carbon, Wyoming, USA [17]
