Charles Henning Paulson Born October 14,1878

[Allen Paulson]

I am looking for information on my grandfather Charles Henning Paulson who came to American and lived in Minnesota.  I know nothing about him or his family. I believe he was born on Oct 14, 1878. I am looking for any and all information on him. He was a very kind man and spoke very little english.

It is not easy to find him if you not have anything more about him. Do you hink he was born in Smaland? Try to find anything more about him. Then did he came to America?

Hi Allen,
In the CD Emigranten Populär I found this man(though he was born in 1870/1871 according to this source):
Carl Henning Pålsson (=Paulsson).
Carl was 20 years old when he emigrated 24 April 1891.
He left from Eskilstuna via Gothenburg with destination Peale. He travelled alone.
Maybe you can find a way to see whether this could be your grandfather.  
----
If this is the right man he can be found in the 1890 cencus:
Pålsson, Carl Henning
Plåt-arb. (Metal-worker)
 
f. (born) 1871 i Hällestad (Östergötlands län, Östergötland)
 
Ogift man, ensam i familjen (Not married, alone in the family)
 
Eskilstuna (Living in Eskilstuna 1890)
Eskilstuna (Södermanlands län, Södermanland)
 
Födelseort i källan: (Place of birth according to the source) Hellestad Östg.l.
 
Good luck!
