Svanstrom, Klas Arent b Karlskoga. Emigr 1926 - Parents ?

[Laura Swanstrom Reece]

My grandfather, Klas Arent Swanstrom emigrated from Karlskoga to New York in 1926.  His parents were Karl Peter and Mathilda (Matilda) Swanstrom.  I know nothing of them except their names.  Klas Arent has a brother who emigrated to the US a few years before. Can someone help me with my great-grandparents birth and death dates?  Many thanks!
