Augusta Maria Anderson

[Heather Shepard]

Hello!
A relative of mine is trying to learn more of her, I believe, great great grandmother, Augusta Maria Anderson.  Augusta was born 23 June 1863 in Sjenninge, Smaland.  Sorry if I am misspelling the location.  Her father was Peter Anderson born 1820 in Sjenninge, and her mother was Caroline Swenson born 1827 in Sjenninge.  She also had a sister Matilda, born 6 May 1849 in Ostergotland?, and a brother, Carl Oskar born 14 Jan 1866 in Sjenninge..  There were other children, but she is not sure of their birth dates.  She thinks they emmigrated about 1864.
 
Any help would be wonderful!!!!
 
Thank you!
Heather

Hello Heather!
 
My first thought when I read Sjenninge was that it might be Skänninge. Skenninge/Skeninge the old spelling of this small town in Östergötland. Olle has found the family living quite close to Skänninge, Hogstad parish is situated to the south of this town.  
 
The father Peter Andersson is born according to the householdrecord in Gränna (Grenna). This town is situated in Jönköpings county (Småland).
 
Carl Oskar was born 1866-05-10 (10th of May) and not in January at Kummelby Södergård, Hogstad. Parents: Peter Andersson, former farmer and wife Carolina Svensdotter (genline SCB 100005.25.2300).
 
Best regards
