Damstugan, Lilla Bräng

I am surching for further information about my Great Grandmother Hilda Christina Swenson who was born 1857-03-03 and baptized on 1857-03-05 in the parish of Sund. She was the daughter of a crofter (torpare) Sven Pettersson and his wife Maria Olofsdotter in Damstugan, Lila Bräng. This information was obtained from the household examination roll of Sund (A 1: 10,63) for the years 1851-1857. I do not know the year in which she Emmigrated to America, but I do know that it was before 1878, because she was married in Illinois  in February 1879.  
Also I have information on her father Sven Pettersson. He was born on 1827-09-24 in Sund, and died there in 1857-06-18. In 1853 he married Maja Lena Olofsdotter. She was born 1828-01-13 in the parish of Askeryd. The couple had 2 daughters: Maria Charlotta, born 1854-04-17 in Sund: and Hilda Christina also born in Sund.
Any further information would certainly be much appreciated.

CORRECTION:  I do know when she emigrated to America.  It was in 1875. Hilda Christina Swanson or could it possibly have been Svensdötter?
