FIFTH GENERATION
24. Lars ANDERSON was born in 1825 in Gillberga,
Va:rmland, SWEDEN (near Sa:ffle). or possibly So:dermanland
most probably not 1827, as attested to by James Anderson's memory of his tombstone
and the age at death both of which argue for 1825. He emigrated in 1884 from
SWEDEN. He immigrated in 1884 to Manistee, Manistee, MI. He was a Bookkeeper
in 1902 in Manistee, Manistee, MI.(22)
He died in 1907 in Manistee, Manistee, MI. He was also known as Lars Andersson.
(81) He was married to Emma Kristina JOHNSON
on 28 Sep 1854 in Kil, Va:rmland, Sweden (or Kila).
(82) oral family history places this in 1853, whereas the International
Genealogical Index lists a marriage in 1854.
Lists the place as "Kila, Va:rmland, Sweden" however Kila is in So:dermanland
miles SE. The town is almost certainly Kil, Va:rmland, Sweden.

(83)
(22) was born on 27 Mar 1835 in Takne, SWEDEN.
(84)(85) also listed by Emil
as 1834 and 1836, but this makes her too young at death (she was 79 in 1912)
She emigrated in 1884 from SWEDEN.(86)
one place admits doubt, could be 1885 She died on 23 Sep 1912 in Manistee,
Manistee, MI.(87)
(88) Emil records 1911, but 1912 is probably more accurate and agrees
better with her age at death She was also known as Johannesdotter ?. She Died
