Hello
My name is Maria and I´m from Sweden so excuse me for my bad english.
I´m looking for children or grandchildren of Vitalis Olson born 1878-06-03 in Huggenäs Sweden, and Selma C Olson born 1889-01-28, dead 1981-02.
I now that they had 2 girls Rut M Olson and Signe E Olson.
Vitalis and Selma came to America in 1911. I think they lived in this adress at first -607 Wabash Avenue, Menominee in the 1920´s)and then later they lived at 1102 Stephenson Avenue, Menominee.(He worked att at saw mill in the 30´s.
His daughter Rut went 4 years in high school.Worked as a maid in a private home in the 1930´s.
Signe also went 4 years in high school.
I think Vitalis died sometimes under the 1940`s. Because I know that Selma was a widow 1949.
I dont know if the daughters has married or not.But I hope that they both have familys that still is alive so I can get in touch.
Vitalis also had three brothers that emigrated to America that I would like to know more about and if they have any relatives left that I can get in touch with.
Hjalmar Olson born 1869-05-10 in Botilsäter, Wermland, Sweden. Emigrated in 1887-05-21.(Enginering).He was married to Gertrud, born 1875 in Sweden.(Emigrated 1888) And the had a son Herbert H born in Michigan.1902?

1146 Stephenson Avenue, Menominee City.
Karl Oskar Olson
born 1876-02-24 in Huggenäs, Wermland, Sweden. He emigrated 1902-07-29. But it looks as he came home to sweden again and. But return to America in 1930-02-15.The adress he moved to is his other brother Victor Olson s adress at 121 Central Park, Evanston, Illinois. I think that Carl Oscar died 1951-06-18 in Los Angeles but I´m not sure.
Victor Olson was born in 1889-03-22 in Sweden. He became a American citizen 1928-02-07. He lived at this adress:
