I would love to find out what parish Mary was born into, with hopes of identifying Oles parents somehow. if you have access to that kind of information. Her name is Mary Elizabeth Nelson BAugust 31, 1888 in Malmo, Sweden, Death December 17, 1971 in Spencer, Iowa.

I saw you read old Swedish records. I recently found my great, great-grandfather's death record on Genline and of course cannot read it. Hope you may be able to help. I can send the record as an attachment if you will provide an e-mail or if you happen to be a Genline member I can tell you where I found it. I sit with a Swedish/English dictionary to figure things out....as you can probably guess it takes forever.
