    Was it just a coincidence that the cousins Maria and Anders went to America with only four days between their travel dates? Maria has as her day of emigration 20th of March 1894 and Anders emigrated 16th of March the same year. Marias destination according to the data base of emigrants is Akron, Iowa and Anders has Worcester, Massachussets as his.

    Var det bara en tillfällighet att kusinerna Maria och Anders åkte till Amerika med bara fyra dagars mellanrum? Maria har som utvandringsdag den 20 mars 1894 och Anders flyttade den 16 mars samma år. Marias destination enligt databasen med uppgifter om emigranter är Akron, Iowa och Anders har Worcester, Massachusetts som sin.

      How interesting! I wonder if either of the cousins already had family in the U.S. Do you think that is why they chose different parts of the country to settle?

      I have found out that there was a family from Lyrestad living in Akron 1900. They were probably the reason for Maria to go there. Why Anders went to Worcester I don’t know. (yet! ;))
