Anna Stina Paulson

  Research Notes:

1. See her mother's research page. The note on the Stockholm Lutheran Church Records records that after the death of Anna Stina's mother in 1879, Anna Stina was 'adopted' by A P Cedarstrom and they moved to Kansas. There is no mention of someone with the surname of Cedarstrom in the church register, but they have lived for awhile in another Township or County. I have not found the surname on Ancestry

7. Re: Theodore Seashore, born 1871 in IA
- another Family Tree, Strand-Van Zandt FT
- Theodore Seashore's father was: Otto Frederick Sjöstrand, 1847\endash 1877 m. Anna Gustava b ? died 1877 in IA
b 24 Feb 1847 at Ämmenäs, Målilla, Kalmar, Sweden; d 1877 at Marshalltown, Marshall, Iowa, USA; left Sweden, 19 Mar 1869
- it appears that Theodore, b 1871 was the only child

Otto Frederich Sjöstrand had a brother, Carl Gustaf Sjörstrand, b 1839-1897 (at Dayton, Webster Co, IA) and this Carl had a son named August Theodore Seashore b 24 Dec 1871 Dayton, Boone Co, IA - he was also a pastor. He and Theodore (b 1871) would have been 1st cousins
