with added comments:
Gertrud returned to Sweden with her father and brother Jon. She married Ole Noren in Sweden.** The couple emigrated to Buffalo, MN around July 14, 1874. Her brother, Jons stayed in Sweden until about Oct. 15, 1880.

Note: that the Östmark moving out records: 2 May 1870
[B:2, image 71, no 23 - records Jon, wife, Maria, Gertrud and Jöns all leaving]
- on 20 May 2022 - I reviewed moving in records - but Jon, Gertrud, and Jöns are not recorded BUT all three are recorded in the Household records,
Östmark (S) AI:24 (1871-1875) Page 37, Gammaltäppan
Jon Jönsson b 18 Jan 1825
then, "H" = wife "i America"
Gertrud, b 21 Aug 1855; moves to page 573 in 1873 **
Jöns 21 Sep 1861
** page 573, Rundsjöns
Gertrud Jonsdotter, b 21 Aug 1855; pige; leaves for America, 14 Jul 1874 [B:2, image 98, no 15; by her self]

AND another comment:
Ole is not on census [re 1885 MN State; Rockford Twp, Wright Co].
But she has 2 children. Her headstone does not include Ole and family records say he abandoned her.

** married in Sweden - this is not likely - the Östmark parish records that she left on her own in 1874. Her brother and father stayed for awhile at

** Swedish American Church Records; Zion Lutheran Church; Buffalo MN; image: 132

* this may or may not be correct
[note there is another Ole Noren/Norin when doing a general search - this person is married to Katherine and has
2 children born in MN; and then in 1910, 1920, 1930 and maybe 1940 US Census in Washington state
- but this Ole was born in Feb 1856 in Swe

comment:
After 1880 • Buffalo, Wright County, Minnesota, United States of America
According to family records, he never married. He and his sister Gertrud returned to Sweden, and he returned without her to Buffalo, MN about Oct. 15, 1880. He was said to be in poor health and died shortly after.

Gertrud married Olof Noren on 2 Mar 1876 in Marysville Twp, Wright Co, Minnesota, United States. (Olof Noren was born on 19 Mar 1856 in Fryksände, Värmland län, Sweden and died in United States.)
