I have used the following Ancestry FT as a starting point. Then US Census records and a couple of obituaries using newspapers.com

- appears to be fairly complete
--------------------

- Tilda likely was married in 1890 in Marshall Co, but so far [7 Nov 2021] I do not know the location when she first arrived in MN from Sweden; moving out records for Östmark makes it appear that she traveled by herself
- it is not clear where she traveled to went she first arrived in MN. She had left Sweden in Jun 1888. She likely went to the Cokato MN area where many "Östmark Swedes" had settled. Her husband and his parents had settled in the Knapp, Wright Co, just north or Cokato, and so it is likely they met in the Cokato area. I haven't found a record for her in the US Swedish church records for churchs in the Cokato area (Gustav Anderson's parents are recorded in the North Crow River Lutheran Church (Knapp)

- the 3 younger children's baptism is recorded at First Lutheran Church, Warren MN church records [ancestry collection], but this collection is not very complete - the family is not recorded as members although there is no alpha listing for the "1st batch" of members (image 280) - I did not go page by page
[at Immanual Lutheran Church, Vega but listed under Warren; alpha list on image 201, but family not recorded]

re Samuel C Anderson: son
Richard David Anderson, b 31 Jul 1947, Marshall Co, MN

  Noted events in her life were:

1. Emigration, 1888: Leaving for North America, 6 Jun 1888, Östmark, Värmland län, Sweden. ⁹⁴⁹⁰ Tilda left for North America on 6 Jun 1888. She likely travelled alone. Tilda is recorded in Värmlänningar i Nordamerika, by Måwe, Carl-Erik 1971 (image 250); however the book does not record a known address. We do know that she was married around 1890 and by 1895 she and her family were living in Marshall Co, MN

Tilda married Gustav David Anderson about 1890 in Minnesota, United States. (Gustav David Anderson was born on 16 Sep 1859 in Älvsborg, Sweden, died on 14 Jul 1933 in Marshall Co, Minnesota, United States and was buried in Elim Evangelical Lutheran Church Cemetery, Oak Park Twp, Marshall Co, Minnesota, United States.)
