My grandparents were married there in Ottumwa, Wapello County, sometime
around 1893.I am trying to find out if there were any of his or her family memberslisted at the time of their marraige. I have not found out if either of them had brothers or sisters or cousins
or any relatives that were in the community or back in Sweden. I did remember mymother saying that one uncle was Swanson, and another uncles last name wasHaglund but whether they ever left Sweden I can't remember?Was there any newspapers at that time that would announce their wedding,etc.that might list family members?
