I believe that you are right. These are the correct family. We think that this Karl
Alfred was Wilhelmina's first husband. We don't know what happened, but family
members believe that Signhild was actually Andrew's daughter. I know that my great
grandfather was born in 1892, and his father was Andrew Gustav Carlson. I just spoke to
Signhild's grand-daughter, and she does recall that Signhild (Signe) had 4 brothers.
With your information, that would be correct. 2 older, and 2 younger. I hear that it is
not uncommon that she would have been with 2 men with the Carlson, Karlsson last name. We
just need to do some more investigation on this. Thank you so much for your information.
