KARLSKOGA Does this place-name sound familiar to you? Karlskoga is a Swedish city /32000 inhab.) about halfway between Stockholm and Oslo. More than 5000 people emigrated from here to America between 1849 (the goldrush in California) and 1935. Our Heritage Society has an emigrant section in its archives, and we are steadily working with emigrant research. If you have roots here, please let us hear from you. Write to Hembygdsforeningen, Torget 10, 691 31 Karlskoga, or send e-mail to [email protected] We are anxious to hear the story of your emigrated forefathers and get copies of obituaries, citizenship papers, travel documents, pictures etc. for our emigrant records. In return we may have material that is of interest to you.

Iowa attracted many emigrants from Karlskoga.For people from our area with its limited conditions for farming the chance of getting a piece of fertile Iowa land was a great lift. We would like to know much more about their meeting with Iowa. How did they prepare themselves to take a homestead? How did they develop it?
