Would like to know where the historic town of Swan Lake was located. My great-grandmother Ingeborg Kittelson Kolbrek and her husband Hans Kolbrek lived there in 1882 and had a daughter there named Lina. In addition, was there ever a town named Searsboro, IA? We think that one of Ingeborg's children is buried there (she had nine children, 4 of which died in infancy.
