Effie Edna Atlanta Sandstrom Johnson

Dad's mother, my grandmother, Effie Sandstrom was born on a ship enroute to the US. Her parents, Carl Magnus Sandstrom and Emma Christina Johannesdotter Sandstrom, had come to the US and for some reason they returned to Sweden for three years. They returned and settled in Denver, CO, and lived there until they died. Grandma went to Seattle to visit her sister and while there she met Karl Sixtus Johnson at church. They were soon married.
