    E. Almquist is listed with 5 males and 2 females:
    Emanuel, Carl, John, Axell and Gustaf Victor must be the males.
    Anna and Clara must be the females.

    3 born in United States: John Robert, Carl Julius and ?
    4 born in Scandinavia: Gustaf Eric, Anna Johanna, Alma Sofia and Potencia Suafer.
    Males are probably Gustaf, John Robert, Carl Julius and perhaps a son who did not live. (in the 1900 US Census Anna stated that she had given birth to 9 children but I am only aware of 7).
    Females would be Anna Johanna, Alma Sofia and Potencia Suafer.

    I do not know who the other male would be. They have listed that 3 were born in the US so I believe that they had a son that did not survive or that I do not know about.
