Maria Johansdotter Lundell married Henry Kringsberg, a preacher in Sweden, in 1876. They emigrated to the US in 1886. With the help of internet friends, I have located this information from a Sweden registry:
Johansdotter Henriksson, Maria --- Hustru (married woman)
b. 9/26/1854 in Södra Finnskoga, Värmlands län (Värmland)
Emigrated 8/1/1886 from Kringsberget, Södra Finnskoga, Värmlands län (Värmland)
to Nordamerika

Their first child was Mary D Elizabeth Kringsberg. I'm wondering if this is her with her parents, perhaps taken before the next child was born (in 1881) so she would be 4-5 years old here? Maria died shortly after arriving in America (1888). "Doug Windle who is also researching the Linden and Kringsberg family wrote that Mary Johnson Lundell Married Kringsberg ( a preacher in Sweden) was on a train and got off to get some milk for the baby - fell under the train and had her leg cut off (died) the children were separated and Anna was raised by Pete and Lizzie Liden."
To follow up the family chain, my father (Oliver), his mother, Myrtle. Her mother Anna, and her mother is Maria Lundell. (My second great grandmother). Anna married Charley Liden, and Peter (Per) Liden is Charley's older brother.
