Are you saying they were twins? I don't see them if that is true.

However, here is a family which might be yours.

I looked at the handwritten birth record for Anders using Swedish parish records found on the fee-based Genline site.

http://www.genline.comhttp://www.genline.com

This is the specific page where that birth record can be found if you subscribe to Genline.

GID # (Genline Identification Number) 100021.5.51700

Anders was born on 24 July 1865 in Bergsjö, Gävleborgs län = county. The birth record lists the parents of Anders as
the farmer Olof Andersson (no Enlund yet; he must have used Enlund later) and his wife Brita Johansdotter who lived in Södra Elgered number 1 in that parish. The mother was 28? years old. There was no sign of any twin named Peter, Petrus, or anything else born at that time to those parents.

The birth record for Petrus can be found on this Genline page.

GID # 100021.23.24900

Petrus was born 13 January 1875 in Bergsjö parish. His parents were listed as farmer Olof Andersson Enlund at S. (Södra) Elgered number 1 (in that parish) and his wife Brita Johansdotter. They had been married 9 ? years. The mother was 37 years old.

This looks like a good possibility for you but I'm confused that you said "they" were born on July 24, 1865. Were they really twins?

I also checked an emigration database called Emibas. Emibas was made from registrations with the Swedish parish to go to a foreign country. It is about 75% complete.

This is Petrus. He emigrated in 1892 and not in 1893, however.

Enlund Olofsson, Petrus
Bondson = son of a farmer. (unmarried man)

from Södra Elgered, Bergsjö, Gävleborgs län (Hälsingland)
to Quebec, Canada

I don't see Anders on that cd.
