Thanks for the added pieces.

Have confirmed with my brother in law that family oral history had Carl in USA for a period and that he was trying to find his father.

He is very excited about the information you have provided

Hi
I have managed to trace Sven Andersen and Karen Olsen (Sven Andersson and Karin Olsdotter (Olsson)) back to Sweden.
According to the above census records they were from Sweden and luckily their whereabouts in Sweden were recorded in their marriage record.

Their marriage record from Kristrup Parish in Denmark in 1873 - nr 5:

Sven Andersson Lydig born 14 July 1840 in Kronoborg Län (County) in Sweden
Karen Olsson born 5 Dec 1848 in Sölvesborg Parish in Sweden

On the right side there is a note stating that Sven left Sweden for Christrups Parish Denmark 29/2 1872. (He later married in this parish to Karin in 1873).

Here is an explanation about soldier's names in Sweden.
"Lydig" in English means Obedient.

Here is a letter from the army doctor stating that Anders Lydig is too frail to continue as a soldier.

Thanks for all the added info.  Processing all that now.

In doing more digging I found a few more children for Svend Andersen and Karen Olesen

Based on birth/Baptism info I believe they had the following children

Gunil Ellevira Nathalia Andersen 1871–
   

Emma Mathilde Andersen  1873–
   

Johan Alfred Andersen 1875–  He married in Denmark in 1902 and I have found 4 children
   

Carl Edward Andersen Sr 1877–1960
   

Gustav Emil Andersen 1879–1951  He was on the 1901 Denmark census with mother and a sibling but no Svend so he must have gone to US by then.  Gustav came to US in 1907. He married "Cecilia" and they had two children A daughter is listed as contact on a 1942 military document so possibly Celia had passed by then
   

Udøbt Drengebarn Andersen 1880–
   

Vilhelm Valdemar Andersen 1881–  Fins a Vilhelm V Andersen in US but nothing to confirm this is the same man
   

Alfrida Sofie Andersen 1884–  She was with mother and brother in 1901 census
