I really need help to make a census look up.

Lennart, I did some research and found the following.Richard Anderson,1920 U.S. Federal Census January 21,1920,Camp Dodge Iowa,31yrs.,Born abt.1889 Sweden,Immigrated-1906,Naturalized Citizen-1912.If he was born Feb.12, his birth year should be 1888 though if he was already 31 in January of 1920.It looks like it says Father was born in Kioeden or Keoiden but it's very hard to read the script handwriting.That was all I was able to find.If you have anymore information such as parents names,wife name,siblings,children,places he lived etc.I would be happy to look further into this for you.

It will take time to look through all the passenger lists, etc. so I would have to charge you. I have access to the internet but since I'm in Florida, the local genealogy library here would not have records in Iowa, I don't think. I haven't checked though. The library covers mostly the southern states.
