Note: left Sweden 1893 Jan 27 destination Odebolt Iowa. Hi Scott, I spotted your query just before going to Salt Lake City to do research. I believe your ancestor was born in Skaraborg, Sweden. There are extracts of births/marriages/deaths for that county in 1868. The film number from the Family History Library is 0,201,186 for 1868. If you know the exact date of birth it should be fairly easy to find - you would have to go through the first part of the film - the births - page by page looking for the date and her name. The county is broken into parishes so you would have to go through each one. Without the date you would have to be more painstaking and go line by line and keep your fingers crossed that there is only one Augusta born that year. The extracts would give you her parents names, probably their birthdates and the farm. Then you could go to the clerical survey for that time period to find other children in the family. Good luck. Let me know if you find her. Has anyone given you any help in finding your Gustaf Emil Freed?
