Serena, may I suggest that  you also post this request to "Skaraborg County Ancestry" on GenealogyWise. That group specializes in research in your family area, The moderator is very good.

Have you looked at any of the church books for Skövde?   In general, you can access them thru FamilySearch.org (a no-fee site) or thru Ancestry.com/Genline, SVAR or ArkivDigital.org (all fee sites). Your local FamilySearch family history center will probably have in-library free access with Ancestry or ArkivDigital.

Any more details about their marriage or exactly where they lived in Sweden (exact parish).  I will look when I get to the library.
