Hans ERIKSSON

Other Events and Attributes:

• Baptism: 11 Mar 1849, Rättvik, Dalarnas län, Sweden

Notes:

He and Kerstin left Wikarbyn for Minnesota in N. Amerika with his parents on 21 Apr 1886. The out-migration record, in which he is listed as Elias Hans Eriksson (perhaps implying he lived at or was born at the Elias residence) says that he and his wife were entry 347/2 in the household examination.

They are, indeed, at 347/2 for Wikarbyn 132 in the 1878-1887 Rättvik Household Examination. No children are listed.

In the 1895 Minnesota census, a Hans Erickson (indexed as Hana), age in his forties, lives in Minneapolis. He is a laborer and has been in the state for 8 years. Living with him is Hulda Segerstrom, age 51.

Hans married Kerstin OLSDOTTER on 25 Mar 1873. Kerstin was born on 8 Jun 1850 in Rättvik, Dalarnas län, Sweden. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Other Events and Attributes:

• Baptism: 22 Aug 1819, Rättvik, Dalarnas län, Sweden

Notes:

Greg Loftness’s family tree on Ancestry calls him “Mårs Erick Erickson,” born on or in Mårs in Rättvik.

Presumably, he is the Erik Eriksson listed above, and on the same page as, Daniel and Brita in the 1878-1887 Household Examination. His wife is shown as Brita Hansdotter and they have a daughter, Anna, b. 1851, living with them.

In the 1868-1877 Household Examination he and his family are listed at 274/2, Wikarbyn No. 46.

The 1878-1887 Household Examination (Rättvik, 276/2, Wikarbyn) says that Erik left for North Amerika on 21 Apr 1886, out-migration record number 24. Presumably Erik left with his wife. The last entry in the household examination is in the 1886 column.

In the Out-Migration book in the Rättvik church records, he and his wife are entry 24 for the year 1886. The are shown as leaving Wikarbyn for Minnesota in N. Amerika on 21 Apr 1886. Leaving with them are his son Hans Ersson, b. 10 Mar 1849 and Hans’s wife Kerstin Olsdotter, b. 8 Jun 1850.

The Minnesota state census of 1895 appears to have him and his wife living in Wyanett in Isanti County.

A different Erik Erickson died in Iowa 1912. His probated will in Franklin County refers to his sons Carl and Emil as his heirs.

Eric married Brita Hansdotter BEYER on 26 Dec 1841 in Rättvik, Dalarnas län, Sweden. Brita (daughter of Hans DANIELSSON and Brita ERICSDOTTER) was born on 14 Dec 1818 in Rättvik, Dalarnas län, Sweden; died on 3 Aug 1906 in Rättvik, Dalarnas län, Sweden. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Other Events and Attributes:

• Baptism: 14 Dec 1818, Rättvik, Dalarnas län, Sweden

Notes:

Greg Loftness’s family tree on Ancestry calls her “Mårs Brita Hansdotter,” born on or in Mårs in Rättvik. He also has her dying in Rättvik on 3 Aug 1906, consistent with “Sweden, Indexed Death Records.” She must have returned to Sweden after emigrating to Minnesota with her husband and son in 1886.

Referred to as Brita Bizer on Daniel’s death certificate. Another interpretation of that last name (in FamilySearch) is Bijes.

FamilySearch has her as Brita Maria Hansdotter, b. 26 Jan 1817, d. 1880.
