Notes |
- Per Yvonne and her sources, including Chris, Per Petersson, farmhand, moved from Mjudehult in Karlslunda/Arby, Sweden, to Vossevangen, Norway, on 7 January 1881. He was the stepson of navy soldier Olaus Pettersson Löfving married to Stina Larsdotter. Per was born in Torsås 2 June 1853. The birth book in Torsås says Peter August (!) born 2 June 1853 to maid Stina Larsdotter (no father given) at Isaksmåla farm. He had been to Norway earlier because he has a note of 'work permit' 1880.
Yvonne and her sources say that Peter went from Sweden to Norway on that 1880 work permit presumably as a laborer who worked on the Vossebanen (Bergen - Voss) railroad which opened in 1883.
In the 1900 census, he was a farmer in Ward Twp, Todd County, Minnesota. He and his family are listed next to the Erick Thompsons (#219) on the 1900 census form. The same was true for the 1905 Minnesota state census and the 1910 U.S. census.
In the 1920 census, the Thompsons have left Todd County but Peter, his wife, and their three younger sons still live in Todd County but now Eagle Valley Twp.
In the 1930 census, Peter and Amanda still live in Eagle Valley Twp but now Peter’s widowed son Anton and Anton’s five children live with them.
