Generation: 2

  1. 2.  Jonas PERSSON Descendancy chart to this point (1.Anna1) was born on 27 Feb 1842 in Mo Lit, Jämtlands län, Sweden; was christened on 2 Mar 1842 in Lit, Jämtlands län, Sweden; died on 5 Jan 1904 in Kläppe Marby, Jämtlands län, Sweden.

    Other Events and Attributes:

    • Occupation: Horse trading (“Hemmansegare”, or freeholder - owning farmer, according to the 1890 Swedish Census)

    Notes:

    He is called Jonas Pehrson in Jonas Petter’s birth record.

    The 65-78 household exam for their stay at Meikelsson in Marby seems to show that their marriage date was September 3, 1866.

    The 1890 Swedish Census record lists “Marby Annex” as Jonas’s parish of birth. It also shows (in the Arkion version) that at the time of that census the family resided in Hösen, in the parish of Marby Annex, in the county of Jämtlands.

    In the 1900 census, Jonas’s occupation is described as Lägenhetsinnehavare. At that time, all the children are gone and it’s just him and Karin. They are shown as residing in Kläppe, in the parish of Marby Jämtlands län, in the county of Jämtland.

    From the Kläppe Marby parish records, ineptly translated by DRC:

    1875 the family moved to Trappnäs in Hallen

    November 11, 1883 moved back to Marby; Märta was married October 7, 1885 in (to?) Frösön, Jonas Petter was confirmed in 1887

    November 13, 1891 Jonas Persson with wife Carin and Anna Catrina and Jonas Petter moved to Sölfbacken in Ovikens Socken {Could not find them in Sölfbacken at that time in the Household Exam. The 87-94 Household Exam for Hösen of Frappnäs says that the family of four, less Märta, moved to Oviken on November 9, 1891.}

    1894 moved to Västnor in Oviken

    August 20, 1894 Anna Catrina moved to North America

    November 20, 1898 Jonas Persson and wife Carin moved to Kläppe, No. 2, Marby; their son Jonas Petter did not move with them and remained in Oviken until 1900 when he moved to Östersund

    [Rudolph recounts that Jonas Persson died from cancer. He had earlier gone to a Stockholm specialist but to no avail.]

    October 16, 1909 there was an auction after widow Carin Jonsdotter's death which yielded a sum of 737:25

    Birth:
    21 Feb in the 1885-1894 Household Exam (Sölfbaken)

Generation: 3

  1. 4.  Anna Katarina JONSSON Descendancy chart to this point (2.Jonas2, 1.Anna1) was born on 23 Sep 1866 in Lit, Jämtlands län, Sweden; died on 7 Jan 1942 in Wisconsin; was buried in Volga Cemetery, Amery, Polk County, Wisconsin.

    Notes:

    The 1865-1878 Household Examination for Möikelasön in Marby does not show a birth location for her. Presumably, it’s Marby but she is not included in the 1866 list of births for Marby.

    According to the 1920 census, she emigrated in 1894 and was naturalized as a citizen in 1913.

    At the time of the 1910 census, the family was living in Lincoln Township, Polk County. The family consisted of Faste (“F”), 48, “Mrs. Anna”, 46, John R., 14, and Simon, 13. Also living with the family was Per Nelson, 73, uncle. Faste and Anna had been married for 16 years. She had had two children, both still living. Faste emigrated in 1891 and Anna in 1894. They owned their farm without mortgage. Although everyone could read and write, none of the three adults could speak English.

    Anna Catrina's great-granddaughter, wrote:

    " ... Anna Jonsson Valgren was my great-grandmother. I never knew her, of course, as she died the month that I was born, January 1942. In fact, my mother did not attend her funeral as she was so uncomfortable with me. It was strange how my great-grandfather died exactly 21 years later in January 1963 and I was expecting my first child (my son, Troy, 20 years) and I did not attend his funeral for the very same reason. I still think that is so strange. I was born Jan 22nd, my son was born Jan 23.

    " I do not know much about my great grandma except that she was a very fussy housekeeper (meticulous) and that she always wore floor length dress, always! And she always wore something on her head. She wore a hat in public and around the house, day or night, she wore one of those elasticized klutes. I think this is what they called them. From what I have heard, I think she was a very sensible and logical thinking person. Right up to her death. She had had a colostomy because of an obstruction in her colon. It was malignant and she lived just about one year after her surgery. And that is how long the doctor said she was going to live. She had always been a short heavy person most, all of her life. But that last year she went down to skin and bone. My grandmother Myrtle nursed her at home the last few weeks of her life. She loved vanilla ice cream and she had always eaten a lot of it. The day she died she was worried that there would not be enough blueberry sauce to go on it after the funeral and she wanted Faste to go to town in 30 below zero weather and get some. My grandma said she checked the cellar and there were better than 2 gallons of the sauce so Faste did not have to make that trip. Also, she asked my grandma to be sure and put her teeth in her mouth, as soon as she died, as she was in so much pain, she could not stand the teeth in her mouth while she was still alive. Now that takes character and fortitude to make a request like that when you are about to leave this world. At least I think so. I really look forward to meeting her in eternity and I am sure she will be a wonderful person.

    “My mother (Rose Marie) feels so bad now that she did not appreciate her grandma more when she was young. Because my mother said she really was so good in so many ways. But, mother said, she was even ashamed sometimes to be in town with her as no one wore those old long dark dresses and everyone looked at them..”

    Anna married Faste JOHANSSON, (Valgren) in 1895 in Wisconsin. Faste (son of Johan FASTESSON and Caroline NILSDOTTER) was born on 12 Sep 1862 in Frösö, Jämtlands län, Sweden; died on 2 Jan 1963 in Polk County, Wisconsin; was buried in Volga Cemetery, Amery, Polk County, Wisconsin.

  2. 5.  Jonas Petter JONSSONJonas Petter JONSSON Descendancy chart to this point (2.Jonas2, 1.Anna1) was born on 7 Aug 1871 in Marby, Jämtlands län, Sweden; died on 17 Mar 1949 in Milltown, Polk County, Wisconsin; was buried on 19 Mar 1949 in Milltown Cemetery, Polk County, Wisconsin.

    Other Events and Attributes:

    • Occupation: Stone cutter, farmer
    • Confirmation: Aug 1887, Kläppe Marby, Jämtlands län, Sweden

    Notes:

    Jonas Petter was confirmed in 1887 according to Kläppe Marby parish records (August 23 or 26 according to the Hösen of Frappnäs 87-94 Household Exam). He was still living at home (Hösen, Marby Annex) at the time of the 1890 Swedish census.

    From the Brunflo parish records, as translated ineptly by DRC:

    January 21, 1900 previously mentioned Jonas Petter moved from Oviken to Östersund for work, what kind of work we don’t know

    {This is consistent with what is shown in the 1900 Swedish census in which Jonas is shown as one of two bachelor farmhands living on the farm owned by Olof Huldberg at Gård N:o 53 in Östersund Jämtlands län.}

    May 10 to December 3, 1908, Märta Greta worked in Östersund where they met

    October 13, 1908 the newlyweds moved to Berge No. 1 in Brunflo at a farm owned by A. Genberg in Östersund

    1909 Jonas Petter and Märta Greta moved to No. 1 Åkre where their first children were born

    1914 According to information, they then lived in No. 2 Åkre for there Anna was born

    After that they moved to Viken, but what year can not be determined, because that move was not reported. The emigration certificate was printed from Åkre to North America on July 11, 1917.

    Jonas (46) and Marta (36) emigrated to the US from Sweden in August, 1917, with Rudolph (7), Karin (6), and Anna (3). According to EmiHamn, the family emigrated on August 18th, bound for Amery, WI. They crossed the Atlantic north of the German submarine zone during the World War. They arrived at Amery on September 25, 1917, via Ellis Island and Chicago.

    The Ellis Island records show:

    Bergensfjord, "sailing from Christiana," arrived at Ellis Island on September 22, 1917. Among the passengers were:

    Jonsson, Jonas Petter 45y
    Jonsson, Marta Greta 36y
    Jonsson, Jon Rudolf 7y
    Jonsson, Karin Margareta 6y
    Jonsson, Anna Teresia 2y

    and further down the page, just as Rudolph remembered:

    Ordell, Gustaf Vilhelm 25y

    All 6 were listed as "Sweden-Scand." for ethnicity and "Brunflo, Sweden" as place of residence.

    Here's the URL for a page on the Bergensfjord: http://www.museumsnett.no/mka/ssa/ber-fjor.htm

    The Jonssons (“Johnsons”) were renting a farm in Apple River township east of Balsam Lake at the time (March 31) of the 1920 Census. They had a boarder: a 36 year old Norwegian man named Nils Hildrum. They couldn’t have lived at the Apple River Twp farm for very long if Lizzie Swanson had to have lived nearby to be the midwife for the birth of Carl. (See next paragraph.)

    The Johnsons were renting a farm in Balsam Lake township at the time of the census in 1930. The household consisted of John P Johnson, 58, Martha, 49, Rudolph J, 20, Anna T, 15, and Carl R, 9. They did not have a radio. Karin is not listed so was not living at home. Their neighbors were the Axel Greens on one side and the Lester Fullers on the other. Oscar and Lizzie Swanson lived next to the Fullers.

    In the 1940 census, he was still John P Johnson. He and Martha, Rudolph, and Carl, lived in Balsam Lake Twp, “on south town line road near east end.” It was the same house that they lived in in 1935. John P is still a citizen of Sweden. A few entries down the form is the entry for Shirley Engels (#640) and his wife and daughter. John P and Martha had fifth grade educations, Rudolph and Carl were high school graduates.

    Jonas died from cancer, either prostate or bladder.

    Jonas’s pallbearers: Carl, Rudolph, Ed, Gene, Robert Valgren from St. Paul, and Simon Valgren from Amery.
