Hi,
I´m looking for any information about the nine siblings with last name Persson, who emigrated to America between the years 1890-1911.
They were all born in Veinge/Weinge in Halland county, SWEDEN.
Their father Per Svensson was born 1845 in Veinge. He died in 1902 (pneumonia). He was married two times. His first wife, Petronella Persdotter (b 1841), gave birth to five children. She was only 40 years old when she died in 1882.
-Bengt Peter Persson (b 1869)
-Johan August Persson (b 1871) emigrated in 1890
-Emma Mathilda Persson (b 1874)
-Sven Isak Persson (b 1876) emigrated in 1895
-Clara Carolina Persson (b 1879) emigrated in 1900
Second wife, Kristina Larsdotter, was born 1861 in Veinge. She gave birth to seven children. She died in 1904 (gastric ulcer), only 42 years old.
-Per Adolf Persson (b 1884) emigrated in 1904
-Axel Gottfrid Persson (b/d 1885)
-Alma Brittina Persson (b 1886) emigrated in 1903 to NY
-Julia Magnhild Persson (b 1889) emigrated in 1905 to NY, 25 West 120 Street
-Edla Viktoria Persson (b 1892) emigrated in 1907 to NY, 60 West 12 Street
-Hjalmar Algot Persson (b 1894) emigrated in 1911 to NY, 1316 Sterling Place
-Tekla Anette Persson (b 1898) emigrated in 1911 to NY, 1316 Sterling Place
Where did they settle down? Marriage, children?
It would be most intresting to get information about the children from the second marriage, because Kristina Larsdotter is a relative to us.
Many thanks in advance!
Kindly,
Marie
