1. A very brief summary: [6 Oct 2019]

Per Engelbretsson was born in 1820 at Östmark parish in Värmland. For most of his adult life he lived at the farm/village of Björsviken, Östmark parish. Per was married twice. His first marriage in 1843 was to Kjerstin Månsdotter (1805-1853) from Björsviken. Per and Kjerstin had two children.

On 30 December 1854, Per Engelsbretsson remarried to Kjerstin Jonsdotter, and they had 8 children, with one dieing as an infant.

Per and Kjerstin Jonsdotter lived and worked at the farm/village of Björsviken much of their life. However, in 1888 they moved to Gudmundrå parish (about 500 kms to the north east and close to the coast) and lived with their son who had moved earlier in 1870. It was in Gudmundrå parish that both Per and Kjerstin Jonsdotter died. Per's children all had moved from Östmark. In the following chronological report I have included the parish/county that each had died in. I have not researched in detail Per Engelbretsson's grandchildren and other descendants - further research is needed.

Nils or Kils ... ?????; I also looked at Styrnäs moving in records for 1877 or 1878 but she is not recorded (no one from Östmark or from Värmland); also looked in Styrnäs, Torsåker, and Gudmundrå parishes and death records for Jul 1908, but nothing ??
