  Research Notes:

NOTE: I have found little/no information on him in the US records???? [6 May 2022]



Östmark (S) AIIa:1 (1900-1909) Page 34, Boseberg af Rådem, (Rundsjötorp)
Johan August Persson, b 4 Jun 1876, Östmark .... he moves to North America, 5 Jun 1905 **
- only he moves; wife stays in Swe and is recorded on page 29, vol AIIa:3 and then she moves to in 1917
wife, Ingeborg Jönsdotter, b 20 Jan 1872, Östmark
and son, Axel Ludvig, b 14 Feb 1899 - he stays in Sweden - name as Axel Ludvig Johansson, married with 5 children, vol AIIa:8 (1930-1939), North Metbacken, Östmark [page 665]
dau, Hedvig Maria, b 23 Jan 1901; she marries in 1921 and stays in Sweden


** Värmlänningar i Nordamerika, image 305: "Familjen kvar"; last address, Minneapolis, died 31 Dec 1921
[Familjen kvar=the family left]

[ **some other Ancestry FTs, search: Johan A Person, b 1876, Östmark; lived in Minnesota, died 1921, Minneapolis ]
- but none record any source information, so can't verify his death; a couple record a death in 1921, but no source

- not indexed on Ancestry, re census; a few names on FamilySearch, but none make any sense

*** It is not clear why he left - possibly the plan was for him to go first (maybe even to see his father) and she would join him later, or he planned to go back to Sweden, but never did OR this was type of separation
