Hi Diane,
 
I see that you have an interest in the Blomgren family. What is your connection to that family?
Axel Jonatan was born in Misterhult but the family moved early to nearby Kristdala. Axel moved later to Stockholm and studied photography. He married a girl from Kristdala and moved to Klippan, Skåne, where he started a career as photographer. He became very well known there, and after his death his two sons donated his large collection of glass-negatives to the local museum where they still can be viewed. http://www.blomgrensbilder.se/historik.html
 
His two sons Wilhelm and Tore also took up photography and established themselves in Helsingborg.
 
In 1951 Tore made a film about Kristdala. It is a documentary and according to a report in the local paper it was shown to an audience of over 700 people. Today it should have a great historical value.
The Kristdala Society for Local History would love to make a copy of that film but no one seems to know where it is. Tore died unmarried in 1986 in Limhamn Skåne.
