Johan Victor Persson

[Carol Kemp]

I am still tracking Johan Victor Persson, born 30 Apr 1848, Bodarne, Ramundeboda, Orebro, Sweden. He is listed as Moving Out from Ramundeboda in 1875 from Pa Socken to ?  Can you tell me what this says?  Thanks, Carol

It says W. Wåla, which should be Västervåla socken. That's in Västmanland county, and I guess that is what is written above, even if it doesn't really look like it

"Westerås län" it says, Västerås being the largest city in Västmanland.

Here he is by the way, number 6:

Kalle,


Thanks so much for your reply.  Johan has been difficult to follow as he has moved so much. I found him in the household records for Vastervala, but he is again moving.  Can you read what this record says?

Yes, it's Hvittinge, or Vittinge as it's spelled these days. You will find him here:

Kalle,


Thank you again.  You have been most helpful.  I see that he is was a railroad worker, so that may be why he moved so much.  I noticed that this said AR Hotel at the top.  So I assume he was living in a hotel, possibly owned by the railroad??

I have got no clue but I guess you're right

Kalle,


With your help I was able to track Johan Victor's emigration to America.  Some of his family ended up in Washington state where I live.  So thanks again for your help.
