Berstrom

[mike linden]

My greatgrand father was a Gustaf Bergstrom, born about 1875. His father was Per and all l know about him was that by the time he married my greatgrand mother in 1902 his father was already deceased. Both appeared to be Bootmakers by profession. Gustaf was included in the 1901 census, living in London. There was also a Johan waldemar bergstrom living close by, though whether he is a relative l do not know; he did not have the same father as gustaf.
 Gustaf died about 1908 aged 34 l believe.as far as l am able to find out he had only one child, my grandmother ellen mabel bergstrom born in 1906 and they lived in camden town in london.
 
  if anyone can have any idea of anything about them or where l can attempt to get further information l would be grateful.

I found a Gustav Adolf born 1879-02-19 in Trollhättan, Västra Götalands län. His father was Per Bergström and his mother Helena Charlotta Forsström. The information is from www.slaktdata.org and is not a first hand sourse of information. Sorry for my poor englich, I hope you understand.

In the 1890 census the family mentioned above consisted of:
 
Per Nilsson, f. 1836 i Östmarks, arbetare(worker)
Marit Persdotter, f. 1840 i Östmarks
Johan Vilhelm, f. 1872 i Östmarks
Per Gustaf, f. 1874 i Östmarks
Vilhelmina, f. 1876 i Östmarks
Ida Elisabet, f. 1879 i Östmarks
Anna Sofia, f. 1883 i Östmarks
 
In the household exams you see that there were two older sisters, Karolina Bergström(!) b.1867 and Maria b.1869. There is also a younger brother, Oscar Vahlfrid b. 1886, maybe he died before the 1890 census.
 
In the household exam we also see than Per Nilsson and Marit Persdotter got married 26 Dec 1862. We also find the fact that Per Gustaf moved to Gävle 1893.
 
In the 1900 census Marit Persdotter is noted as widow, she is living with her daughter Karolina Persdotter Bergström and her husband Johan Olsson Bergqvist and their daughter Linea Maria Viola b. 1892
