Infant Erickson Green Co., Wisconsin

DavidWV156809 — 2012-05-18 00:35:19Z

The grave marker in Green's Prairie Cemetery, Postville, Green Co., WI says "Infant Son of T. and E. Erickson". Do you know the parents? May be Trules and Engeber Erickson, but uncertain.

Re: Erickson's of Missouri

NAhiguchi — 2012-04-27 20:23:01Z

My paternal great grandparents were Neils "Eric" Erickson and Nancy Duckworth Erickson. Charles Milton Erickson b. May 26, 1882, was my grandfather. Charles and Minnie May Morgan, married, and had one child, my father, Nelson Burton Erickson, who married Kathleen Neuenschwander.

Charles died on April 15th, 1972, Minnie May died in August of 1946. My parents, Nelson and Kathleen Erickson, died January 1993.

I'd love to learn the names of Neils, my great-grandfather's parents, as they are listed as unknown on his death certificate.

Re: Abraham Erickson of Sweden

grandmanot — 2012-04-26 03:40:53Z

Iam Becky,daughter of Elmer,son of Charles,son of Abraham. I think that your father must have been John Wesley Erickson, your mother Beatrice Davis, and that you are facebook friend. Your sisters are Nancy and Ann, and brothers are John Jr. and William (Billy). Your Uncle Leonard Died recently in Florida.

My Ancestry family is current, but past the generation of ours I am short on concrete information. Nellie Herman gave Abraham's trunk to her daughter Hazel and she cleaned my Grandmothers house for many years. Grandma Erickson was blind and Charles was crippled due to a logging accident.

I knew that Abraham had Sweden because of some mistreatment, and have found a couple of family lines that look as if they are at least connected to Abraham's sibs. I had heard the his brother had come looking for him, and weather they had connected or not I do not know.

One of your brothers and a Werner maintain the cemetery off of Miller and Port Orieda roads in the Sleeping Bear Natl. Park. But I have not been successful in connecting with him.

It is difficult to trace much family in Sweden as many sons and daughters Surnames depended on their fathers first name. Also daughters surnames were sometimes a combination of fathers first name and ending in "dotter". Some parts of Sweden all first names of children the same but middle names different.

My mother was a Lautner which proved much easier as someone had already collected a family record. All though there are so many of them that have the same first names that it can be confusing. I have tried to include all the sibs in families where I can. So others can sometimes find their roots.

I my roots there are Eitzens, Inmans, Wellers, Warners, and on mom's side Lautners, Carpenters,Hermans, mostly in Leelanau County. I have been looking for Hockeborns, Elsners, for sometime now.

Now that the 1940 census is up I have found of my parents generation recently.

Re: Abraham Erickson of Sweden

janjee71 — 2012-04-26 02:18:01Z

I am Janet, daughter of John, son of William, son of Abraham, son of Erik. What I have been told by my father is that Abraham fled Sweden because as a laborer he had to kiss the boot of the land owner when he got his pay and he would not do so and hence the message that we do not "kiss the boot". He supposedly had brothers left in Sweden. One may have come through Michigan and was seen at the train station in Traverse City. Most if not all of Abraham's grandchildren have passed and hence knowledge of his birthplace (somewhere near Stockholm). His daughter Nellie had his trunk from Sweden and gave it to one of her daughters who sold it. Oh, Catharine's maiden name was Werner. Abraham came in 1871, got off a ship that transported lumber to Chicago at Good Harbor Bay. He then ran to Leland and filed a homestead claim.

Erick Erickson, Storm Lake, Iowa

cjmoldenhauer — 2012-04-21 15:33:10Z

Erick came to america about 1870 and he was married to Sophia, maiden name unknown. They lived in the Storm Lake area for many years, their adopted daughter was Alma who married Carl Oscar Turnwall around 1905.
Sadly this is all the information I have.
His parents names are unknown, they were born and died in Sweden.
Erick had a sister Anna who married Peter Peterson or Elwood we haven't confirmed his real last name.
Anyone who may have information on Erick please contact me

Re: Looking for info on Maurice Erickson b. 1901 in MN

apztkk — 2012-04-11 23:05:35Z

My father in law is Arthur Maurice - I wonder if they are related somehow - that's not a very common name! I know he wouldn't be one of his aunts or uncles - but the right age to be - so maybe a cousin to his dad - who is also Arthur Erickson born 1903 (middle name Walfrid) they lived in the Red Lake area - but later moved to Plummer, MN. They have many, many relatives in that area!

ampy01 — 2012-03-28 18:25:51Z

Looking for information on John W. Erickson and his family. John was born in 1862 in Sweden. Married Hannah Peterson in 1891 and had daughter Edna E. born in 1892. They lived in Danbury, Connecticut.
Edna died in 1974. John possibly had a brother Fritz Erickson, born 1853 in Sweden. Any and all information would be appreciated. Thank you.

larrymelander0813 — 2012-03-20 02:39:17Z

I want to thank you for all the great help. I've been busy the last few days incorporating alot of info from your tree into mine and searching records to fill it out.

Only big issues for me is trying to figure out whatever happened to Andrews and August's sister Johanna who came over with them but I can't trace after that.

Also is their mother Helena- she emigrated bringing along Hanna Sophia Rosenberg (adopted in Sweden by John E. Lidquist) and the Meeker county historical album indicates she was a resident in 1888 but I can't seem to find her.

Let me know if you stumble across anything in this area.

Again Thanks.

larrymelander0813 — 2012-03-20 02:35:07Z

My family tree has several Erickson's that initially emigrated to America settling in the Brocton, NY area around 1872. Two brothers August and Andrew moved later to Minnesota. One sister, Johanna emigrated with her brother August and is assumed to have settled in Brocton area but we lose track of her after that. Wondering if this might be a connection.

Glad to help...I will try to get a scan of August's death cert for you, and also a scan of a picture of August and Christina. I'll figure out how to do that. Also planning a trip to Litchfield in the near future to visit family and plan to do some research when I'm there. I don't have any obits on any of the ericksons so will be searching for that.

Re: John E Erickson Lidquist

larrymelander0813 — 2012-03-17 22:47:00Z

Outstanding- thanks a ton. Sometimes you end up guessing based on what looks right but you always have that little doubt. Nice when you can get someone in the family tree corroborate some of the information greatly increasing the confidence.

Do you have any information on Johan E. Lidquists' wife? Do you have access to Johan's or his wifes or his brothers obituaries? My Swedish records point towards towards one person but other family trees show a similar name but different birth date.

Re: John E Erickson Lidquist

pinkzinnia — 2012-03-17 01:11:54Z

Here is what I have.

August Erickson b. 3 Oct 1851 d. 9 May 1929
Married to Christina Peterson b. 1849 d. 1890
Married in Brocton NY July 20th 1873
Settled in Greenleaf Township Meeker County Mn
children are as follows:
Anna, b. 1874
Hildur, b. 1876
Selma, b. 1878
Freda, b. 1880
Agda, b. 1882
Edward, b.1884
Albert, b. 1885
Ester, b. 1885

Christina died shortly after giving birth to Ester. I encourage you to take a look at the Album of Meeker County history as it gives a biographical sketch on both August and Andrew and many other early residents of meeker county. Andrews last name was changed from Erickson to Lee, which I have since learned from another ancestry tree. Hope this helps.

Re: John E Erickson Lidquist

pinkzinnia — 2012-03-16 23:15:51Z

Yes, I do have a tree, but have kept it private. I don't have any documents or pictures on it. I'm still kind of learning my way around the ancestry site. I'd be happy to scan the death cert for you. How shall I get it to you?

August came thru the Jamestown area as well. He was married in Brocton, Ny. If you google Albumn of Meeker County History, then August Erickson you will find a really beautiful book on meeker county history. You can browse the book at National Archives website. Also Andrew erickson Lee is in this book.

I noted on one of the passenger lists that August has a companion with him...Johanna. Is this his sister?

I'm so happy to finally confirm August parents names and that they match fairly closely with what is stated on his death cert. I've been confused by this as I've seen other names as well.

Thanks...

Re: John E Erickson Lidquist

larrymelander0813 — 2012-03-16 22:56:54Z

Another question- if you know any of August's spouse, siblings names, dob, etc it would help in tracking down ancestry.com records that apply to him. Also anything on Andrew or his family.

Re: John E Erickson Lidquist

larrymelander0813 — 2012-03-16 22:29:44Z

I agree- it looks like your August was the brother of Johan based on his age. I checked your profile and I didn't find a family tree where you have put this information.

Would be interested in a scan of August's death certificate and any other info such as obituraries, etc.

Re: John E Erickson Lidquist

pinkzinnia — 2012-03-16 14:52:50Z

Hi,
I don't have much on John Erickson Lidquist except he was the brother of my Great Grandfather August Erickson. I have August Erickson's death cert which lists his parents as Erick Erickson and Helen ?.
I've also seen on another ancestry tree his (August) parents listed as Anders Paulsen Erichsen (1809-1862) and Bodel Marie Nisdr Lund (1809-?).
My August Erickson's birth date is oct.4, 1851. August farmed in greenleaf along with his brothers John and Andrew. Looks like you did a lot of research to find out much about the ericksons in Sweden. Pink zinnia

Re: Ericksons Yates Child; MS, OK, TX ?

carolynm1 — 2012-03-16 04:13:43Z

Have you been able to find out anything more of your James Buford Yates? I believe his father, John J. Yates, was the brother of my gggrandfather, William Weslely Yates. William Wesley's parents were John j. Yates and Ann Yates, enumerated in NC in 1850 and were in Kemper Co. prior to 1870 where they were enumerated in the 1870 census record. John J. Jr. had a brother and and sister-in-law living in the household in Jones Co. in 1880, James Thomas and Amanda. I found a J.T. Yates and Mandy Yates in Texas in later census records with the same personal info as the James and Amanda (same age and places of birth) with John J. Yates in Jones Co., MS. Their older children were born in MS, one child in OK and then the rest in TX. Don't know if this is the same person but it is interesting.

John E Erickson Lidquist

larrymelander0813 — 2012-01-20 02:17:15Z

Am looking for information on John Erickson Lidquist. He was born in Oct 1844 in the Stora Mellby area of Sweden (Skara Stift). He emigrated to America about 1873 aand settled in Meeker county Minnesota. He adopted a child from the Stockholm orphanage in around 1870- her name was Johanna Sofia Rosenberg. She emigrated about 1875. When she grew up, she married Andrew Peter Melander in Litchfield, Meeker County, Minnesota around 1885. I'm trying to find information on John once he got to Minnesota- was he married, etc.

I am Hulda's granddaughter, Stephanie Nelson Schmit (my father is Gordon Victor Nelson - Hulda's son).
I just started work online @ ancestry.com last year. Just this week also made a connection with Shirley Erickson Peterson (daughter of Walter Erickson with his second wife).

I know this is an old post but hopefully you are still online and we could connect more of the family. Am copying below information Shirley just sent me.
Yes, the
Erickson tree is rather dead end. I will have to share the information that
I have and probably you have most of the same. I saw ( and I don't know how
to get back to it, that someone had added the picture of the two older
sibling and the younger three along with the stern Andrew and Anna on
Ancestry.com. In my research Anna has gone by several different names. Her
records in Sweden are Anna Marie and I have seen here in the US as Mary Ann,
Anna M, and just plain Marie. The marriage license in Chisago County has her
as Mary BERG. I don't know where the Berg came from, maybe they
misunderstood her or if she had to write her name the e and o were kind of
alike. Everything I have seen has her as Borg in the US. Actually her name
in Sweden was Anna Marie Hakansdotter. I researched and found that she had a
grandfather that had the last name of Borg and that's maybe why she took the
name of Borg in the US. Seems like that was common practice to change name
when the Swedes came to the US which makes researching family trees so
difficultYes, my dad was the nursing baby and that is the only thing that
saved his life.My brother Rollin while he was still alive, my sister and I
place a memorial stone at the Fish Lake Baptist cemetery for the six aunts
and uncles the passed away so suddenly.

Dr. Erickson will preach at the Government Street Presbyterian Church Sunday morning.

"Dr. and Mrs. Erickson are stationed at Takamatsu, Japan, and have been missionaries to that country for 31 years. They are in this country on furlough. ... Born in Minnesota, Dr. Erickson came to Mobile while a young man, and was associate secretary of the Y.M.C.A. under Dr. A.C. Harte. ...

The copy I have is terrible. I can try to get a better one next time I am in Rock Springs, here's what I have:

Instanly Killed by Fall of Rock in Mine.

Instant death from a fall of rock
while working in Mine No# 4 of the
Union Pacific Coal company was the
fate meted out to Carl W. Erickson
Monday afternoon at 1:30 o'clock.
Mr. Erickson was following his regu
lar vocation as a coal miner when he
was suddenly engulfed in about fifty
tons of coal and rock, and it took a
force of workmen three hours to ex
tricate his bady from under the huge
mass of coal. Death was instantan
eous, as were a leg and several other
bones in his body mashed to a pulp.
Charles Ratkaj, a fellow compan
ion and working partner, fled when he
saw that danger was (imatunet?) and es
caped injury, the great vibration of
the fall throwing him back and out of
danger.
The dead man was born in Sweden
in July, 1888. He came to American
with his parents when four years of
age and for several years after reach
ing manhood, followed his trade as
carpenter. He came to Rock Springs
about two years ago from Minot, North
Dakota, arriving here with his wife
and three young daughters, who sur
vive his untimely death. These, togeth
er with his parents, residents of
Bruces, Michigan and three sisters
and one brother, who reside in Chica
go, are sadly stricken over his sudden
death.
Mr. Erickson was a member of Local
2309, U. M. of A., also of Carpen
ter's Union No. 1620.
Funeral services willl be conducted
from the family residence at 211 Thom
as street. Saturday afternoon.

I searched the cemetery when he is listed as being
buried but could not fine him. The cemetery had been update in the 70's and many head stones where lost.
The house in which he lived is still standing and if you are interested I could send you a picture of it.

I found the following on the DVD "Swedish death index 1901-2009"

Per August Östling, b. 12 SEP 1863 in Leksand, Kopparbergs län, Dalarna. Died 25 OCT 1951 in Östanvik 101, Ore, Kopparbergs län, Dalarna. Widowed 24 NOV 1944.

I couldn't find Viktor.

I found the following on the emigration DVD EMIBAS:

Anna Mathilda Östling, b. 25 APR 1867 in Falu Kristine, Kopparbergs län, Dalarna. Emigrated 14 JUN 1887 from Östanvik 22, Ore, Kopparbergs län, Dalarna to the US. Not married at the time of emigration.

Carl Gustaf Östling, b. 4 FEB 1869 in Falu Kristine, Kopparbergs län, Dalarna. Emigrated 4 MAR 1891 from Kvarter 33 Gård 25, Falu Kristine, Kopparbergs län, Dalarna to the US. Occupation: Tailor.

You can find out if Frida Erika Östling had any more children by contacting the regional archives asking them to have a look at her will where her children (if any) will be mentioned. Give them the data I gave above and be specific about the fact that you just want to find out if she had any children and their full names and birth data and preferably where they live now if they are still alive.

Regional archives for Kopparberg is: Uppsala: http://www.riksarkivet.se/default.aspx?id=7950

You can use this site http://tinyurl.com/3s7ewbf after receiving the information about her children. The site holds information about almost everyone paying tax in Sweden today and it will give you their address if you want to get in contact.

Changing their last name from Högberg to Erickson is a bit odd, it would usually be the other way around. Swedish people usually changed their name from Svensson, Andersson, Eriksson etc to something that wasn't so common. Högberg would be something that they would change to, not from.

Good luck!
