Biography
Lars Johan Hierta was the founder of Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet. Due to the critical views expressed in Aftonbladet, the paper was several times banned from publishing, which Hierta circumvented by launching it as a "new" paper under a slightly modified name.
Lars Johan Hierta was born in Uppsala 23 January 1801. He was the son of Carl Hierta and his wife Hedvig Schméer.[1]
In 1825 the registrar in Bergskollegiun, L. J. Hierta, lived in Klara parish.[2]
Lars Johan Hierta married Vilhelmina Fröding 7 December 1833. They eventually had five daughters. In 1845-46 Book printer and publisher L. J. Hierta and his family lived in the qaurter Palamides in Stockholm Old Town, where Hierta owned a house.[3]
Their household in Klara parish in Stockholm in 1851 consisted of Hierta and his wife, four unmarried daughters, a sister-in-law, a housekeeper, three maids and a manservant, in addition (unnamed) a cashier, seven book keepers, two boys and two workmen.[4]
Lars Johan Hierta died in Stockholm, Klara, 20 November 1872.[5]

We plan on featuring Lars alongside Noah Webster, the Example Profile of the Week, in the Connection finder on December 9. Between now and then is a good time to take a look at the sources and biography to see if there are updates and improvements that need made, especially those that will bring it up to WikiTree Style Guide standards. We know it's short notice, so don't fret too much. Just do what you can. A Team member will check on the profile Tuesday and make changes as necessary.
Thanks! Abby
