Biography

Per Persson Berglund was born on March 30th, 1812.

"Per Persson Berglund was probably not born in Pitholm, which is in Piteå landsförsamling (rural parish). I don't find him in the birth book at or near the given date. Possibly he was born in Piteå town, but there is a gap in the birth records there from 1806 to 1823 (looks like they lost a whole notebook).

When Per Persson Berglund married Christina Larsdotter, he was a worker from Pitholm, she was a farmer's daughter in Håkansön (where they settled). Piteå landsförsamling EI:4 (1831-1854) Bild 32 / sid 27 (AID: v138664.b32.s27, NAD: SE/HLA/1010154)

When they are first in the book for Håkansön, there is a scribble that makes it possible to figure out where to find him in Pitholm. Piteå landsförsamling AI:7a (1835-1843) Bild 214 / sid 207 (AID: v138587.b214.s207, NAD: SE/HLA/1010154) - and in Pitholm you discover that he was a widower when he married Christina.

His first wife was Anna Fredrika Marklund, born in 1809 and dead 7 March 1840. They had two boys, both named Johan Peter, neither lived to be two months old. They were married in 1835 and came to Pitholm from Piteå town in December 1836.

"I think I found him. There was some misleading info along the way - his birth date had been mistranscribed when he moved. This is what I did:

Working backwards from when he lived in Pitholm with first wife, all sources accessed via Arkiv Digital

Per Persson Berglund marriage to Anna Fredrika Marklund 3 Nov 1836 (3/11 1836) Living in Strömåhs but native to Piteå Stad Piteå stadsförsamling C:2 (1823-1841) Bild 119 (AID: v138719.b119, NAD: SE/HLA/1010155)

Per Persson (Berglund added here) living in Stjärnan 59-60 Piteå born 30 Sep 1812 (30/9 1812); moved in from Pite landsförsamling 1834, moved out to Strömnäset Piteå stadsförsamling AI:3a (1832-1841) Bild 213 / sid 204 (AID: v138686.b213.s204, NAD: SE/HLA/1010155)

Per Persson (no Berglund) moved out as #62 to Piteå stad. 2 Nov 1834 (2/11 1834) Born 30/3 1812 (so maybe born in March?) from p. 204 (hidden in the clutter at the bottom) Piteå landsförsamling B:1 utflyttningsbok (1833-1860) Bild 77 / sid 73 (AID: v138636.b77.s73, NAD: SE/HLA/1010154)

So maybe this is him: 30 Mar 1812 Pehr born to bonden (farmer) Pehr Jonsson in Håkansön and its wife Christina Eriksdotter Piteå landsförsamling CI:7 (1804-1815) Bild 130 / sid 250 (AID: v138647.b130.s250, NAD: SE/HLA/1010154)

Working forward from there:

Pehr Pehrsson 30/3 1812 dräng at Håkansön #13 - moves to Pite stad 2/11 1834 Piteå landsförsamling AI:7a (1835-1843) Bild 211 / sid 204 (AID: v138587.b211.s204, NAD: SE/HLA/1010154)

So this connects with the moving-out book; I'm convinced it's him."
