Person:Peter Jonasson (3)

His birth record is in the Tjureda parish records, Kronobergs county. The latest available record is 1855-1860.

Photo Album Note: the December 28, 1889  Bouppteckning is the event and documentation of evaluating and making an inventory of the  deceased Peter's goods and chattels, i.e. "deciding what there is". Performed after every death when any belongings are left.  Not the same as English "probate" which deals only with wills.

Some reports indicate he sold the Sodregard farm to his son, Johannes, on February 18, 1889.

=======================================================================================================

Your tombstone stands among the rest; neglected and alone. The name and date are chiseled out, on polished, marbled stone. It reaches out to all who care, it is too late to mourn. You did not know that I exist, you died and I was born. Yet each of us are cells of you, in flesh, in blood, in bone. Our blood contracts and beats a pulse, entirely not our own. Dear Ancestor, the place you filled, one hundred years ago Spreads out among the ones you left, who would have loved you so. I wonder if you lived and loved, I wonder if you knew That someday I would find this spot, and come to visit you.
