Per Degerstrom Family Members from Sweden
Per Fredrik Degerstrom was born in Degerfors Parish, Västerbottens Län Sweden in 1844, and married Anna Sofia Bonander, born 1855. They moved to the village of Stuguns, about 50 kilometers east of Östersund in the Jamtland Län area of Sweden, and had 4 boys. The sons emigrated to America in 1892, then Per and his wife Anna, followed in 1894. Most of the Per descendants still live in Minnesota, while a small group moved on to the northwest and settled in Spokane, Washington. Son, Carl, died at age 14, so there is no additional link for him. Here is an overview of the Per family then links to the separate branches:
