Surnames: NORD NORLING SJOLIN PRINTZ ANDERSDOTTER JONSSON
Looking for the chilren of Pehr Jonsson NORD (Peter NORD) and his wife, Brita (Betsy) ANDERSDOTTER. They included the following:

Brita Pehrsdoter NORD, b. 1851
Jonas Persson NORD, b. 1854
Christine NORD, b. 1857
Per Persson NORD, b. 1859
Anders Persson NORD, b. 1862
Margta NORD, b. 1866

The first 5 children were born in Alfta parish, Helsingland (Gavleborg), Sweden, and I think the last one was born in Bollnas, Sweden. The family emigrated in 1868. The parents, at least, lived in Sherman Township, Clay County, Kansas.

I believe Christine married Frederick NORLING. They had at least four children, three of whom were born in Kansas and one of whom was born in Colorado.

I have extensive genealogy on this family going back many generations in Sweden. Peter NORD was a brother of my great-grandfather, Johan Jonsson SJOLIN. Another brother who came to Kansas was Anders Jonsson PRINTZ (Andrew PRINTZ).

I would really love to find out what happened to each of the children.
