TIMELINE

In Wisconsin, a town is an unincorporated jurisdiction within a county; Wisconsin towns are similar to civil townships in other states. All areas in the state that have not been incorporated as cities or villages are parts of towns. Towns provide a limited number of services to their residents.


The Norlin family plot is in Section 1, Lot B, Plot 4 of the Sheridan (formerly Sessions Prairie) Cemetery, Town of Farmington, Waupaca Co., WI. Buried there are Anna, August M., Lilly, Louise, Rose and Royal.

   

   

   

Mats August Norlin was born Nordanå, Åmots Bruk, Åmot, Gästrikland, Sweden. Died in Waupaca County, WI. Buried at Sheridan, WI.

After serving in the armed forces, August changed his last name to Norlin (Northland) as permitted by law for men in the armed forces. His last name would have been Matson. The custom in Sweden was to take the first name of the father, (Matias Andrew Anderson) and add son to the end (Mattson, Matson).

He was a gunsmith in Sweden, farmer and blacksmith in U.S.A. His house in Sweden was still standing in 1978.

August was married at Waupaca and is buried at Sheridan, about 6 miles west of Waupaca with Louisa, his wife Anna, and Lilley, Royal and Rose, his infant children.

MRS. JACOB HANSEN

After a short but severe illness, Mrs. Jacob Hansen died at her home on Center Street, in this city, last Sunday morning. Her death came as a shock to the family as well as her friends, as it was thought that she was slowly gaining at the time.
Mrs. Hansen is an old resident of this vicinity, having resided on a farm in Farmington until a few years since when Mr. and Mrs. Hansen moved to their present home on Center Street. She is survived by her husband, three daughters and two sons.
The funeral services were conducted by Rev. Grill at the Holy Ghost church, yesterday and interment was made in Lakeside cemetery. The I. A. S. of the Holy Ghost attended in a body as Mrs. Hansen was one of the oldest members of that organization.
 

From Waupaca website

I believe Mrs. Jacob Hansen is Christina (Peterson) Hanson, who was a sister of my great grandmother (Carrie <Peterson> Anderson). Jacob and Christina had five children: Amelia (Married Lars Larson), Edward, Mattie (or Nora), Emma (Stedman) and Elmer. If anyone knows anything or Christina's ancestry or her descendants, please email me.
Thanks so much!

Hello!

My name is Harry Sundgren, living in the Stockholm area in Sweden. I’m 65+ years old. I started to search for my roots about 3 years ago.

When I was searching for my father’s mother’s mother’s, broder’s and sister’s I found your page about Christina Andersdotter.

I do not know how you are related to Mats August Norlin or if you are interested to know more about his siblings.

My fm m was sister to Anders Mattson Norlin. They were 5 siblings

Greta 1831--1831; Anders 1832--; Anna 1834--; Brita 1837--, and Karin 1843. Karin is my fm m. The siblings had differenr Sir-names like, Matsson, Matsdotter, Matsson Norlin, Matsdotter Molin and Molin.

Anders had 7 children of which 2 died before 6 year of age. Mats August was the eldest, which you know all about. Then came Ann Christina born 1859, she had two children in the US, Frida Elisabeth Wikström married Gurholt and Anna Estella Wikström born 1891 married Nelson. Next is Catharina born 1861 married Modeen in the US. Anders Fredrik was next born 1867 married in the US with Nora Brathovde. The two youngest child died early.

Anna was married in Sweden but two of her children moving to the US, Lars Johan Björk born 1867 and Carl Gustaf Björk born 1871.

For the moment I do not know anything about Brita as she moved from the parish Åmot to the parish Ockelbo. The church in Ockelbo burnt down 1904 and all church books were destroyed.

From another researcher I have found ancestors back to 1642.

 

If you are interested, let me know and I can send you information.

 

Best Regards

Harry
