Johan Peter BERNTSSON

I'm researching the Swedish side of my family .
I know that my 2 great grandfather was called johan
peter  berntsson.

I believe that he may well have been a sailor ?

I think that he married a Kristina maria olsdotter in 1879/80?
other than that i know very little about him
any information would be appreciated .
thanks in advance

Hi
I take it that one of his children or grandchildren ended up in England?
If so do you have a name?

hi
yes three of his children came over to England .
my great grandmother Alma Charlotta , my great aunts Matilda Josefina
and Gerda Eugenia .
I think that there may well have been a son who also moved over here .

I think he married around 1879/1880 to a Kristina olsdotter .

My mum was given aunt Gerda name as her middle name .
Other than that i know very little about him

thank you for replying

Hi Ian
Thank you so very much for this information.

Do you know when they were married?
And when they died . ?

I know that Alma Charlotta was married in 1900, Matilda in 1905 and Gerda in 1921.
I now know a bit more about their father Johan thanks to you .
Where was Johan born ? Is there any information about his parents?
Thank you again
