Pehr Pehrsson, her paternal grandfather, was born in 1730. He married Anna Pehrsdotter who was born in 1730. Both of them were presumably born and lived in Sweden. Pehr and Anna had at least one son, Anders Pehrsson (1760). I do not know when they died or where they are buried.
Anders Pehrsson was born on July 20, 1760. He married Britta Engelbritsdotter who was born January 20, 1759 in Vanga, Sweden to Engelbrecht Svensson and Carin Hansdotter. Anders and Britta had at least one son, Sven Andersson (1797). I do not know when they died or where they are buried.
Sven Andersson Farm, who was Johanna's father, was born on May 3, 1797 in Gronstugan, Murum, Sweden. I don't know why "Farm" was added after Andersson. In Swedish, "farm" means the same thing as "farm" in English. So it may be simply that he was a farmer (though "farmer" would be "Farmare" in Swedish). Sven married Maja Nilsdotter. Maja had been born on April 5, 1799 in Mone, Alvsborg, Sweden to Nils Andersson (who was born on January 6, 1763) and Cathrinna Nilsdotter (who was born on December 16, 1774). Sven (Anderson) Farm and Maja Nilsdotter married and had Johanna Svensdotter. Her father Sven died on November 7, 1875 in Mone, Sweden; her mother Maja died on October 21, 1846 in Tralunda, Alvsborg, Sweden.
Johanna Svensdotter was born on July 17, 1823 in Mone, Alvsborg, Sweden.
