Johan Persson born 9 Aug 1858. Their parents Petter Jansson and Sara Danielsdotter got married 25 June 1858 and had six
children (Johan is the oldest) of which 2 died very young. In April 1878
the father dies and in April the year after Johan emigrates to North
America (together with 220 others from the same parish - Grangärde). His
mother Sara also emigrates 9 years later in 1888 together with her youngest daughter Sofia Wilhelmina, born 3 October 1873.

Made a quick check, but didn't find anything about him and his family, just found some data on his ancestors - but I don't know what you have.

In the 1850's he lives with his family at Dahlkarlsberget, as does Sara's father Daniel Ersson, born 11 Oct 1805 in Botåker. Daniel's Wife was Stina Jansdotter, born 1815, died 11 May 1849.

Petter Jansson's parents, Jan Ersson b1800 in Grangärde, Anna Stina Ersdotter b 1804 in Grangärde.

I don't know about the accuracy of the data, but there's info a couple of centuries more of ancestors. But nothing I just can give you a link to.

I could of course email the person who entered that data and ask if he wants contact with you. I believe he's a descendant to Sara Danieldotter's brother, Daniel Danielsson.

That would be great if you would put me in contact with them
