Below we can read about our emigrants and how they experienced both joy and sorrow in their new country America and what they miss from their old native country Sweden.

We can also read about when the authorities were of the opinion that emigration to America took too large proportions in Sweden. For that special reason “The National Society Against Emigration” was founded in 1907. This society worked for that the inhabitants ought to stay in Sweden instead of emigrating.
