Hi Rick, I found one reference in the History of Wright County p. 444-445 under the name:Peter S. Svenson, better known as Peter Errickson. "He was married Nov. 13, 1870 to Mary Utterberg and they have had eleven children: Anna was born April 28, 1871; Charlotte was born Feb. 13, 1873; E. Albert was born Aug. 18, 1874; and died April 4, 1895; Ida E. was born Nov. 1, 1875 and died Aug. 23, 1876; Caroline was born Dec. 15, 1876; Albertina was born Nov. 3, 1878; and died Mar 21, 1887; Axel was born Mar 22, 1880; Gottfried was born Oct. 6, 1881; Beda was born May 11, 1883; and Tillie and Elden (twins) were born May 30, 1885. Mary Utterberg was the daughter of Johan and Mary Peterson, Utterberg being the name officially conferred upon Johan when he joined the Swedish army. In 1867 they came to America, bringing their seven children: Kajsa, Ole, Mary, Carrie, John, Nels and Charles. They first located on fifteen acres in Rockford township, this county. They built a log!
house that is still standing, erected other buildings, and in time added 160 acres. Johan was the sexton of the Lutheran church for a number of years. He died in 1900 at the age of eighty. His wife died in June at the age of seventy-eight."
Hope this helps you.
