The Swedish Lindsborg Builders
~ "where the other Swedes lived"
A valuable Lindsborg Smoky Valley Historical Association (SVHA) document of eight pages which had been online for many years was the listing of the names of early Lindsborg residents along with their addresses.  Its last page entitled, Editorial Notes, was worth a read detailing the builders and the houses they built among other interesting facts while apologizing for any inaccuracies. 

Then, during Lydia's and Emil's lives, the principal builders in the early days of Lindsborg were the Palmquist brothers, John and August.  Following them were a number of their apprentice builders and carpenters, some of whom were C. F. Rosine; E. P. Liljestrom; Axel Billing and Carl R. Rooth; those composing the Lindsborg Building Company, i.e. Frank Lindberg, Henry Goodholm, John Josephson, Albin and Henry Goodholm; C.A. Teed; and the Brandt Brothers: Joseph and Ed.*

This labor intensive project titled,
Where Did They Live, Early Residences of Lindsborg, Kansas, I purchase at the Lindsborg Chamber of Commerce when Mrs. Dorene Anderson was the director in 1998.  It was made possible by those most concerned with the preserving of Lindsborg's early history at the time.  These were those members of the SVHA of 1993: Committee Chairman Elston Flohr with Eunice Gunnarson and Kathryn Franz.  Assisting were Hugo Lindahl, Pearlida Peterson, Ingebord Peterson, Mrs. Ted Palmquist, Mildred Johnson, Edwin Rooth, Robert Lundgren, and Estred Barfield.  (It was revised in 1996 and 2005 by other members of the SVHA.)

(This online presentation was made possible through the tireless work of the late SVHA President Chris Abercrombie who for perhaps two decades had been responsible for other online historical presentations on Lindsborg and on Bethany College.  Chris' work and those SVHA members responsible for this "historic" piece of Swedish  American research are now recognized once again by sharing it with the Swedes of Lindsborg and of Bethany College, and with American Swedes and Swedes around the world.)
