Life story

A Croft to Croft Life

Johannes Carlsson was born December 22, 1795, in Näshult Parish, Jönköping County, Sweden, and spent his working life as a crofter, moving with his family among more than a dozen different tenant crofts across the parishes of Lemnhult, Norra Ljunga, and Vallsjö over six decades — a pattern typical of Sweden's landless rural poor, who worked small parcels in exchange for labor or rent rather than owning land outright. In his later years he lived for a time as an inhyses, a lodger housed for free, and then in turn with his son Pehr Johan and his daughter Johanna Sofia. Johannes spent his final year at the Ljunga parish poorhouse, where he died on October 10, 1885.
