General info:
Johan Aron Abrahamsson [aka Ernest Stoneberg] was the first Abrahamsson/Stoneberg sibling to come to the US, arriving in 1872. He staked a land claim in North Dakota for his family. We are not aware of a wife or any children for Ernest. Ernest had one brother, Solomon, and four sisters, one of whom came to America at different times. Ernest's sister Anna Britta Abrahamsdotter Stoneberg came to the US in 1904 and settled with her brother and son in North Dakota. The other three sisters apparently stayed in Sweden.
