And this is their parents...
...Sofia and Salomon Lindman. Salomon sr. lost his parents very early and was brought up by an aunt, whose husband owned a grocery store in Jönköping. Salomon took over it and made it very successful. "S. Lindman & Co" at Östra Storgatan 94 was later taken over by his son Salomon jr., and existed as a company at least until the 1960's.
Authoress Elsi Rydsjö, great granddaughter of Salomon sr., has written a novel Kavalkad where she outlines (partly founded on facts) Salomon's life together with his wife Sofia in the middle of the 19th century. When I read it, I did not wish to have been born in those days.
