Polman, Påhlman, von Pohlmann family
By Jake Peterson
ARCADIA: Peterson Family History and the Secrets of a Swedish Nobleman is a compilation of stories, memorabilia and historic family photographs, including never-before-published material. It explores the evolution of this family, chronicling a nobleman in 18th-century Sweden by the name of Påhlman, his son the hat-maker Peter Cederstrøm in 19th-century Norway, and their descendants that would become known as the Petersons across Illinois, Nebraska, and Idaho.
