Sundin, Aaron Per. Born in Upland, Sweden in 1865, he immigrated to the U.S. and settled near Dawson (Lac qui Parle County), Minnesota, where he became a prosperous farmer. He married Clara Anderson, born in Upland in 1876. In 1915, Sundin purchased 160 acres of land in the Turner Tract, and moved there with his wife and six of their children. It was in the Sundin home that Stockholm's Lutheran Church was formally organized in 1916. The Sundins had eight children, but only the youngest six ever lived in Texas: Henry (no data located); Elmer (1902-1984); Violet (1903-1986); Wallace (1905-1969); Lloyd (1908-1988); and Donald (1911-1992). Clara Sundin hated living on the Texas frontier, and no doubt contributed to her husband's decision to leave the place. After four years in Texas, the Sundins returned for good to their farm near Dawson, Minnesota. Aaron Sundin died in 1938, and Clara in 1956.
