Axel Pehrsson-Bramstorp - Early Life

Early Life

Axel Pehrsson was a member of a farming family in Öja (now in Ystad Municipality) in Skåne, and though his father's death made it impossible for him to continue his schooling after the age of 14, he later completed some adult education courses in a folkhögskola (English: "folk high school"). His parents' farm was of considerable size. At the time of his marriage he bought Bramstorp farm in the same parish, and later took over the parental farm and bought several others as well.
