Hi, sorry for my poor English.

The Bergman family has meant a lot for development of the Kalix socken in many ways, in both positive ways and not so positive ways. There are some people in the region who are interested in the history of sawmills and other industries that the Bergman family built. They are organized in this "Kalixforskarna". There are also a Bergman "family club" based in Stockholm, which I am a member of (my wife is one of many decendents of Johan Bergman Olson).

I have met Sune Bergmans son, and I also know Gunnar Bergmans grand son. I have also been the editor of the new edition of the book "Kalix-Waldemarsudde":

I also work with several other people to develop the web site "Historisk skogsexport från Kalix älvdal", which deals with a lot of things of the Bergman family and the Sawmills of Kalix. There you can find 15 000 pages of digital versions of letters, old documents etc. I also produced some simple exhibitions/video films that you can watch there.

I am sorry to say, but all information is written in Swedish - in the books and on the website. I almost don't know any information at all in English.

But if you send me your email address, I can send you the contact for this grand son I mentioned. I am sure he is good at speaking (and probably writing) English.
