About Magdalena Pålsdotter Petersson

Magdalena Palsdotter Mullica Petersson is my Great-Grandmother

Magdalena Pålsdotter became the second wife of Hans Peterson alias Petascus, a Holsteiner, born in 1631, who had arrived on the Delaware as a Dutch soldier. He had previously been married to a daughter of Carl Jönsson, a Finn who came on the Mercurius in 1656. She bore him a son named Carl. Hans Peterson was fined 50 guilders in the Long Finn Rebellion and became active in the Swedish church. At the settlement of Pål Jönsson Mullica's estate, he received one-half of Indian Hook, and later added further holdings, including the first grist mill on Skilpot Creek.
