Erika Jonn
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Erika Jonn was born on 9 August 1865 in Stora Råby, near Lund, in Scania to Hanna (née Pålsdotter) and Jöns Johnsson who were tenant farmers.[2] She was one of seven siblings in a close knit family, included sisters Lina Jonn and Maria Jonn, who both became photographers of some distinction.[1][2][3]
In 1875 her father left farming and took on running a grist mill in Lund, but died suddenly in July and the family moved into Lund town. The young sisters were then placed in the guardianship of their older brother Jonas.[2]
