Biography

August was the fourth of the surviving sons of Petter Andreasson in Bondegården and his wife Stina Eriksdotter. He was born in March 1861.[1] Like his elder brother Johannes he adopted the name Ekeblad when he left home for a career as school teacher. He went to the small town of Kungsbacka in 1885.[2][3][4]

August married miss Olga Vesterdahl 28 December 1895.[5] They lived first in the Schoolhouse[6] but soon bought their own house.[7] August and Olga had no children.

August Ekeblad was very active in municipal politics. Eventually he got a position as chief accountant in the town of Falkenberg, where they moved in 1914.[8] He died in Falkenberg in 1923.[9]
