Doc. 8.] LETTER FROM PETER SCHÖNSTRÖM . 81
son’s name was Jonas Behm ; who was burgomaster in Gefle,
and was married to a Schröder* ; from the same Schröders
descended also Superintendent Schröder, and the wife of Dean
Gädda. This Jonas Behm had twelve sons and a daughter.
From the daughter are the Tehls, and the wives of Palmrot,
Diurberg, and Wallin. One ofthese twelve sons was our maternal
grandfather, and another Daniel Behm, who was Councillor
of Court, and left two sons, Daniel Behm, Lieutenant-colonel
of the Södermanlanders for war, and Axel Behm , Assessor in
the Court of Appeals in Jönköping. One of the descendants
of this Daniel Behm was the wife of Lieutenant-colonel
Falkenhjelm , of the artillery. One of these twelve Behms was
admiral or schoutbyvacht (?) ; another was factor in Söder
hamn, and was father of Fru Brita Behmt (who is married
to the Councillor of Commerce Alderstedt), and grandfather of
Captain Ridderhåf; he was likewise father of a certain Captain
Behm now living. These Behms, who are the posterity of
Factor Behm, are on their mother’s side related to the Countess
Piper. One of the twelve was Lars Behm in Grufriset, about
whom you wrote to me. My paper does not allow me to
write more, neither have I any more to write except that
by acting upon my proposal you may find out much, and
gratify me by so doing.
I remain
your most obedient servant
P. SCHÖNSTRÖM.47

married to a Schröder, but to a Kröger, see Document 9,B.
* This is not the Brita Behm, with whom Swedenborg had several
lawsuits; she was his maternal aunt and the daughter of Assessor Al
brecht Behm ; while the former Brita was the daughter of burgomaster
Hans Behm ; (see Anrep’s Ättartaflor,48 Vol. I, p. 31,Adlerstedt, Table I).
