Hedell Name[edit]
Petter having changed his surname from Jonsson to Hedell fits with the Swedish naming convention switching from Patronymic names (e.g., Nils Andersson's son Pehr becomes Pehr Nilsson) to family names between 1800 and 1900. Some families apparently "froze" their most recent patronymic name, taking it as a family name; some combined nature and or topographical elements (e.g., linden tree + stream = Lindström); and others took place names, as Petter Jonsso-Hedell did.
