He married Brita Bridget Johnson in the year of 1853 in New York and they again sailed across the Atlantic to his wife’s old home town, Gifle, Sweden, which was Mr. Hagglund’s shipping port. Here they lived for fifteen years. Mr. Hagglund roamed the seas all around the world and only got home when his ship made the home port. It took a brave woman to be a sailor’s wife those days, as some times there would be over a year with any news from her sailor husband. During those fifteen years, four children were born to them. The oldest died in infancy. The other three, Mrs. Olaf Issacson of Stanton, Emil of Red Oak, and Lenus of Essex are still living. On August of 1867 Eric Hagglund and his family decided to come to America to stay. So after a long ocean voyage and a tedious train rain from new York, they arrived at Andover, Illinois, where the parents were living and also the two sisters who had married and were now, Mrs. John Quist and Mrs. Charles Landen as the older Essex people will remember them at Andover the subject of this sketch lived a little over eight years. Here two children, John and Carrie (Mrs. A. J. Falk) were born. Here they owned a little farm, but Mr. Hagglund having been a seafaring man for twenty six years hated to give up his old work, so during the first three years he rented a farm and sailed on the Great Lakes between Buffalo and Chicago during the summer. After farming for five years, they sold out and moved to Essex, Iowa, on the farm now A. J. Falk, in the year of 1876.
