Emil Otto Bergstrom1

M, b. 20 February 1885, d. 12 August 1950
Family Explorer
     Emil Otto Bergstrom was born on 20 February 1885 at Lerdal, Älvsborg, Sverige.1,2

     Emil married Agnes Uppstrom, daughter of Karl Fridolf (Charles) Upstrom and Mary Cajsa Nilsson, on 21 July 1915, at Marquette, Marquette, Michigan.1,3

     Due to a need for men to serve during World War I, the United States instituted a draft. The first registration was for men between the ages of 21 and 31. As a result, this first registration included men born between June 5, 1886 and June 5, 1896. As World War I continued to escalate, the United States instituted a second draft registration. The second registration was for men who had turned 21 since June 5, 1917, so it added men born between June 5, 1896 and June 5, 1897. Two months later, a supplemental registration was held on August 24, 1918 for men who had become 21 years of age since June 5, 1918, adding the names of men who were born between June 5, 1897 and August 24, 1897. With no end in sight for World War I, the United States instituted it's third and final registration. It included all men who were between the ages of 18 and 21, and 31 to 45 years of age. This added younger men than the previous registrations, those who were born between September 12, 1897 and September 12, 1900; and added an older group of men, born between September 12, 1873 and September 12, 1888. Emil filled out a draft card for World War I on 12 September 1918 (at age 33), while living at 526 Oak, Marquette, Marquette, Michigan. He was employed as a carpenter and described as height, medium and medium build with blue eyes and brown hair..4

     The U.S. officially entered World War II on 8 December 1941 following an attack on Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. Just about a year before that, in October 1940, President Roosevelt had signed into law the first peacetime selective service draft in U.S. history, due to rising world conflicts. After the U.S. entered WWII a new selective service act required that all men between ages 18 and 65 register for the draft. Between November 1940 and October 1946, over 10 million American men were registered. The Fourth Registration, often referred to as the "old man's registration", was conducted on 27 April 1942 and registered men who born on or between 28 April 1877 and 16 February 1897 - men who were between 45 and 64 years old - and who were not already in the military. Emil filled out a draft card for World War II on 27 April 1942 (at age 57), while living at 410 West Ohio Street, Marquette, Marquette, Michigan. He was self employed as a carpenter.5

     Emil died on 12 August 1950, at Cook, Illinois, at age 65.6

Census

     Emil and Agnes appeared on the 1920 Federal Census of Marquette, Marquette, Michigan, at 526 Oak Street, enumerated 12 January 1920. Robert was working as a house carpenter, renting at the time. They had a lodger, Andrew Johnson, age 22, living in the household. Their children, Grace Maria and Ralph Emil and mother-in-law, Mary Cajsa Upstrom were listed as living with them.7

     Emil and Agnes appeared on the 1930 Federal Census of Marquette, Marquette, Michigan, enumerated 12 April 1930. Robert was working as a building carpenter. He owned his home valued at $7000.00 Their children, Grace Maria, Ralph Emil, Floyd Arthur, Russell F., James Harold and Donald R. were listed as living with them.8

     Emil and Agnes appeared on the 1940 Federal Census of Marquette, Marquette, Michigan, enumerated 2 April 1940. Robert was working as a building carpenter. Their children, Grace Maria, Ralph Emil, Floyd Arthur, Russell F., James Harold, Donald R., Nancy L., Kathleen A. and Charles were listed as living with them. As an item of interest, a dollar in 1940 would equal $21.35 in the year 2022. A $3.50 gallon of milk in 2022 would have cost $.17 cents in 1940.9
