The Engwall family (Swedish pronunciation: [ɛːŋːvˈǎll] is a prominent Swedish family, noted as merchants, industrialists, scholars, bankers, politicians, activists, bureaucrats, military officials, philanthropists, economists and diplomats.

The earliest known patrilineal member of the Engwall family is Anders Jönsson, a peasant farmer who, subsequent to his enrollment in the Jämtlandsdragon regiment in 1746, during the Age of Liberty was granted knighthood . Due to constant famine during the 18th century the family relocated to Karlberg Palace.

The family relocated to Gävle in the early 19th century after the royal supervisors of the Karlberg Palace Court chased out Jonas ll, Anders Jönsson’s grandchild, due to the fear that he would disrupt the Swedish Royal Courts monopoly on row-traffic between Karlberg and Kungsholmen.

In Gävle the family established themselves as Engwall. Victor Theodor Engwall son of Jonas Engwall opened the trade house Vict. Th. Engwall Co. in 1853. The trade house later established the coffee brand Gevalia, today the largest coffee brand in Sweden (accounting for 40% of the coffee market).

In the early 20th century the family saw exponential growth with the rise of Kreuger & Toll. Paul Toll the 50% shareholder of Kreuger & Toll and owner of Hufvudstaden AB later married Gunhild Engwall the oldest daughter of the Engwall family.

In 1925, prior to the Kreuger crash, the Engwall family had an approximate fortune of SEK 23.7 billion, ($70 billion in 2004) at the time equivalent to 51.12% of the nominal GDP of Sweden. The Engwalls expanded abroad establishing themselves in Russia and in Poland acquiring Bank Amerykański w Polsce (English: The American Bank in Poland), later sold to Ivar Kreuger.

As of 2020 the Engwall sphere encompasses approximately 400 companies and employ around 343 000 people. The market capitalization of the Engwall family's disclosed holdings exceeds $100 billion as of 2022.

In the early 20th century the Engwall family founded the Middle Swedish Chamber of Commerce (Swedish: Mellansvenska Handelskammaren), an investment arm that currently encompasses a $14 billion logistics network.

The Engwall family, through the Engwall Foundations, allocate annually SEK 1 bilion towards poverty alleviation, cancer research, and educational programs. The Jacob Engwall Donation Foundation, managed by the Middle Swedish Chamber of Commerce, has since 1987 committed over SEK 1.8 billion towards various charitable endeavors.

Early History

The earliest known patrilineal member of the Engwall family is Anders Jönsson Hanström (1726-1797), a peasant farmer who, subsequent to his enrollment in the Jämtlandsdragon regiment in 1746, during the Age of Liberty, was granted knighthood . He married baroness Ulrika Lovisa Leijonsköld, who’s father was Mårten Leijonsköld. Anders Jönsson was assigned the newly founded settlement Gastsjö after his military service. In 1778, the eldest son of Anders Jönsson, Olof Andersson Hanström af Gastsjö (b. 1754) married Märta Bymark (b. 1759), daughter of boatswain Olof Bymark af Alanäset (1728-1770) and granddaughter of Per Jönsson Frisk. Upon Anders Jönssons passing, his estate passed down to Olof Hanström. Olof Hanström had five children between 1780 and 1790; Ingegärd Olofsdotter af Revsund o Brunflo (1780-1833), who married into the Jämtlandsdragon regiment knighthood, Ingeborg Olofsdotter (1783-1841), Brita Olofsdotter af Ragunda (b. 1801), Olof Olofsson (1786-1850), Anders Olofsson (1789-1836). In 1794, Jöns Olofsson (1791-1794), the family's third son was declared dead due to malnutrition following the Great Famine of 1770. In an attempt to invoke prosperity and better times the forthcoming child was to be named Engwall, symbolizing "meadow field". In 1794, in the parish of Ragunda in Jämtland, Jonas Olsson Engwall was born, the first Engwall.

"The first Engwall - Jonas Olsson Engwall, my father and the first bearer of the Engwall name, possessed an insatiable desire to explore the world beyond his humble beginnings. Determined to venture forth, he embarked on a journey at a tender age, making his way to Sundsvall where he secured lodgings as a shop boy. After a year, his thirst for knowledge and new experiences led him to Gävle, where he found apprenticeship under the tutelage of an elderly blacksmith named Tullström. Devoting himself to the craft, Jonas spent six years honing his skills under Tullström's guidance, eventually attaining the esteemed title of journeyman. Eager to perfect his trade and ascend to the rank of master, he opted to remain in Tullström's service. However, fate intervened when he crossed paths with his future beloved. Bound by the restrictions imposed by guild regulations, Jonas would have had to wait two more years before he could marry as a "master blacksmith". Driven by love and a burning desire to forge a life together, Jonas made a life-altering decision. He resolved to expedite his independence and establish his own path. With great determination, he set forth to Stockholm, yearning to become a self-reliant man at the earliest opportunity. The obiect of his affection was Catharina Christina Bollner, the daughter of a respected commissioner hailing from Trönö parish in Hälsingland. In pursuit of his aspirations, Engwall enrolled as a student at the prestigious veterinary institute. Diligently applying himself, he mastered the art of farriery, graduating with distinction as a seasoned master farrier. Thus, Jonas Olsson Engwall embarked on a transformative journey that would shape his life, fueled by a hunger for exploration, love, and the pursuit of expertise in his chosen vocation."

— Victor Theodor Engwall, the Engwall chronicle, 1908, p. 2

Länsmuseet presents a slightly divergent narrative of Jonas Engwall's life. Länsmuseet claim that Jonas Engwall initially started his professional career as a farrier, and swiftly progressed to the rank of journeyman before relocating to Gävle. In 1825, upon returning to Gävle from Stockholm Jonas Engwall achieved the coveted status of a master farrier. After settling in Gävle, Jonas Engwall purchased a farm and took the vow of marriage.

Jonas Engwall lost 6 000 Riksdaler, equivalent to SEK 3 000 000 ($300 000) as of 2000, due to failed shipbuilding ventures. In order to recover the financial losses he conducted mechanical experiments. Jonas Engwall was scouted and later employed by P.C. Rettig & Co. At P.C. Rettig & Co, a company specializing in manufacturing tobacco machines, Jonas Engwall built machinery for the factory in Gävle and in Finland. In 1835, Jonas Engwall began experimenting on water-powered "perpetuum mobile".

Jonas Engwall decided to relocate to Stockholm. In Stockholm, an employer had promised him certain freedom to experiment while engineering machinery. The company later failed to fulfil the promise, resulting in Jonas Engwall only producing one machine before resigning. In 1836, he discovered a suitable opportunity in Southern Sweden.

Karlberg Palace

In the 1830s, Jonas Engwall faced setbacks while venturing into new markets. He faced bankruptcy after an unscrupulous supplier failed to deliver cannon bearings to the artillery. In 1837, he secured a position as a blacksmith at Karlberg. Jonas Engwall obtained a patent for his propeller invention. The following year, he successfully constructed a smaller boat with the assistance of a newly formed company. Jonas Engwall then acquired Karlberg Palace Western Wing and obtained affluence. The Royal Court of Sweden that had held a monopoly on rowing traffic between Karlberg and Kungsholmen, orchestrated Engwall's dismissal due to fear of competition. Drawings and patent documents for Jonas Engwall’s propeller innovation are preserved in the Patent and Registration Office

In 1839, the Engwall family fled Stockholm. The family, accompanied by their 12-year-old son, Victor Theodor Engwall, returned to Gävle.

Victor Theodor Engwall

Kongl. sekter Kindblad's private school

Victor Theodor Engwall, was born on July 24, 1827, in Gävle. At the age of seven he gained admission to Stockholm's first standardized school. After his initial admission, he soon got admitted to the prestigious private school "Kongl. sekter Kindblad's privatskola.". Subsequent, the family settled in Karlberg Palace and Victor Theodor Engwall was determined to fulfill his grandmother's wishes for him to study Latin and pursue priesthood. Determined, he walked daily on foot from Karlberg to Stockholm to attend the "Magister Haugwitz privatskola." that taught Latin. Victor's parents later recognized the financial burden imposed by pursuing priesthood and had him drop out.

"Consequently, my father made the necessary arrangements for my enrollment at the New Elementary School in Stockholm. From 1837 until our eventual return to Gävle, I diligently pursued my studies at this institution. In October 1839, upon our homecoming, my father successfully secured my admission to the Gefle Elementary School. I remained there until the summer of 1842 when a new opportunity presented itself--an invitation to embark on a career in commerce.

The decision to bid farewell to my school days was bittersweet, as it meant relinquishing the likelihood of pursuing higher education on the real academic track within the span of two years. Nevertheless, I believed that this turn of events was a manifestation of divine will.

On the occasion of my departure from school, a poignant farewell took place, attended by my cherished mother and esteemed teachers. They offered their warm congratulations, imparting their well wishes for my future endeavors.

— Victor Theodor Engwall, the Engwall chronicle, 1908, p. 4

Jonas Engwall persevered in the blacksmith trade despite facing challenging circumstances, with stints in Gävle, Strömsbro, and Stigslund. In 1844, Victor Theodor Engwall’s mother passed away. Jonas Engwall relocated and remarried, leaving Victor, at fifteen years old, behind. In Sundsvall Jonas later died in 1849, at the age of 55. Victor Theodor Engwall detail in his chronicle published posthumus that he then worked as a "trade clerk" for Otto Dahl at the age of 15.

"In 1843, at the youthful age of 15, l, Victor Theodor Engwall, commenced my professional journey as a "trade clerk" under the employment of the merchant Otto Dahl. This marked the beginning of a new chapter in my life, venturing into the realms of commerce and embracing the challenges and opportunities that lay ahead."

— Victor Theodor Engwall, the Engwall chronicle, 1908, p. 4

In 1845, Victor Theodor Engwall parted ways with Otto Dahl through an "amicable agreement". Victor Engwall received a letter of recommendation from Otto Dahl himself. The recommendation letter has been preserved by the Engwall family.

"In recognition of his faithful and modest conduct, I, Otto Dahl, shall attest to Victor's trustworthy character, thus commendation to anyone who would consider employing him".

— Otto Dahl, letter of recommendation, 1845

Following the recommendation Victor Theodor Engwall joined the esteemed merchant D.J. Poppelman's establishment. The grandfather of D.J. Poppelman was Johan Poppelman, founder of Poppelmans Bryggeri, an establishment vouched by Gustav II Adolf. Due to the connections of D.J. Poppelman, Victor Theodor Engwall was able to establish himself in the socialite realm. On April 2, 1853, Victor Theodor Engwall was able to obtain "status of a trading citizen", allowing him to trade and interfere in all spheres of business.

Consul Wilhelm Eckell

In 1853, Victor Theodor Engwall opened a general store in Consul Wilhelm Eckell's yard. The store was located on the "northern carriageway" close to present day Nygatan, near the intersection of Västra vägen.

Christina Euphrosyne Engwall (1826 - 1905), by von oleschewsky, A.

In 1854, Victor Engwall married Christina Euphrosyne Norberg. Christina was the daughter of Lars Norberg, a coachman, and his wife Beata Margareta Lundmark. Initially, Victor Theodor Engwall's general trading company sold manufactures, fine china, and various miscellaneous goods. Within three years he decided to primarily focus on colonial goods and foodstuffs. The trade house was successful in selling brandy, and in Gävle there is an anecdote ("have you sold too much brandy?") attributed to Christina Engwall once commenting "It never goes well for us, you have sold too much brandy!".

In 1856, Victor Theodor Engwall acted as a commission agent for various companies in Stockholm and Southern Sweden. The Engwalls sold goods to merchants in Falun, Hedemora, Söderhamn, Sveg, and other locations. This commissions based trade later became the primary focus of the company. In 1860, Engwall's general trading company ceased operations. By 1861, Victor Theodor Engwall sourced common goods from Stockholm and Southern Sweden. He also imported colonial goods from Germany and Holland.

Merchants on mandatory alight, Gävle-Dala Railway, 1860

The Engwall's profited from the absence of railway and infrastructure in Norrland during the 1850s. Gävle served as a crucial shipping point for Dalarna, Bergslagen and Hälsingland during this time. In 1856, Vict. Th. Engwall Co financed the Gävle-Dala Railway and after three years, in 1859 the construction was completed. The Gävle-Dala Railway made Gävleborg County during the 1860s a pivotal trade hub with the Engwall's implementing mandatory alight for transports of metals, charcoal and rebar from the mines in Northern Sweden.

In 1863, Victor Theodor Engwall acquired a property located at Vastra Drottninggatan. The property served as the operational base for the business and accommodated residences, offices, stables, storage facilities and warehouses. In the Gävle city fire of 1869 the estate burned down. During the fire Ernst Victor Engwall saved the company's horses.

"Amidst the chaos and devastation, Ernst Victor, with steady hands and unwavering resolve, swiftly freed the noble equines from their fiery confinement. Each tether was severed with precision and care, as he orchestrated their escape from the smoldering stable. But alas! Fortune, in her whimsical nature, turned her back on this valiant young soul. As Ernst Victor led the liberated horses to safety, the burning gate, weakened by the all-consuming flames, crumbled in a tempestuous fury, severing his means of retreat. He was left trapped amidst the raging fire, a solitary figure standing amidst the chaos.

— Victor Theodor Engwall, the Engwall chronicle, 1908, p. 4

After the fire, Victor Theodor Engwall resided at the family's summer residence, Lyckan. In 1870, the family decided to relocate to Stockholm. The family considered transferring the company's operations to the capital and had discussed acquiring the Wallenberg family's house on Kungsgrädgardsgatan.

The Engwall family in 1880

In 1871, the family relocated back to the summer residence, Lyckan. Esther Engwall, who was 4 years old, and Lydia Engwall, who was only 2 years old, opposed moving back to Lyckan due to gummies exclusively being available at Ladugardslandstorget in Stockholm at that time. Thus the family founded a candy company. Once asked "What kind of children are you?" by an wayfarer the children replied with "We are the children of Happiness!", something that has become an anecdote for taking bribes.

Victor Theodor Engwall operated Gävleborg County's last match factory between 1869 to 1878. He had acquired the match factory in 1869 prior to the Gävle city fire for 25,000 Riksdaler.

Victor Theodor Engwall passed away on February 28, 1908, at the age of 80. Published posthumous, the Engwall chronicle details his life. Victor Theodor Engwall, born "the poor son of a blacksmith", at the time of his death owned four match factories, two banks, twenty shipping companies, three sawmills and over 200 properties. He had ten children.

In 1871, he was appointed as Commandent General of Värmlands fältjägarkår (English: The Royal Infantry Regiment of Värmland) [sv].

Värmlands fältjägarkår in the First Schleswig War

Under Fridolf Helin’s leadership the Regiment became increasingly independent, carrying out volunteer campaigns in Europe. In the 1840s and 1850s, members of the Regiment, including Johan Fridolf Helin, volunteered in the First Schleswig War and was victorious. He developed a friendship with Carl Gustaf Löwenhielm, who was the Combatant Commander of the Swedish Armed Forces that participated in the First Schleswig War. In the Second Schleswig War of 1864, Fridolf as the Lieutenant Colonel of the Regiment volunteered for a second time, but was defeated. Fridolf lived in the Officer’s Manor under and after his tenure.

He remained as an Honorary member of the Regiment until his death and attended parades as well as other engagements. He married Maria Lovisa Löwenhielm in 1856. Maria Lovisa came from an influential family and her granduncle once removed was Fredrick I of Sweden.

Johan Gustaf Helin

Johan Gustaf Helin (Helin: Johan | Löwenhielm: Gustaf) was the son of Johan Fridolf Helin and Maria Lovisa Löwenhielm. Johan Gustaf was born out of wedlock and was not able to live with his biological parents. In 1845, Johan Gustaf lived in Stockholm with Christina Augusta Löwenhielm (1754-1846), who was his maternal great-grandaunt and paternal grandaunt. After Augusta Löwenhielm’s death in 1846, he lived with his paternal distant relatives Carl Gustaf Helin and Clara Helin. In 1848, Johan Gustaf Helin lived together with his second god mother Nathalia Alexandra Löwenhielm (born: von Buxhoeveden), who was married to Count Carl Gustaf Löwenhielm, his maternal great-great-granduncle. Carl Gustaf Löwenhielm had led the Swedish-Norwegian troops in Flyn with Johan Fridolf Helin and thus the two had developed a close friendship. During the period between 1848 to 1850 Johan Gustaf was renamed twice, first to Johan Gustaf Helin von Buxhoeveden and later to Johan Gustaf Helin Löwenhielm. Maria Lovisa Löwenhielm lived with her relatives at the Gothenburg estate during Johan Gustaf’s early childhood. Also living at the estate was his aunt Christina Maria Löwenhielm (born: Lagerhjelm), the wife of uncle Crispin Löwenhielm (1777-1827), who had been a close friend of father Johan Fridolf Helin. In 1859, Johan Gustaf Helin attended school in Paris. In Paris, Johan Gustaf lived with his second cousin Marguerite Augusta Marie Löwenhielm, duchesse de Fitz-James. Marguerite Augusta Maria Löwenhielm was an excellent scholar and assisted Johan Gustaf Helin studies which granted him a doctorate in Forestry and Hunting. Upon his return to Sweden, Johan Gustaf Helin inherited the honorific “Bo in Stockholm” from his father, “Johan Fridolf Helin: Bo in Stockholm”. He also inherited the estates of his father in the late 1860s. Johan Gustaf co-owned multiple printed-press media publications together with his Jewish side of his paternal family. His distant relative also named Johan Gustaf Helin (in Luleå) was the founder of the publication “Boden”, later Hallman & Helins boktryckeriaktiebolag. In the realm of media he soon befriended members of the Serrander family. Johan Helin acquired the estate Petersberg in 1872. In the late 1870s, he was an active member of the Varberg–Borås Järnväg (WBJ) committee. He had a significant involvement in the construction of Varberg–Borås Railway (WBJ) due to the first station being located on the Petersberg estate. In 1882, Johan Gustaf Helin founded Johan Helin's Spirit Factory Petterberg PR Borås. The initially delivered spirits to individual households. In 1886, Johan Helin’s factory started to wholesale liquor in Borås, Ulricehamn and Kungsbacka. In 1887, Helin’s factory had 14 licensed retailers and annually sold 900 000 litres of liquor. Johan Gustaf Helin remained sole owner of the factory and expanded into vines and beers in the early 20th century. He befriended Victor Theodor Engwall, who at the time was a commissioned based wholesaler of brandy and liquors. Victor Engwall and Johan Helin initiated a partnership in the 1890s.

Johan Gustaf Helin was married to Maria Augusta Svensson. Her father was industrialist Frans August Svensson, who founded Svensson Tobak. Her grandfather was Johan Fredrik Alcin of the Älvsborg regiment. He volunteered during the Swedish-Norwegian War of 1814 in revenge of his father Anders Mangus Alcin. Her great-grandfather was Anders Magnus Alcin (1767-1808), who after the Battle of Pyhäjoki was taken as prisoner of war. Alcin was originally captured by the Russian army together with the badly wounded Gustaf Löwenhielm. He soon escaped from the Russian imperial confinement and was captured by the Norwegian Army that initially mistook him as an enemy. Alcin found himself combating multiple attackers and killed four Norwegian soldiers during his arrest. In Norway he was incarcerated, tortured and later executed. Svensson was further descendant of Jonea Alcinius (1635-1703), pastor of the Caroleans and temporary mentor of Chancellor Jesper Swedenberg.

Maternally she was the great-granddaughter of Hans Christoffer Uggla (1751-1817). Her grandaunt Christina Maria Uggla (1750-1827) married her own cousin and Johan Gustaf Helin’s great-granduncle Carl Gustaf Löwenhielm (1735-) in 1775. Her other maternal grandaunt Jeanna Fredrika Uggla (1760-) married Gudmund Erik Löwenhielm, granduncle of Johan Gustaf Helin. Her great-great-grandaunt Brigitta Elisabet Uggla (1711-1803) married Gudmund Erik Löwenhielm (1706-1759), great-great-granduncle of Johan Gustaf Helin. Augusta Svensson was further the great-great-great granddaughter of Major General Lennart Uggla (1626-) and Catharina Lillie af Aspenäs (1681-1758).

He was born in “Västra Ryd socken, (Upplands-Bro Kommun) Stockholms län” (English: Västra Ryd Parish (Upplands-Bro municipality), Stockholm county), a region known for grand estates and hosting military regiments. Bo Henrik Gustaf Helin early life was spent at the family’s estate in the parish. He later moved to the family’s estate Kloster Herrgård (English: Monastery Palace). At the estate he found an interest in architecture and made detailed plans on extending the estates stables amongst other improvements. In the early 20th century, the Kloster estate’s principal building, Kloster Herrgård (English: Monastery Palace), was reconstructed as commissioned by Bo Henrik Gustaf Helin. The Kloster estate in the early 20th century encompassed the whole urban area of Kloster, Hedemora municipality. The Helin family owned an estate on Östermalm at present day Villagatan.

The Kidnapping of Ann-Marie Engwall

Staketgatan 15, the Engwall family house

On Wednesday, September 11, 1963, just before eight in the morning, a beige Saab stopped outside the tobacco shop on the corner of Staketgatan-Kaplansgatan. Behind the wheel sat a man in his thirties, and beside him loomed a fair-haired younger woman. Their victim, the seven year old Ann-Marie Engwall, had been carefully selected. Her father Jacob Engewall was fourth generation breast heir of the Engwall family and the richest man in Gävleborg. The Engwall's lived in a large turn-of-the-century estate on Staketgatan 15, and she was on her way to school on Kaplansgatan. The kidnapping would take place only a block from where she lived. She was wearing blue jeans and a red cardigan, a white headband and white sandals. A tartan bag dangled over her shoulder. She quickly turned the corner onto Kaplansgatan.

The younger woman in the car recognized her immediately. Ann-Marie Engwall was a spitting image of her mother, same dark hair, brown eyes and marked eyebrows. Ann-Marie Engwall went to first grade at Nynässkolan, just a few blocks from home. Today was her eleventh day of school. It was warm and pleasant and not a cloud was visible in the sky. The woman managed to catch the girl between Staketgatan and Valbogatan. The man followed slowly with the car. "Hop in," said the woman in a friendly tone. “Your class has gone on a field trip and Miss has asked us to pick you up. We're going to race the bus." Ann-Marie Engwall was confused, but still got into the car and disappeared without a trace.

At half past ten in the morning, the Engwall family's house got a call and the kidnappers announce that they have taken care of the family's daughter and that the ransom for her safely going home being SEK 15 000. When asked if they had done anything to harm her, they answered no, they insisted that they had "not curled a hair on her head". At the time of the phone call, the kidnappers were in Bollnäs. Together with Ann-Marie Engwall, they had guessed car brands and they had joked and sung so much that she had barely looked out of the window. In the phone call, it was announced that the money would be put in the washroom in an envelope, in the men's toilet at Kungsgrillen (restaurant) in Gävle at 3 p.m. Which Jacob Engwall also did after noting down the 150, SEK 100 notes.

The kidnappers stopped in Valbo outside Sparbanken and pretended that the car could not be started. Then they called for a taxi. The man went to Kungsgrillen where it was decided that the money would be left and exchanged the left envelope for one of his own without thinking that this would contain lots of their own fingerprints. When they were about to send the girl home, she began to cry, she absolutely did not want to leave their pleasant company, but instead asked them to come home with her. However, after being bribed with a chocolate bar, she took the taxi home.

When the father returned, a taxi stopped with Ann-Marie Engwall and the girl then jumped out of the car. It was then 3:45 p.m. A quarter of an hour later, the kidnapping was reported. The police set up barricades. At 17:20 on 12 September 1963, the kidnappers entered the police station in Malung and reported themselves. Without having avanged the money on Kungsgrillen. At the time of the inspection at the police station in Malung, the couple had SEK 400 on them.

The kidnappers arriving at court

The kidnappers were the father of three and former social worker in Ovanåker municipality, 28 year old E.B. and A.S. a 21-year-old women. E. B. had been employed at the children's spring board in Ovanåker from August 1962 to September 6, 1963. In this way he had come into contact with A.S. who was from Ovanåker. On September 17, 1963, the couple was arrested before Gävle Town Hall Court. The main hearing began on October 22, 1963. The two detainees had then become engaged in the meantime.

The sentences were announced on Monday October 28. These amounted to four (4) years of penal servitude for E.B. and two (2) years of penal servitude for A.S. The verdicts were appealed from both sides. Svea Court of Appeal took up the case for oral hearing on December 9-10. The verdicts were set on December 17. On Saturday, February 13, 1965, the couple married. A.S. had then been pardoned from the remainder of the sentence and was freed. The groom had a three-day leave from the prison in Härnösand. The wedding took place in Ovanåker's parish home. The marriage officiant, Commissioner Weit Svensson, was also the woman's supervisor. About thirty relatives and friends were present along with a couple of press photographers.
