The Ankarcrona family is a Swedish noble family of German origin, which settled in Sweden in the 17th century.




History


The family originated from Christoffer Jakobsson, a German Protestant convert who immigrated from Bohemia to Sweden in the 17th century, and resided in Ronneby in Sweden. Two of his grandsons were ennobled, but these branches ceased to exist in 1719 and 1750.
The now living branch stems from his third grandson, the assessor Jakob Christoffer in Karlskrona. He was ennobled in 1751.
