Nordlander is a Swedish family originating from the village of Norrland, Bjärtrå in Ångermanland, Sweden. Daniel Persson (1683–1763) relocated to the Norrland estate from his former residence at the crown land (Swedish: Kungsgård) of Bjärtrå, a power house in Ångermanland until the establishment of Härnösand in 1585.[1] Subsequently, his sons Erik Nordlander (1723–1782) and Nils Nordlander (1726–1775) assumed the family name in accordance with that of the estate and its village.[2][3][4]

The residence of the Vogt, the regional Bailiff of Ångermanland, is believed to have been located on the same estate as the present building.
