Dear Anti Poika,
It's a wonder anyone can understand the wrods coming out of my moth considering that my ancestors came from Württemberg, Björkenäs, and Skellefteå.
Thank you for your explanation about the numbers. I guess this means that when I see "No. 40 Björkenäs" in two different household examination records, I should not assume that it is the same physical house?
For "No. 3 Binga" in Edestad, what does "Binga" mean? Is it a place like Björkenäs?
I suppose Sweden was like Württemberg and people needed to be ~25-years-old to get married or have adult status.
I think my grandfather's uncle Sven Jonasson was born on 25 Feb 1828 but I am having trouble finding his birth record. Can you determine which one it is on this page:
I see the names of his supposed parents Jonas Svensson and Elna Pehrsdotter on several records but I cannot find the name Sven or his supposed birthdate and baptism date.
I hope I'm not imposing on the kindness of this group by asking so many questions. You guys have really opened up a Pandora's box for me and I am very grateful.
