I am looking for suggestions on the logical way to proceed so I can learn how to best work my way back or forward. This may be too much to expect others to follow
I know Maja Lena Carlblom Jonsson had 8 children. She was b:1830 married:1855 The obvious gap is between Karl Levin B: 26 May 1858 in Hångsdala (confirmed in birth records) and Amanda Agusta B:31 July 1866 in Mossagarden,Slöta
I see the family in 1861-1870 Slota AI:9 page 163. Four children are at home. The oldest Maria Charlotta b:6 July 1856 is gone.
what is the logical course to see a family record of the family before the period of the Slöta AI:9 page 163 record? I checked under Mossagarden in the prior Slöta record. I checked in two family record volumes for Hångsdala 1849-1860 and 1861-1868. In Hångsdala I checked Skattegården, Skäddaregården, and Skatte).
I don't expect others to do the search but if you can follow the clues I have, and what I want to find (evidence of other children at home), where would an experienced person begin the search. I am prepared to look at every page in the two parish Household record books if needed but not if there is a smarter way.
So far I have printed and saved images of every record and they are rather organized in a 3 ring binder.
One last question, After Klas, Selma, Hilda it looks like ibm. Does that mean like a ditto mark meaning a repeat of the parish listed above? (https://forum.rotter.se/discus/messages/241/357553.jpg)
As always, Thanks for the help, and I fully understand if you get to the point that you can't invest any more time with my endless questions. Barry
