Hi Eliza
 
I'm just going over this information you gave me on Friday:
---------------------------------
Parents to Maja-Stina Wisp  
Olof Gustaf Wisp, born 1824  
Brita Cajsa Larsdotter, born 1828  
 
Maja Stina had at least 1 brother:  
Olof Gustaf *1852 (his last name was Olsson (Olofsson) after his fathers first name Olof  
-------------------------------
 
So, on my chart, do I record his name as:
Olof Gustaf Olsson Wisp?
Olof Gustaf Olofsson Wisp?  
Olaf Gustaf Wisp Olofsson?  or...
Olaf Gustaf Wisp Olsson ?
 
I've got another person on my chart who confuses me too. Her name was Greta Catarina Larsdotter. A patron on IGI added the name Norstrom after the name Larsdotter.  
 
Why do some of these families seem to have 2 last names? Is it a custom, or a way to differentiate all the many Larsdotter's or Johansson's families?
 
Best wishes,
Caroline
