Could someone please read the location where Marta Andersdotter was born? Hers is the second birth listed on the left-hand page (4 September 1789) to Anders Bryngelsson and Catharin. Olofsdotter. I can see that Anders was a Torpare, but I don't understand the line below that.
Thank you.

Hello Douglas
It looked in the record as it was in Swedish under socken= under the parish I think that they didn´t have a place to live. In the housholdsexaminatons rolls those people was listed in the book on a few other papers, bot in your case the housholdsexaminations roll started in 1810 so no luck there
All the best Ulla

Thank you very much for that explanation!

The record says "Torpare under intakan". "Torpare" is "crofter", that's no problem, but the place name is a bit odd. It's not written with a capital I, and there is no record of such a place in Naglum. Intakan is a rather common name in this part of Sweden, it means land that has been taken into use. They surely lived on a croft somewhere, we just can't say exactly where.

In 1810 har parents are here in a croft called Hästhagen under the farm Skogsäter.

Thank you very much for your help! There is a location labelled "Intagan" about 5 km southwest of central Trollhättan along the Göta Canal (on a map on the Lantmäteriet website). Their first child was born at Smedstakan, about 5 km northwest of Intagan. Their third and fourth children were born at the farm Mr. Nordius located in the household exam (Skogsäter), a few km north of Intagan. Perhaps Marta (the second child) was born in the area near the canal. There are no tax records for the years surrounding Marta's birth, so I cannot see there where they lived. They seem to have moved several times.

Yes, I also noted Intagan, but the thing is, it's not in Naglum, it's in another parish, Hjärtum.

Okay, thanks for that correction. I guess this will remain a mystery -- it's not critical that I know where she was born!
Thank you again
