Titel: Help with comments on tax records from 1756 and 1757 Arvidsgården, Kånna, Kronoberg
Skrivet av: Victoria Cihla skrivet 2020-06-28, 00:05

Attached are copies of 1756 and 1757 tax records.  The entries for Arvidsgården, Kånna are highlighted.  Can anyone tell me what the notes on the right side of the entries say?  I have no idea even what the letters are!

They can be found on the following links:

Thanks so much for any help with this,

Thanks very much!  That makes sense.  What I've learned through these tax records so far:

1752 only Erik is listed, there is a note there also which I'm assuming now relates to his wife's health, but he is not noted as a widower.
1753 there is no tax record available.
1754 & 1755 both Erik and his wife are listed.
1756 & 1757 only Erik is listed, but he is not described as a widower
1758 Erik is noted as a widower from then on.

This information greatly improves my understanding!  I'm going to go back as far as I can to see what else I can find out about this newly discovered person Erik Persson!

I really didn't expect the tax records to provide me with another generation - I was primarily using the tax records to confirm what I knew already!

Thanks again for your help,
