Could someone please help me read the last name of the widow Ingier Gunnarsdotter? Germondsdotter?, the second to the last person listed on this household exam? I see that her daughter Kirstin died, and Ingier moved to Agunnaryd parish (hope I got that right).
Thank you all for the help.

Germundsdotter.

Thank you!

I think I have found this Ingier Germundsdotter's death on 10 April 1751 in Stenbrohult. I wonder if someone could please help translate this for me? I can understand that she was married for 19 years in Dihult, had 9 children (I have been able to find 7 born at Dihult), and died at Tångarna at 93 years of age of ålderdom. I can't understand the rest of it. I found her at Tångarna in the Stenbrohult AI:3 household exam. There it said she was born in 1668; if true, she would have been 83, not 93, at her death. Still, a long life!
Thank you for any help you can provide!

The rest say that it is remarkable that Ingier and the woman above, Elin Arfvidsdotter, both were baptised on the same day, both got 9 children, died the same week and thus should have been buried in the same grave (they were buried the same day). Thus you should find out if that was actually correct, and if they were both 93 or 83 years old!

Thank you so much for the translation! I found Elin in the Stenbrohult AI:3/123 household exam. There it said she was born in 1657. If correct, she would indeed have been 93. Maybe Ingier's birth is incorrect in the household exam? There are no birth records back then, at least not in Stenbrohult, so I can't check. Still, a remarkable coincidence!
Thank you again.
