Titel: Need confirmation of notes on 1750 tax record in Slättevrå
Skrivet av: Victoria Cihla skrivet 2021-02-23, 22:20

Attached is a copy of a1750 tax record in Slättevrå.  Can anyone confirm/correct my translation of the notes on the right side for Per Swensson (with daughter Kristin and son Lars, age 15)?  I'm sorry for the poor quality copy.

I think the notes say:

Over age
Wife is ? and sickly
Sexton (or bell ringer) 

Thanks for your help,

Vicki

It's only the last three lines that's about Per's family.

The first line "skonas i åhr" (spared this year) is about the boy in the family above.

You are right about the rest. Your question-mark is "gam." = gammal = old.

Thank you so much!   I'll make the correction about first line.  That is very helpful!
