Titel: Help with a tax record in Dals-Ed parish
Skrivet av: Douglas A Nelson skrivet 2021-12-19, 16:36

Could someone please translate the marginal note to the right of Anders Andersson at Bälnäs (in the middle of the left-hand page: Mantalslängder 1642-1820, Mantalslängder 1642-1820Älvsborgs län, SERA5520355203.15114 (1786), bildid A0003466_00315, sida 598)?  It seems to refer to the name of a parish, but I cannot match it to a parish near Dals-Ed.  This is the first year he lived there, so I would like to try to find where he moved from.

Thank you for your help,
Doug Nelson

It looks like it says

"från Eke, Steneby Sochn"
ie from Eke, Steneby parish

Thank you so much for pointing me to the correct parish!  I sure could not make out the "S" at the beginning of Steneby.  I found Anders and his family at the farm Säbyn in Steneby before they moved to Dals-Ed.
