Titel: Bror Knut Birth Record
Skrivet av: Greg Rosenvall skrivet 2022-09-26, 03:51
I am trying to find the birth record for Bror Knut shown on the household record with link below.  His birthdate is given on multiple records as 1895-08-22 with the birth parish of Gävle.  I have looked for his birth record in the Gävle Heliga Trefaldighet parish (same parish where the birth record of his younger sister Anna Matilda is found) and cannot find.  Any help most appreciated.

Bror Knuts birth notice was entered between the September and October births:

Gävle Heliga Trefaldighet (X) CI:26 (1895-1898) Bild 910 / Sida 84 (AID: v134992.b910.s84 (http://www.arkivdigital.se/aid/show/v134992.b910.s84), NAD: SE/HLA/1010056 (https://sok.riksarkivet.se/?postid=Arkis+{0900fbcc-76fa-493f-8e3b-ef530232763a}&s=Balder)), #665/1895

This book looks very much like it was all written in one sitting -- clean even handwriting, mostly sorted into date order on birth date ...

This usually indicates that the priests had a plan on how to make the books look nice, probably involving a concept book, or a bunch of notes, written at the actual baptisms, and a later transfer of the notes into the "real" book. Given that plans like that almost never works 100 percent, there will be lost notes and notes out of order ... so one has to read forward to reach the place where they entered the lost note,  when it turned up in the wrong place ... ;)
