Titel: Anders Jansson Parents
Skrivet av: Greg Rosenvall skrivet 2022-12-28, 04:07
The household record below shows Anders (birthdate 1826-04-25) as the son of Jan Andersson and Anna Persdotter.  I am trying to find the birth records of the parents Jan Andersson and Anna Persdotter.  I believe I have found the birth record of Anna below.  Any confirmation would be reassuring and I cannot find a birth record for Jan.  Any help would be most appreciated.

Thank you,
Greg Rosenvall

You've got the right parents for Anna - her mother is listed as "svärmor", mother-in-law, below and said to be the widow after Per Andersson. Her birthyear also matches the age given in the birth notice.

Jan is said to be born in Djörkshyttan -- and he can be tracked back to his parents, and paternal grandparents, in AI:12b, p 101 (mp)[1]. The place-name is spelled "Görkshyttan", but pronounced the same -- "Jœrkshyttan" (in my home-made phonetic script ...)

Tracking people in those records is made easy by the fact that they apparently married young, and stayed in place -- and they were marked in the books with their relationships: "måg" (son-in-law), "svåger"/"svägerska" (brother/sister-in-law), etc.
