Hej,
 
Richard D. said - It's nice to have something to do when you suffer from insomnia like I do. Keep on coming with your questions.
 
I'll keep going then...
 
Looking for more information on 'Elizabeth Anderson' from Misterhult, b - Feb 24, 1855. Specifically looking for information on her father 'Anders Peter Pehrsson' (that's all we have). Would like to have more information on his siblings and his parents.
 
Thanks so much everyone for your help!
 
Regards
Ken

Hi again Ken!
 
Even though it's only 7 pm. here at the moment I think I can help you out.
 
Elisabet was born as you said on Feb 24 1855. Baptised March 2 1855.
 
Father: Anders P Persson       b. Dec 14 1816 in Misterhult parish.
Mother: Maria Aronsdotter      b. Feb 9 1821 in Misterhult parish.
 
Siblings around the time of Elisabet's birth, Son = S, Daughter = D:
 
D: Christina Mathilda          b. Mar 13 1847
D: Maria Charlotta             b. Jan 27 1849
S: Carl Fredric                b. Dec 23 1850 d. Apr 14 1856
S: Nils Johan                  b. Jun 26 1853
S: Carl Fredric                b. May 4 1857
D: Lovisa Augusta              b. Jul 2 1859
 
Checking up on Anders Peter Persson.
Trying to follow him in the household examination roll to make sure he is the correct one. Because ther are two Anders Peter born in Dec 1816 in Misterhult. One on the 14:th and the second one the day after.

Hi again!
 
Here are what I have found out so far.  
Having trouble to pin down the exact birthday of Anders Peters father.  
It seems that the priests couldn't agree when he was born.
 
There is a Peter born Apr 6 1788, baptised Apr 13 1788, that might be the correct one. His father is called Nils Olofsson. So that fits at least.
 
But, here are the information I have found out so far. This is the family of Anders Peter:
 
Father:     Peter Nilsson               b. ?      in Misterhult parish
Mother:     Anna Lena Andersdotter    b. Jun 26 1794   in Vena parish
 
Son:     Nils Johan               b. Mar 23 1821   in Döderhult parish
Daughter: Christina               b. Oct 8  1825   in Döderhult parish
 
Peter Nilsson and Anna Lena Andersdotter got married Jul(?) 24 1815.
 
The parents of Anna Lena Andersdotter are Anders Jundahl and Anna Gudmundsdotter.
 
I loose track of his family in the household examination roll 1841-1850.

Thanks again!
 
I'll try to find a little harder one next time! :-)
 
You folks are good at what you do! Everything I've given you, you find like it's nothing... It would take me weeks to find what you find in a few hours.
 
Regards
Ken

Thank you Ken!
 
I still find it hard to know where to look.  
I have only been in to genealogy since last december and are still a novis. But I find it calming and interesting.
