Titel: Using grandfather's name as patrynym?
Skrivet av: Diane Blomgren skrivet 2015-05-13, 07:05
Hello, all,
I'm researching Arvid Samuel Arvidsson of Döderhult AI:11 (1852-1860) Image 375 / page 366 where it says he was born in Malmö 20 August 1816. I looked in the birth records for Malmö Sankt Petri, the largest parish, and didn't find him. Then I looked in Malmö Caroli CI:9 (1814-1826) Image 42 / page 75 where I found an Arfvid Samuel born on that date to Bengt Arfvidsson. But that boy's name should have been Arvid Samuel Bengtsson, eller hur? Is it possible he took his grandfather's name as his patronym?
