Hi Olle,
Thank you so much for the prompt response. That is interesting & helpful to my research. Family lore is often hard to prove or disprove and that is what I am dealing with here. The family has always said the Lindgrens came from Gränna and worked for the king at his summer place. I have found that John Magnus Lindgren wasn't from Gränna as the family thought. His wife, whom he married in the US, was from Gränna, as you found. If there was no place in Gränna where any of the family may have worked for the king, I have to assume it was John Magnus Lindgren who worked for him - probably in Stockholm. Possibly Inga Stina Andersdotter also worked for the King and that is where she met Lindgren.
