Thank you so much for your quick response. I am sorry that I made it hard for you by forgetting to tell you where they lived. Very silly of me. But,oh my goodness,Lasse, your information is so interesting. Lena was my great-grandmother and there has never been any other information about her parents other than that her mother's name was Eva. She stayed on at Torp Hallen Buskahult Tykegård (Urshult, Kronoberg)until at least 1895 and all the girls were with her until one by one they left to go to Denmark,America or in Lena's case to Almundsryd. Could I ask what the notation on that same HH page next to Eva's name means and does it say what Mattis did for a living? Is it unusual that the pastor would not have noted anything about the illegitimate girls?
I will be in Vaxjo this summer so I am hoping to be able to see where they lived and locate the farm if I am lucky.
