Only one family lives in Johannisdal during this time period. As the father is titled "torpare" this most likely means they are living in a "torp" or we could call it a kind of small farm. I have not found the name Johannisdal in this area on contemporary maps, but it would be possible to find the place by searching older maps.

Torpare is translated crofter, cottager, or peasant. https://forum.rotter.se/index.php?topic=81641.msg1091188#msg1091188
