I am looking at a birth record for Elisabet Nilsdotter 9 Dec 1734, Odensvi C:4 Bild 80/Sida 146. The name I'm concerned with is Cherstin Pårsdotter of Smaltaretorpet. Is she listed as a witness? The father of the child is Nils Persson of Tretorp if I am reading it correctly. I believe Cherstin could be the sister of Nils. Is that a good possibility? If so then I have found her parentage as I do know his. Cherstin/Kerstin is listed as still living in Smaltaretorpet along with spouse Samuel Persson in 1778 both at about age 75. They are the parents of Ingaborg Samuelsdotter I think. Ingaborg and spouse Anders Johansson raised their children there so it makes sense to me that her parents could have lived there in their old age. Does this all sound reasonable? Thank you for help with this.
