Can someone tell me if I'm on the right track with this 1776 Estate Inventory?  I also have a couple associated general questions.

On the first page of the inventory (top of page 13), I understand that

On February 28 an estate inventory was taken after the death of Elin Eriksdotter.  Why was an inventory taken after her death?  Usually it is taken after the husband dies (or it seems that way).  Her husband, Jonas Arvidsson, was still living. Why wouldn't he be listed as the surviving spouse?  Did I miss it?

Does she have 3 children or 3 sons?  It looks like she has 2 daughters, aged 10 and 8.  I am not sure who the child is who is 3 years old.  It also looks like there is mention of mother's brother(s)?, the children's uncles? I think they may have assisted with the inventory - Joran Ericsson and Anders Ericsson listed on the last page could be her brothers.

The handwriting is again quite difficult to read so any help would be greatly appreciated! 

Thanks a lot,
