Thanks, Yvonne!
I knew that Erik Persson's daughter, Elin, married Jonas Arvidsson. I also knew that his daughter Elin's first 2 children were named Arvid and Karin - this made it seem likely that Karin Månsdotter might be the wife of Erik Persson.
I also know that Erik Persson died in 1778 at age 80, which indicates he, like Erik Törnqvist, was also was born in 1698.
What I didn't know was that he had a son named Måns born in 1769!! I also did not know that Jonas Arvidsson was a parish tailor!! I have a copy of their marriage record - did I miss it on there? It is at https://app.arkivdigital.se/volume/v30538?image=72 Can you tell me where you found this information?
I think it is reasonable to believe that Erik Persson and Erik Törnqvist are one and the same person, but I probably will never have absolute proof (as I cannot read through the many pages of old legal documents.) :) I will make this notation in my records.
Thanks again for your ongoing help! It is very much appreciated!
