Yvonne/Kalle,

I've started looking through the earliest birth records for Kånna (1743,4,5) and I noticed a birth record in 1744 - the first birth record on the top of the righthand page - where it looks like the child's mother is Karin Månsdotter who is married to a Jonas or Jons? Jönsson and there is a witness referred to as Erik of Dragaryd Backagård (no patronymic name).

Now I'm really confused - this witness, Erik of Dragaryd Backagård, could it be the soldier Erik (no longer) Törnqvist, and if so, he couldn't be the husband of Karin Månsdotter. 

And this is all IF I'm reading it correctly.

I'd welcome your thoughts on this. 

Thanks very much,

Vicki Cihla
