Well I think you need to decide what you are after - how much information on the whole family with their siblings you would like to have, or if you were only trying to get as far back in time as possible on you own line only.


To get further back on Kirstin you would really have to be lucky to find a note where she and her siblings are mentioned perhaps in a court book which also mentions how she is related to them (or her husband). You could of course as you say try to find out if you can locate any of her siblings as witnesses at her childrens baptism. I believe the witnesses at this time are only mentioned with their first name in the birth books which also makes this work very hard.


With all the names here being so similar it is too easy to draw conclusions that are not correct. So either you might have to be content with having come this far back with this family, or start reading court books. Tax books are not of much help when searching for women in those days. My 5 cents...
