The reason I asked about when and where you first came in contact with him was that I found several Carl Larsson born around the same time and because priests or clerks made mistakes now and then, I was not sure the one I found in Lyrestad was the right one and I could have looked at some of the others too. If you can trace your Carl Larsson from when he moves from his parents via Lyrestad back to Hova 1890 and the census, it is good.
