Hi. I have some speculation to which I would very much appreciate any critique of.
My ancestor is a Camitz who married in Örebro in 1734 to Elisabet Beckman and who died about 1747. During his period of time at Örebro, his name has variably been recorded as:
“Giöran KAMMITS” (when married to Elizabet BECKMAN in 1734) “Giöran CAMITZ” (when son Lars born 1735) “Giöran KAMMITZ” (when daughter Brita born 1737) “Georgien CAMITS” (when son Lars Georgson born 1738) “Georg CAMITZ” (when son Anders born 1740), “Giöran KAMITZ” (when son Giöran born 1740).
Even an examination of the 1740 birth records records for the twins Anders and Giöran born 3 days apart, demonstrate this inconsistency of reporting.
There are however no records for elder Giöran/Georgien/Georg CAMITZ (or variation of this surnames spelling) to be found in Nikolai Örebro prior to his 1734 marriage. I am therefore fairly sure, that he was from another city with his move and marriage to Örebro associated with both his marriage and his occupation as a Bruks Bokhållaren.
