General questions / Help with translation of marriage record
« skrivet: 2024-01-24, 15:34 »
Attached is an image of the marriage record of Kirstin Oijersdotter in Rödbo 1817.  Can anyone help with the translation of  this marriage record?

It looks like the following in Swedish
"Sold.(Soldat) Olof Ört och hemmadottren Kerstin Öijersdotter i Östergård".

Which translates to English as the following
"Soldier Olof Ört and the house daughter Kerstin Oijersdotter from Östergård".   

Am I correct?   Is his last name Ort?  I have not seen that name before.

My third great grandfather was born illegitimate in 1797 in Skåne.  In 1799 his mother was brought to court and she stated that she had sex with an unknown man which led to the birth of her son.  Would that imply that it was consensual sex or would she have been forced to appear in court even if she was raped?   I don't not know if the man was truly unknown to her or if she was covering up for him or under duress.  My third great grandfather was named Pehr Rasmusson.  His mother's last name was Torkelsdotter.  Since he did not take his mother's name it would imply that his father was a man named Rasmus.  Is that necessarily true?   Would he have chosen his last name or would it have been given to him by his mother?  Was this her way of letting the people now who the father was?

Attached is an image taken from the Valla Household Examination Records 1872-1881.  Line number 14 is Carl Andreasson.  There is a note before his name that I cannot make out.  I believe the last word before his name is sailor.  Unfortunately this line is crossed out which makes it harder to read.
Can any one figure out what this note says?

General questions / Help with translation of court record
« skrivet: 2023-08-17, 13:32 »
Attached is an image from a 1720 court record involving my 6th great grandfather Oluf Jeppsson from Fränninge parish in Färs Harad. It starts out with "Oluf Jeppsson from Starrarp".  The other name looks like Elias Sapk from Vallarum.  I have never seen the name Sapk before.  Is this an unusual name?
I have attached another image from the 1723 mantals for Fränninge.   This must be the same man in Vallarum.  The spelling is Zaph in this entry.  I looks like the first name is Esias.

Can anyone translate this first part of the court record into Swedish and English?

General questions / More help with translation from laga skifte
« skrivet: 2023-07-23, 23:34 »
Attached is an image taken from the laga skifte of Myggenäs in Tjörn in 1848.  The land has been equally divided between Andreas Andersson and Olof Heljisson.  This section is listing Andreas property.

Here is my attempt at the Swedish. 

"Mannhuset 22 alnar långt 9 alnar bredt och 3 dito högt innehåller Ryggåsstuga och kök samt en kammare 8 1/4 alnar läng 9 bred och 5 alnar hög, innehåller 2nd ram ladugården 27 alnar lång 11 alnar bred och 54 alnar hög, innehåller 1 lage lad och fähus täckt med tegel på lägten. - Stall och vidbad 6 1/4 alnar läng 4 alnar hög, täckt nu tegel på lägte.
Jordkällare 5 alnar låg 5 dito bred och 3 dito hög"

Running this through Google Translate produces the following which is not the greatest.

"The man's house 22 cubits long 9 cubits wide and 3 ditto high contains Ryggåsstuga and kitchen as well as a chamber 8 1/4 cubits long 9 wide and 5 cubits high, contains 2nd frame barn 27 cubits long 11 cubits wide and 54 cubits high, contains 1 layer barn and stable covered with brick on the lath. - Stable and wide bath 6 1/4 cubits long 4 cubits high, now covered with brick on the ground.
Earth cellar 5 cubits low, 5 ditto wide and 3 ditto high"

I am not sure how many buildings this is referring to.  It seems like either 2 or 3.

Can anyone fix my Swedish and translation to English?

Thanks,

Attached is an image take from the laga skifte of Myggenäs in Tjörn in 1848.  The land has been equally divided between Andreas Andersson and Olof Heljisson.  Andreas Andersson is my third great grandfather.

Here is my attempt at the Swedish. It is hard to read so my interpretation is probably not very good.

"Sedan va alla frågor der uti delogärne ägor bestetande rätt äro uton trutar belaggda förogs skiftyläggningen då efter äfveläggning bestutadas att Andreas Anderson som äger fömre has är Olof Heljisson den förtnämnda afflyttar gamla tomtes öster uti."

I believe it has to do with one person relocating after the agreement has be finalized.  I am not which one is moving.

General questions / Help understaning about work certificates
« skrivet: 2023-07-09, 13:42 »
Attached is an image taken from the household examination records of the parish of Valla on the island of Tjörn 1862-1872.
The phrase is "Bevis för utrikes sjöfart  25 Jun 1867" which I believe translates to "certificate for foreign shipping" along with the date issued.   This phrase is found next to the names of a lot of men in the parish books including some of my relatives. I believe that you would need this to get a job as a sailor on a foreign ship.  Why would someone need a certificate for this purpose?  In order to get one did you need to have certain skills or pass a test?  Who would have issued this certificate?  Is there a record of these certificates still around today?  I have been unable to find any mention of these certificates anywhere.  Were they only around for a short time?

General questions / Help interpreting mantal
« skrivet: 2022-01-17, 02:19 »
Attached is an image from the 1798 Brandstad mantal in Southern Sweden.  I have attached two images, the left and right sides of the page for Rasmus Bonesson.  He is the fourth name at farm number 3.
At the left its has "Ihs" which I believe is an abbreviation for inhyses.  Then it says Rasmus Bonesson, wife, 2 children Ihs(inhyses) Gjiertru.
The right side of the page has a 1 in the wife column, a 1 in the torpare man column, a 1 in the over 63 column and a 2 in the under 15 column for a total of 5.  Then there is a note about Gjiertru being poor.

Am I correct about the "Ihs" abbreviation.  He does not have a mantal fraction before his name so he is not paying a tax.  Why would he be listed as inhyses if he lived in a torp.  Doesn't inhyses mean he is living off someone's support and a torp would mean he was renting a small farm and supporting himself.  Why wouldn't Rasmus, his wife and Gjiertru be listed in the inhyses column? 
Who would he be renting the farm from.  Can we tell from the document?  The person above him is from farm number 22.  Would it be the person above that (Anders Olsson)?

Am I interpreting this correctly?

I having been trying to find out what Uppåkra is like.  It is located 6 kilometers from Lund in Southern Sweden.  The only information I have found is regarding bronze age settlements in that area.  I am interested in Uppåkra because my grandfather lived there for 15 years when he was a boy. My great grandfather was a tailor who left Hammarlunda for Copenhagen.  He married a Swedish woman had two kids and moved to Uppåkra in 1891.  Is Uppåkra a farming village or is it more urban since it is near Lund?  It seems like a tailor would need to live in an urban area to make a living and support his family.  They did eventually move to Lund in 1906.  My great grandfather abandoned the family in 1907 and took off for Southern California.   Just wondering if these locations and occupation factored into his decisions to move around.

Attached are three images taken from the court case involving my fourth great grandmother Gertrud Torkelsdotter in Brandstad 1799.
She had an illegitimate child born in December of 1797 which was my third great grandfather Pehr Rasmusson.  I have been trying to track down who the father was for a number of years.  I know from the Brandstad church books that she was fined in 1799 for having unmarried intercourse.  I have finally tracked down the case in the court records.  I have scanned through the document but do not see any man's name mentioned.

Here is the document information from ArchiveDigital

I have attached 4 images of births and deaths from Skartofta in the 1750s and 1760s
Bonde Rasmusson and Karna Christensdotter are the parents. They were married in July of 1757. They seem to have multiple children with the same name.

02 Aug 1761  death of 3 year old child     https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0068906_00217
This is the death of their 3 year old son.  That would have to be the son Christen born 21 Apr 1758 (Image 1) but the name appears to be Rasmus

They did have another son named Rasmus in 1763.  In the tax records for 15 Nov 1765 there are two children listed. Christen age 4 and Rasmus age 2.  They also have two sons named Per born in 1762 and 1768.

Am I interpreting these names wrong? Is it possible that a child was born or died and it is not reported?
Can anyone make sense of this?

lodger Bolla 1 child lodger ? Giertru

I cannot make out what  the word before Giertru is.

The other word I cannot make out is the word on the far right hand side of the right page.

It looks like they are poor and then I cannot make out the other word.

I need help understanding the meaning of two columns in the tax record of Brandstad from the 1790s.  I have translated them but they don't make much sense.
The first column says "Torpare och Gasehusman" which I believe translates to "cottager and street house man".
Under that is says "med utsäde" and "utan utsäde" which I believe translates to "with seeds" and "without seeds".
Below that  is looks like men and women
Are my translations correct?  What does with and without seeds refer to?
Are these for people who own their property?

The next column looks like "inhyses och ?".  I can't make out the last word.
Under that it looks like it says men and women.
Are these people who rent from the land owner?

So it seems that a person should be in one or the other of these two columns.

I am hoping to get a better understanding of what these two columns mean.

I have attached an image of the columns from the 1795 tax registry.

Here is a link to the some of the years around that time which have the same columns

I am wondering if he returned to Sweden. On the moving out record America is crossed out and something is written above it with the date May 02, 1902.  There is also another word in the next column with the number 88 next to it.  Can anyone translate these words?  Do they indicate that he returned to Sweden?

I believe it says Reserve man Rasmus Bonnesson, wife one child.
The hi-lighted word I am unsure of looks like "karlen".  The first letter does not look like a K it looks more like a C.  I believe "karlen" translates to man.  So it looks live he is a reserve soldier.

I am not sure what comes next it may have someone's name, one child    (there was a Giertru and child the year before)
then it says Hanna 76 years and them some name Törkelsson (it might be his brother Isak Törkelsson who lived there the year before)
Hanna is his mother who had just become a widow

The total looks like six or it may be an 8.  If there was a mother and child listed it seems like the total would be 8.

Can anyone clarify who the first three people listed in the record are.  I know one is the minister of the parish but I am not sure who the other two are.  What are the titles next to their names?

Attached are two images take from the household examination records of Janne Fältman.  He was born October 22, 1836 in Harlösa.

The first is from Harlösa 1855-1860.  There is a note on the right side of the page that I cannot make out.

The second is also from Harlösa 1855-1860.  There is a note on the right side of the page that I cannot make out either.
There are two people on this line but it looks like the message applies to him.

Attached are two images of baptism records for Berndt Henriksson's children.  I cannot find the mother's name in either one.
I believe her first name was Gertrud.  Her last name might be Bengtsdotter.
Can anyone figure out who the mother is?

The first is for his daughter Kierstina Berndtsdotter born in Risekatslösa March 23, 1757.

General questions / Finding military records for Påhl Fältman
« skrivet: 2018-06-01, 22:47 »
My fourth great grandfather was born Påhl Berndtsson Nov 15, 1767 in Risekatslösa.  The first records I can find are of him moving into Helsingborgs and getting married in 1795.  His name is now Påhl Fältman.  He is listed in the household examination records with the words "reserve karten" before his name.  I am assuming that he is a reserve soldier.  He must have taken the name Fältman when he was in the military.  Where would I look to find his military records? I do not have an information as to where that was. Would I find that he had changed his name?
Thanks

Attached are 3 images for Bengt Nilsson.  The first two are from the moving out record of 1827 in Helsingborgs. I cannot make out where he is going to and I was wondering what the message says.  It mentions his wife Petronella Feltman.
He was leaving Kopparmöllan, Helsingbors.

My grandmother Signe Andersson came to the United States in 1911 from Goteborg.  On the passenger listing in New York it says that she is coming to America to stay with a friend named Alma Hunter in Detroit Michigan.  My grandmother was 17 at the time and is not related to Alma in any way.  I have not found much on Alma but the 1920 census says she was born in Indiana in 1871.  Her husband Lewis C. Hunter was born in Illinois in 1843.  In the 1920 census my grandmother is listed as a lodger living with the Hunters.  They were much older than my grandmother when she came to America and were not Swedish.  I don't see any connection.  Both my grandparents passed away before I was born and my father knows nothing about why or how his mother came to America. Is it possible that they were some kind of sponsor for her or she responded to an ad?  It seems very odd that she ended up in Detroit.  I hope someone may have ideas as to where to look or was this a common practice?
Thanks

I am trying to locate my third great uncle Pehr Tufvesson after he came to North America from Sweden. He was born April 30 1835 in Holmby, Malmöhus, Sweden. The last records of him in Sweden are records of him leaving Hammarlunda, Sweden Aug 31 1887. It says he is leaving for North America. He left with his 5 children. His wife had passed away.
The children were as follows:
Christina Pehrsdotter January 26, 1869 Hammarlunda, Malmöhus, Sweden
Nils Pehrsson January 26, 1869 Hammarlunda, Malmöhus, Sweden
Janne Pehrsson July 09, 1871 Hammarlunda, Malmöhus, Sweden
Elin Pehrsdotter October 11, 1877 Hammarlunda, Malmöhus, Sweden
Johannes Pehrsson October 11 1877 Hammarlunda, Malmöhus, Sweden

Is there any way to find which ship they left for America on?  I have looked at the New York passenger listings for September 1878 and cannot find them.  Any help or advise would be appreciated.
Thanks,
George

I got this translated to English but I have a few questions about how to interpret this.
Here is the translation to English.

Number 72. The maid Giertrud Torckelsdotter
Is born 1762 in Frenninge parish and Harrarp village
Came year 1782 from Branstad
And now moves to Bransta village back.
Reads in book reasonably well
Recites Dr. Luther's catechism with questions well
recites "Ath.Symb." and "Hustaflan" likewise
recites Dr. Svebelius' Explanations somewhat
and understands in a simple manner.
Attended examination last the 21st of this [month].
The Sacred Communion taken last today.
Is to her manner of living decent.
To marriage free from promises.
Certificate of Kierstorp the 8th September 1783.
[signed]

That Gerdro Torgelsdatter has been employed by me from New Year 1784 in/until(?) Melkelt(??) in Denmark,
and during this time behaved calmly and ???.
Kongens Lyngbye the 6th Ostober 1784
[signed]

It appears that she arrived in Brandstad in 1782.  Then she appears to be coming back to Brandstad from Kierstorp  in 1783.  Whre is Kierstorp?  Then there is a note about working in Lyngbye Denmark in 1784.   I guess she left again and came back from Denmark.  There is also a note on the back which is too hard to read.  This seems like a lot of traveling on one card.  Am I interpreting this correctly? What does "To marriage free from promises." mean?
The "behaved calmly" comment in the note about Denmark seems a bit strange.  Can anyone make out what it says on the back?
Thanks.

« skrivet: 2018-02-14, 22:35 »
Attached is an image of the death record of who I believe is Marten Olasson born Jan 15 1789 in Brandstad.
This death record is from Brandstad 1789 page 88.  I believe the date is Feb 20 1789.  His father was Ola Sjoholm and his mother was Anna Caisa Silfvertelning.  I am not sure if this is Marten or not.  He would have been about 1 month old.  What does the text say? 
Thanks

My third great grandfather Pehr Rasmusson was born illegitimate in Brandstad on Dec 10 1797.  His mother was Gertrud Torkelsdotter but I do not know who the father is.  Gertrud and Pehr show up in the 1803 Brandstad household examination record.  He is 5 years old.  After that  year I cannot find any record of him until he is 15 and living in Brandstad with another family.  Gertrud is listed as a pauper and she in listed evey year in Brandstad until she dies in 1832. I have searched for her sisters and brothers in that time period and he is not found with any of them.  Would he have been sent to an orphanage?  Would he have still been in Brandstad and just not listed?  Would the child have been taken from her? Were there any orpahages in that area?  Is there any way to find the father's name?  I have been researching this for months and would appreciate any advice.
Thanks
