Swedish geography / Hedby in Leksand, Kopparberg

« skrivet: 2018-11-19, 19:30 »

I am trying to follow a family in Hedby through time but The Hedby village or farm seems to disappear from the Leksand household records from 1741 - 1772 and then reappears in the next volume. How do I find out if Hedby had a different name during this time period.
Thanks
Genee.

Discussions in English / Translation of death record.

« skrivet: 2018-11-19, 17:30 »

I was wondering if someone could help me with the translation of a very detailed death record Leksand (W) F:9 (1741-1752) Bild: 42 Sida: 38 It is for Margeta Larsdotter and is Item 2 on 25 p. Trinitatis. I can read a little Svenska but I am self taught and have trouble with vocabulary. I don't know if it is possible to do a complete translation on this forum or if someone would need my email address. The record gives information about her husband's death that I don't completely understand but I suspect that because he was a soldier he may have fallen in Stora nordiska Kriget. I can find no death record in his parish and I'm not entirely sure how to find that information in military records. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Genee

Discussions in English / Help reading probate record

« skrivet: 2018-08-08, 19:27 »

I can read about 35% of these probate records but I would like to get more information from them. The record for the mother Elin Eriksdatter in the family I am researching is here Vedbo häradsrätt (P) FIIa:4 (1767-1772) Bild: 532 Sida: 1059 and the record for the father Erik Börjesson is here Vedbo häradsrätt (P) FIIa:4 (1767-1772) Bild: 464 Sida: 923 and here Vedbo häradsrätt (P) FIIa:4 (1767-1772) Bild: 469 Sida: 933 and here Vedbo häradsrätt (P) FIIa:4 (1767-1772) Bild: 470 Sida: 935. Mostly what I would like to know is if there is any hint as to where the children went after their parents died and if it says anything about where Erik may have been born. The children I knew about before I found this probate record were born in Tisselskog, Älvsborg. I did not find any record of birth or baptism in Tisselskog for their son Börge or their son Erik.
Thank you very much.
