Discussions in English / Names of parents
« skrivet: 2023-12-21, 02:15 »
I am wondering what the parents’ names are for Marta Catrina, born 26 Jul 1859, in Graninge, found at  [/size]sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0040066_00104[/size].  I can’t tell if the parents are listed first or second.  It seems that they would be on the first line, but I cannot interpret what it says in front of each name.  I have looked in household records for Graninge for 1859 but do not see the family listed.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks, Carol

I am trying to find out where Anna Andersdotter (9 Feb 1842, Ivetofta) and her daughter Botilla (13 Jan 1863) moved.  The last record  I have is at https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0060628_00407.


There is a note to the right that says something about a Lars Larsson, but I cannot read it.  Could he possibly be the father?


I would appreciate any help.


Thanks, Carol


After I posted this I found a Lars Larsson with a note to the right.  I think this is the father of Anna's daughter:

Could someone please translate this note that appears to the right of Lars Andersson Norgren in household record through many years.  I thought it meant that he married a Bengt Mansdotter, but I see no record of a marriage. The latest record I found was at https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0060626_00009.

The first record I found shows him at Kristianstad garnison, 1832-1837 and again refers to Bengt Mansdotter.

I have been searching for the parents of Jonas Olofsson for a number of days and cannot find who they are.  I have a DNA match further down the line so I know that he is in my family tree.

The household records I have for him say that he was born in 1789 in Finnerodja.  I have looked at the birth records for that year and several before and after.


He was married to Maja Stina Jansdotter, 24 Sep 1799, also in Finnerodja.  I have been able to track a number of moves until his death on 18 Aug 1881 at Damstugan, Finnerodja. but I cannot seem to find him before 1824. 


The only person who was born in Finnerodja in 1789 who is also in my family tree is Jonas Lindstrom Geting, a soldier.  These two are from the same branch of my tree, but I cannot find the connection with Jonas Olofsson. 


The household records don’t go back far enough for me to find Jonas.  At this point I am thinking his mother was an Olofsdotter who was unmarried at the time, but I have not been able to verify this either.


I would really appreciate any help or suggestions as to where I should look next.


The last record I have showing his death is https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0050096_00191

I have looked everywhere for the date of death for my 5th great-grandmother, Kerstin Johansdotter, born 9 Feb 1696 in Askersund landsformsamling, Orebro.  She was married to Linnar Olofsson, born 16 Sep 1700 in Askersund and died 6 Mar 1763 Store Mosstorp, Undenas, Orebro.  I found his death record, but cannot find hers.  I went through all the death records for Undenas from 1738 on (the birth date of her last child).  I found only one record that might be hers but it was really not legible, 22 Aug 1742.  I have looked at other parishes.  Perhaps some one has access to the Swedish death records that might contain this information.  There are several other family trees on ancestry that have conflicting entries.  I am hoping to find the correct date.  This is where I found Liner's record:

I am trying to verify that the mother of Lenart (Linnar) Olofsson’s children is Kerstin (or Christina) Johansdotter.  Some family trees have Christina Persdotter and some trees have Olof married to three different women.  I believe that Kerstin is the mother of all of his children: Brita, Kerstin, Karin, Johan, Erich, and Lars.  I need someone who can read the Gothic handwriting to verify this.  These are my 5th great grandparents, and the second child Kerstin would be my 4th great-grandmother so I’m hoping this is right.  Otherwise my tree is wrong.


Here are the birth records for the first and last children.  It looks like the same mother to me.  Britta, 5 Aug 1721, [/size]https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0000079_00044[/color]

In looking at a birth record for Edvard Johan (3 Oct 1884) born in Munktorp to Anna Gustafva Jansson, I am wondering if the notes by the witnesses (Erik Ericksson and Anders Andersson)[/size] [/size]provide any clues as to the father.  https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/F0005888_00168[/size]A household record for Muntorp, 1884-1887,  https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0009813_00059 shows Anna living at V Sorby.  Anders Gustaf Eriksson is also living there.  There are a number of names with a letter “B” to the left.  I’m not sure what this means either.  Anna later marries Anders Gustaf Andersson.  I don’t know what the notations mean so don’t know if either of the two witnesses could be the father.  Some family trees on ancestry list Anders Gustaf Andersson as the father, but I am not sure.

I am looking at a birth record for Stig Henry Andersson, born 17 Oct 1937, in Undenas, to Gustaf Henry Nathanael Anderson, 1913-1995, and Ester Maria Johansson, 1916-1987.  It seems that they were not married at the time, but the note to the right may indicate that they did get married after the birth.  I cannot find any marriage records for them in Tived or Undenas; but the records may not be complete.  Also, another family tree on ancestry has him as the father of Karl Gosta Holm, 23 May 1936, born in Tived; but I can’t find a birth record for him. 


There is a note under Stig Henry’s name which I’m guessing means the father is known, but I don’t see this word in my Swedish-English dictionary.  Also, I cannot read the note to the right.

I am looking at a birth record for Karl Eskil, born 12 Jun 1917 to Beda Matilda Ledin f. Larsdotter, 27 May 1884 in Kumla, Orebreo.   The father is listed as Axel Ledin, 4 Mar 1885.  According to the household records I have looked at, Axel Ledin left Kumla for America on 7 Feb 1913.  I did not see him on any household records in Kumla for 1917; however, I did find him on the ship Fridland as a crew member, returning to America on 24 Dec 1917.  So it is possible that he is the father of Karl Eskil.  There is a note to the right of this birth record that I cannot read.  I hope this will provide some additional information if someone can translate it for me.  Thanks so much, Carol

I hope someone can help me with a contradiction in my family tree.  My 4th GGF, Anders Olofsson, 11 Oct 1735 - 5 Dec 1789, was born in [/size]Heden, Skellefteå, Västerbotten, Sweden.  I am unsure of the dates as I cannot find any supporting records.  I’ve looked through the records on riksarkivet, but it looks like the records were in a fire possibly.  And they are hard to read.


Also I’ve found some records of an Anders with a birth year of 1933.  However, the big problem is that I have his parents as Olof Jakobsson, 1697-1741, and Brita Andersdotter, 1697-1739, all birth in Skelleftea.  I’m not sure this is accurate either.  I’m hoping someone can confirm his parents.


Something must be wrong as I have 3 DNA matches through an Olof Jakobsson, with different dates and a different wife.  His dates are 1696-1764.  His wife is Karin Andersdotter, 1704-1787.  All are from Skelleftea.


I am thinking that my 5th GGF Olof Jakobsson, born 1697 is wrong.


Any help would be appreciated as I’ve spent 3 days pouring through records that are mostly illegible, and my eyes are burning!

Does this notation for Lars Gunnar Johansson, 2 Nov 1923, mean that he changed his name to Sondebjer?  It looks like this is the name on the next household record referenced.

Discussions in English / Did this marriage take place?
« skrivet: 2022-05-13, 00:08 »
I am trying to determine if these two people did get married or was it called off (Irenes Viktor Sjoholm and Albertina Kristina Johansson).  The record on ancestry has lines drawn through parts of the record.  In the Riksarkivet record[/size] [/size]https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/80001409_00010  (the first listing for 1896 in Ljungarum) shows no wedding date and entries made under the column labeled Hvilket….


Also a child was born on 8 Feb 1896 and in the column for Modren, there is a check under Trolofvad, which means betrothed.  My feeling is that the wedding never took place.


If I can verify this, it will probably clear up my question before this one.

Could someone tell me what it says to the right on this household record listing Irenes Viktor Sjoholm, 5 Apr 1872?  Does the “d” indicate a divorce?  I know that he remarried in 1912.  Are divorces listed somewhere?  Thanks,

I am looking at a household record which has Emmy Karolina Lundqvist Sjoholm, 19 Oct 1896, listed.  She is the daughter of Beda Karolina Lundqvist but I don’t believe that her father was Irenes Viktor Sjoholm (both listed on lines 1 and 2).  There is a notation to the right of Emmy’s name which I cannot read.  Does this give a clue as to the father?  Apparently she was born in a home for unwed mothers in Stockholm.

What is strange is that apparently her son and I share DNA; however, it is her adopted mother who is my relative, Gunhild Maria Oberg.  I have tried searching for a connection in the family that would link Gunhild (adopted mother) with Elin (biological mother) but cannot find one.

In the Norberg household records for 1915-1941, SE/ULA/11099/A II a/13, Page 1343 (https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/00182219_00133). there are a lot of comments on this record pertaining to the Engstrom family.  I have tried to sort this out as best I can.  It seems that on line 2 Johan Alfred Engstrom visited America in 1917 but returned to Sweden.  Later he must leave his family for Canada as some family trees have him dying there.  On line 4 his son Johan Emanuel is acknowledging a daughter with Anna Birgitta Magnusson.  Her name is Rut Anna-Stina.  Line 5 has another son Klas Gunnar leaving for Canada in 1919 and a daughter Rut Elisabet leaving for Canada in 1921.  Further down Rut returns from Canada in 1922 but leaves again in 1925.  I don’t know if there is anything else pertaining to her on the notes to the right.  Then on line 7 Gully Linnea marries Erik Johan Gylfe.   Unsure of what else it says.  There is some notation next to Gully’s name “icke dopt”?


Then on line 11 it looks like Rut Elisabet has a child Maria Elisabet???  It says Rut Elisabet ??  There are notations to the right, but I have no idea what they say.


Line 16 also has some notes to the right regarding Johan Emanuel.  Again I don’t know what this says.


Thanks for any help in translating these notations.

(I think).  I’ve seen numbers like this in columns that I believe indicate military service, but I don’t know what that means.


I did find what I think might be a death record, but his name reads Karl Fridolf Mentz, 10 Apr 1945 in Degerfors.  The birth date matches but not the name.  He was in the military so it’s possible that his name was changed.  Also, there is a word “predikant” next to his name.  I took this to be “minister”.   The death record shows him to be married, but I cannot find any marriage record.

The following links are estate inventories for my 3rd great-grandparents (thanks to Per Petterson & Jorgen Tollesson).  My 3rd great-grandmother died first - Britta Olofsdotter 29 Jun 1817.  Jan Andersson, my 3rd GGF died 3 Apr 1831.  Would it be possible for someone to translate the first parts of each and the signature pages?  I understand that it would be too much trouble to translate the entire inventory, so would you tell me what types of items are listed - tools, animals, etc.?  It apears that they were fairly well-off as the number of items seems large.  I'm not sure as I cannot read Swedish.  Also, what would be done with these estates?  Are they taxed or listed mainly to pass ownership?  Thanks for any help.  Carol[/size]

Jan Andersson (25 Jul 1747) Bremon, Ramsnäs, Finnerödja is my 3rd great-grandfather.  He had 8 children.  I have been able to trace 4 of them but am finding it difficult to trace the other four:
Anders (20 Aug 1777), Stina (14 Aug 1778), Olof (10 Apr 1785) and Jacob (8 Jul 1787).  Maybe Anders died at an early age as I cannot find anything on him.  I did find a record for Stina in Korterud, [/size]sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0050089_00116, but did not see her past 1809.  There is a reference for Olof that he left Bremon in 1805 but I cannot read the name of the place, [/color][/size]sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0050089_00107.  I looked in the Moving Out records but don’t see him in that year.  I also found a record for Jacob that says that he left Bremon in 1810 for Askersund, but I don’t see any records for Moving In to that parish for that year.  Are there other records that would help me trace these ancestors?  And I don’t want to look through the entire household records for Askersund, which I started doing but gave up on after many pages.  Thanks for any help and/or suggestions.

I have conflicting dates of death for Josefina Amalia Eriksdotter, born 27 Jan 1866, in Fredsberg; father Erik Eriksson; mother Maria Larsdotter.  I have traced her through rikvarset, which has her moving into an old age home in 1917. To the far right of this record, it looks like she died 28 Feb 1932.  However, I could not find her in the death records for that year.  Ancestry has a death record of 27 May 1845.  I have attached the two records.  Thanks for any help.  Carol

What is the word underneath Johan August name?  It looks like "regta", but I can't find this in the dictionary.  This references Johan August Jacobsson.  The record can be found at sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0050763_00168, Hova birth records, 1815-1866.

I am trying to trace Stina Jansdotter, 14 Aug 1778, born in Finnerodja.  I cannot interpret the parish? she moved to in 1803 I believe.  I don't see any names that match, but I'm not sure what the record says.  Thanks for any help.

I have found the following in a household record: "såkinal hustru".  I know the second word is wife; however, I cannot find the meaning of the first word.  I've tried several translation sites and my Swedish dictionary.  Could this be like a common law wife?  Thanks, Carol

I am trying to track a Johannes Jansson, born 19 Jun 1825 in Hova.  I found a household record (1819-1845) with a notation to the right which I can't read.  I'm not sure it is a parish name as I couldn't find any in Hova that looked similar.  But the notation indicates that some event happened in 1851 I think.  I am attaching the household record and notation.  Any help would be appreciated.

I am looking at a birth record for Johan Larsson at sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0053145_00218.  I have never seen a record with what looks like a note referencing the parents below.  I'm not sure what this means.  Was this really their son or some kind of adoption?

This would be my 3rd great-grandmother.  She died 12 Mar 1824 in Byarums parish. I am trying to verify my tree and am unsure of what I have.  What does it say after her name.  It looks like she was 65 when she died, but this does not quite fit with what I have for her birth.  Also, does it say what she died from?  Thanks. I got this record from https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0021166_00304

I am not sure if this is an announcement of an engagement to marry or not.  Johannes Danielson and Cajsa Ericsdotter are my 2nd great-grandparents.  I found this record in the Aker marriage records.  I think it is the announcement that they will wed in May???  However, when I look for a marriage record it shows a Johannes Dannelsson and Cajsa Gustafsdotter marrying on 27 May 1833.  Maybe this was a mistake as all other records I have show her to be Cajsa Ericsdotter.  In any case, I am attaching the record I have.  Thanks for any help.

What is the definition of Båtsmansson[/color]I have tried several translation websites.  The closest is something to do with boats.  The person I'm looking at moved to America and is listed as a master mariner, so I believe this is probably the same person.

I am attaching a document for Ingeborg Elvira Maria Arvesson.  I have a birth record with no parents listed, but there is a reference of "okanda".  I have tried numerous translations, but nothing makes sense so I'm not sure what this means.  Some trees have her mother as Anna Maria Ekstrom, and I see this name on the document.  Is this her real mother are is this an adoption record.  Also some trees have Anders Lindstrom as her father.  He would be my great-granduncle.  So I am trying to verify that this is really his daughter or just Anna's daughter, or what the relationship is.  Thanks, Carol Kemp

Attached are two records.  The first is from a household record in Hungstorp, Hova.  Maria Larsdotter is my 3rd great-grandmother.  Below her is her son Anders (who died in 1823).  Then there is a Maja Stina Johansdotter with "fl" (I think) before her name and lots of writing to the side.  Also listed is Carl Johan Eriksson? with "fatthj" (I think) before his name and more writing to the side.  I am wondering if they are related to Maria.  The second record is the birth record of Maja Stina Johansdotter (14 Jun 1817 in Hova, but I don't know who she is.  I thought she might be the daughter of another son, Johannes Jansson, but the birth record indicates that a Johannes Nilsson is the father.  Could he have changed his name?  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks.

I have found birth records for all the older children of the Jan Larsson family but cannot find records for Eva, Martha, and Lars (born 1796, 1799, and 1800.  The other children's records were under Hova.  It looks like Eva was born elsewhere (Amnch?) or does this mean something else?

I am attaching a screen shot of a church record from Hova.  The record is under Hungstorp.  This is the Jan Larsson family.  I have the names and dates of birth, but I cannot read or interpret some of the items.  I believe that the 1801 means that the family moved from Finnerodja in 1801.  I see that Jan died in 1815 but cannot read what it says beside that.  Also, what does it say by Johannes (1790) and Anders (1794).  I think Jan is my 3rd great-grandfather; however I have had a hard time verifying this as I can't seem to track the family in the household records.  My 2nd great-grandmother was Ingrid Jansdotter (11 Nov 1783), but I have never been able to find a household record with Ingrid listed.  I did find a moving out record for an Ingrid Jansdotter in 1800 from Finnerodjato Backen but cannot find a household record in either place for her.  Any help would be appreciated.  I think this is the correct Jan Larsson (1753) but there are several others and some of the trees on ancestry have different names and dates.

I am looking for a great-uncle, Anders Olofsson, born 26 Oct 1824 in Hofva.  I have found a record in the Stockholm Archives with Anders Olofsson.  The type says "Move", the place is "Nikolai, Stockholm.  His occupation is "Tjenstgosse".  I have tried numerous online dictionaries but cannot find a translation for this.  Also, I don't know where to go to look at the actual record.  I found this through Familysearch.org, and it says it's from "[/size]Sweden, Stockholm City Archives, Index to Church Records, 1546-1927", but I cannot locate this.  Also I have gone to Riksarkivet but there are so many parishes that I don't know where to look. I do not see Nikolai as a parish.  Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Swedish names / Petter Sjoholm
« skrivet: 2020-03-31, 00:13 »
I am looking for information on my great-grandfather, Petter Sjoholm.  I cannot find his birthdate, other than the year 1789.  He was married to Karna Larsdotter. They had four children, Hanna, Kjersti, Petronella, and Nils Peter, my great-grandfather who emigrated.  I found a marriage record of 12 Aug 1820 in Ivetofta, Kristianstads, Sweden.  I also found a death record in the same place of 5 Mar 1845.  And I found a household record listing him with a birth year but no month or day.  It looks like he was born in Waa (or would this be Va).  The place name at the top left of the page reads Raby and something unreadable after that.  This was in the household records file for Ivetofta, 1832-1840.  (Image 162 of 449), page 296.  I have searched everywhere for his birthdate and parents but cannot find them.  Thank you so much for any help you can give.  As we are stuck inside our homes, I have gotten back to my family tree as a pastime.

I am trying to find information on my grandmother's family.  Her name was Amanda Johannesson (Jonsson), and she was born on 17 Feb 1862 in Jonkoping, Smaland.  I found a website of the JBGF, Jönköpingsbygdens Genealogiska Förening. (jbgf.se/engindex).  After looking through all the parishes, I found her in Byarum parish.  Her father was listed as Jonas Johannesson and her mother was listed as Johanna Svensdotter.  I looked for earlier births from the same parents and found a son, Klas Gustav, born 11 Sep 1859.  My grandmother immigrated to the US in 1884.  We always spelled her name as Jonsson.  Not until I saw the birth record did I see it spelled differently.  There was also a sister who was called Clara, but I could find no record of her birth.  The only record I could find on my great grandfather was that he was born in 1830 and was married in 1859 in Byarum parish.  I can find nothing on my great grandmother or anything earlier on that side of my family.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you.
