Eric Olofsson born 1786

[Georgina Smith]

Eric was born 26 May 1786 in offerdal. His parents were Olof Larsson and Cherstin Larsdotter.
 
I do not know if he remained in Offerdal. Also another possiblity is that he was a soldier and had a different last name as most soldiers did.
 
I am hoping that information can be found about his marriage and children.
 
Many thanks!

Georgina!
He sure was a soldier and first moved to Aspås and then to Undersåker and later back to Offerdal and the place Åflo. He 1807 married Ingeborg Olofsdotter born 1776 in Undersåker. She died in Åflo 1833 and Erik died in Åflo 1836. They got at least two children, Anna b 1809 (died 1880 in Tångeråsen, Offerdal) in Järpen, Undersåker and Olof 1815 in Åflo, Offerdal.
His soldier name was Ekbom.

Many thanks!

I agree that the above mentioned Erik from Offerdal was a soldier and moved to Aspås parish. But his name was not Ekbom, it was Holm. He died at Lundsjön, Aspås in 1861. When he marries Märet Jonsdotter 1815, the records say that he is born in Offerdal. With her he had five children.
 
[Erik Ekbom was born in Norway].

Thank you very much for the update Karl. I will also hope to get the names of the children at some time.
 
Many thanks!
