Didrik Björn

[Carolyn Eccles]

C:3, Series Pastorum, p.393-394 gives a good history of Didrik Björn p.394 says he married Margartea Alm of ?pland
1 February 1728. I can not determine where Margareta is from. Can someone tell me? Thanks for any help

Anna Margareta Alm came from Uppland, an inspector's daughter. No one - I think - has tried to identify her. The "correction" of Didriks ancestry on p. 393 is false; his father, Magnus Nicolai Björn, was indeed son of Nicolaus Björn in Tuna, whose father however was not Nicolaus Petri Björn in Åby (who has never existed) but Nils Jonæ Björn, vicar in Rumskulla and Hässleby, who was vicar in Åby 1613 and 1614.

Bo:
The incorrect part of Didrik Björn's history seems to be crossed out and written in is that Magnus Björn's father was bonde i gård of Björnhult in Mörlunda. This is incorrect?
Thanks for all your help through the years.

Yes, the correct part of his ancestry is crossed out. Magnus Björn's father was not a farmer in Björnhult in Mörlunda parish, but instead Nicolaus Björn in Tuna.
