I'm trying to find more information on my great great great grandfather's mother, Sigrid Gunnarsdotter.
Anders Nilsson (1752 - 1814) died at Bodatorp in Boda, Värmland. Some of the records I had seen indicated that he was from Värmskog, but his death record shows that he was born at Boda in Stavnäs . It gives Ander's father's name as Nils Nilsson, but it was actually Nils Erson. The error may indicate that Nils died when Anders was very young.

There are records for Nils, but I haven’t been able to find any information on Sigrid, who was Nils’ second wife, and may have been much younger than he was. I am attaching a copy of their marriage record that mentions her name.

I am not able to read it and hope that that someone can tell me what it says.
The relevant Stavnäs records seem to be missing, and it’s possible that after Nils died, Sigrid and Anders both moved to Värmskog.
Records show that Anders lived at Norra Gjärtjön, Värmskog between 1775 and 1782, He moved to Bodatorp in Boda in 1782, the same year he married.
