Need help with 1801 Estate Inventory

[Victoria Cihla]

Can anyone help me with the information regarding Anna Persdotter in the attached copies from the Estate Inventory for Per Hansson who died in November 1801?  My question is where his widow, Anna Persdotter, is still living at the time of this inventory.

He is not listed as a widower on his death record but I found a death record that may be hers earlier in the same year.  They are both listed on the 1798-1802 household records, but neither are listed after that.  There is a note by his name only indicating he died in 1801. 

Any help in understanding this part of the estate inventory would be greatly appreciated.

Hello again,

It says


"Åhr 1801 d 23 November infuno sig eftter anmodan til at upteckna och wärdera den lila quwar låten skapen som befans eftter afledne torparen Pär Hansson i Lilla Brod hult (Lilla Broddhult). då des barn och mågar woro närwarande, sonen Hans Pärsson i mäst (Mäste), mågarna Jöns Andersson i brodhult, Carl Magnus Östher i Slättewrå, Jöns Danjelsson i Skiärseryd och Jon Pärsson i Linnghult, och Egen domen uppgafs utaf des eftterlämnade änka, Anna Pärsdotter som fölier nämlig..."

I.e. Anna is responsible for inventing the estate, at the time they are living at Lilla Broddhult (Broddalt) and she signs herself widow at the end of the document. You can find her in the household examination roll:

Vrå (G) AI:1 (1788-1817) Bild 73 / sid 131 (AID: v21208.b73.s131, NAD: SE/VALA/00433)

Anna does not seem to live there after, have you followed her children? Maybe she is living with one of them. It cannot be her that died there in January - and then sign a document...

Hi again, Yvonee,

Thank you for this information.  Yes, that was my confusion.  I am still in the process of doing this research but was puzzled by the January death record I had found.  I thought she must still be alive.

Thank you again for your help, 

Vicki
