Johan Ersson

[Greg Rosenvall]

The attached household record shows Johan Ersson was born on 1822-06-23 in Garpenberg but when I look for the birth record there, the entry on 1822-06-23 does not appear to be for "Johan" (see attached).  I cannot find a separate record with Johan's parents to confirm.  Any help would be most appreciated.  Greg

Well, the birth record says Jannes, which is a strange form. In Garpenberg you find him with the name Jannes, Johannes, Jan and finally Johan (in Garpenberg (W) AI:13b (1853-1862) Bild 850 / sid 292 (AID: v130094a.b850.s292, NAD: SE/ULA/10321)), where the birth date is changed back from 28/6 (which he had for some time) to the correct 23/6. He is married in Garpenberg (W) EI:2 (1775-1860) Bild 111 (AID: v130115.b111, NAD: SE/ULA/10321) and moves to Folkärna in 1853. Thus you have found the right birth record.

Thank you, Leif.  Much appreciated!  Greg
