Margit Spannar Persdotter

[Esther]

This is my grandmother. She was born Sept 19, 1879 in Orsa, Hansjo, Sweden. I believe her father was Dunder Per Persson born July 10, 1844 and her mother Anna Persdotter born May 27, 1848.
I would like to know where they were born and who there parents were and also how many children were born to Dunder Per Persson. Thank you for any information you can provide.

Thank you Lena for this information. How much work is involved in tracing my ancestors back thru the generations? Is this something I could do myself on the internet or do you have to come to Sweden and go through the church records.
