Andersson, Isak (1783-1828)

[Carol Adams]

Looking for parents and relatives of my gggrandfather, Isak Andersson, born in Hassleby, Karlstorp in Nov 1783 and died in Lovasen, Karlstorp Dec 17, 1828.  He married Sara Lena Jonsdotter (9 Nov 1798-?)  Their son, Johannes Isaksson emigrated to the US in 1852 and lived in Andover, Henry Co, Illinois.

Hello Carol,  
 
There is complication in that the church records for 1770-1800 are missing for Hässleby parish.  
I tried to follow Isak back. I found he lived in Sjöarp, Lönneberga parish in 1808.
At the same time Johannes Andersson lives in Sjöarp and he is also the god parent (witnes) when Johannes was born in 1822. So I thought he may be a brother, especially since he also lived i Hässleby before he married in 1795. But he was born already in 1761 i Björnstorp, Hult parish. Not impossible, his father may have remarried. We have to look for clues, but this is not the easiest. I will be back if I find something.
