Stina and Greta Maria Jonsdotter

[Heather Shepard]

Hello!  
I was wondering if anyone would be willing to check the Emibas CD for these two sisters?  I am not sure if they emmigrated or not.  
 
Stina was born 23 Sep 1836 in Brane, Grasmark, Varmland, Sweden.  I believe she married a Gustaf Olsson.  Gustaf may have been born 7 Apr 1826 in Gunnarskog, Varmland, Sweden, but I am not sure if I read the household record correctly.  
 
Greta Maria was born 10 Dec 1845 also in Brane.
   
Their parents were Jons Jonsson born 3 Aug 1811 in Grasmark?, and Kjerstin Nilsdotter born 1812 in Grasmark.  
 
The last record I have of them is on page 488.39.6360 in Abborsjon?, Treskog, Gunnarskog, Varmland, Sweden.  I believe Gustaf and Stina had three children at that time; Peter?, Kajsa, and Stina.  I think the daughter Stina died in 1866.  
 
Any help would be wonderful!
 
Thank you,
Heather

GID 488.39.63600, Gustaf Olsson, Stina Jönsdotter, and children move to Bogen parish.
 
According to the parish history pages Bogen was a not genuine annex-parish to Gunnarskog 1850-1922.
 
They are found in Bogen HFL AI:5 1871-1880 page 14 (GID 467.9.48300) at Axland.
 
Gustaf Olsson dies 1874, and Stina remarries to Petter Olsson at the top of the same page.
 
They are next in Bogen HFL AI:6 1881-1890 page 11 (GID 467.10.58000), and AI:7 1891-1895 page 10 (GID 467.12.4700).
 
And in Swedish Cencus 1900 they are still at Axland in Bogen parish:

GID 488.39.63600, Greta Maria born 10 Dec 1845 in Gräsmark, moves 1866 to page 754 (GID 488.35.4800) from where she moves 1869-08-13 to Gräsmark.
 
This might be her in Befolkning 1890:
 
Persson, Jöns b. 1838 Fthear
Jönsd:r, Greta Maria b. 1845 Mother
- Inga Kristina b. 1872 child
- Johan b. 1875 child
- Lydia b. 1879 child
- Petrus b. 1882 child
- Axel Emanuel b. 1888 child
 
Jönsd:r, Greta Maria
f. 1845 i Gräsmark (Värmlands län, Värmland)
h:u [wife]
Gift kvinna, mor i familjen [married woman, mother]
 
Tosseberg Bussfallet, Gräsmark (Värmlands län, Värmland)
-------------------------------------------
 
And in Swedish Cencus 1890:
 
Persson, Jöns b. 1838 Father
Jönsdotter, Greta Maria b. 1845 Mother
- Petrus b. 1882 Child
- Axel Emanuel b. 1888 Child
 
Jönsdotter, Greta Maria
b. 1845 in Gräsmark (Värmlands län, Värmland)
h.
Woman, married, mother
 
Tosseberg, Gräsmark (Värmlands län, Värmland)
--------------------------------------------
 
A check in the Gräsmark HFL AI:29 page 492 1886-1892 (GID 487.42.6400) at Bussfallet under Tosseberg, shows that this Greta Maria Jönsdotter was born 1845-12-10, so she should be your Greta Maria.

Bo,
Thank you so very much for all that wonderful information.  That will really help me continue my research.  I was getting lost with the moving around.  What does an annex-parish mean?
 
Thanks Again,
Heather Shepard

An annex parish was a junior parish that was part of a larger parish.
 
Sometimes they didn't keep all their own church books, sometimes you can see (from writing style, etc.) that the church books were kept by the same person as in the main parish.

Bo,  
Thank you for the explanation.  I did not know anything about annex parishes.  
 
Thanks,
