Anna Olsdotter and Paul Pedersson Mellangard

[David Johansson]

Could someone help me find my Great, Great, Great Grandmother Anna Olsdotter's family. She was supposedly born October 03,1830 in Norsjon,Dalarne,Sweden and married a Norwegian man by the name of Paul Pedersson Mellangard on February 17,1855 in Transtrand,Kopparberg,Sweden. They had 15 children total and 10 of them were born in Sweden. Thanks a lot!

I found the marriage listing with banns posted beginning December 1854 and continuing into January 1855 until they were married Feb 17 as you wrote.
I found the listing of the family (showing Anna for the last time in that family) in the records for Norrsjön and post the scan here for your benefit.  You will note that Anna's name is lined out and the note to the left gift is all we have about her.  The marriage info page was very difficult to read.
I found this at Swenson Swedish Immigration Research Center here in Rock Island.

Chuck,
 
Thank you for your time! So what you are saying is that this document was done at a later date in the official book after the fact that she was married (gift) and left the roost so to speak? Also, is that Karina Ersdotter and Olaf Olsson or Olafsson that are her parents? Just trying to clarify the spellings. Thanks again for your help!

Hej David,  
what you got from Chuck is a copy from the Husförhörslängd, the listing over households in the parish. This copy must be from the volume used during the years around when she got married - that's why the pastor had overlined her name, and noted gift (=married) to remember why.  
So, Olof (I doubt he was named Olaf, I have never met or heard of a Swede called so)Olsson and Karina Ersdotter were Annas parents, and the others listed were her siblings.
Hälsningar,
Britt
