Per Oredsson

[Mary Nelson Keithahn]

According to tax records of 1825 and 1835, my gg-grandfather Per Oredsson (b. 1779, m. Elna Persdotter, b. 1791) had a farm in Donaberger, Ostra Goinge Kommun, Kristianstad Lan, Sweden that was assessed at 2 7/32 mantal. However, when my g-grandfather, Nils Persson, was born on August 11, 1822, the family must have been in Hjarsas. Nils had these siblings:  Anders, b. 1810; Bengta, b. 1813; Ored, b.1819; and Per, b. 1828. I do not have any birthplaces listed for the siblings. Is there any way to find out if the family moved to Donaberger from Hjarsas?  I would like to know when Per and Elna died and where they are buried, and whether there are any living descendants of Nils Persson's siblings.  Any information will be appreciated.

Per Oredsson resided at Dönaberga nbr  2;  7/32 mantal, as of 1815. I have not gone  back earlier.
I made some spot tests in the population registers for Hjärsås parish. They are online on the subscription service from SVAR (www.svar.ra.se) until 1820.
Per was still there in 1820, (a widow called Sissa lived with that family);
 
Original records are stored at the province archive in Lund, thus even after 1820.
