Abild

[Boris Örnhäll]

Hej Margreth.
 
Följer man honom bakåt i mantalslängderna så hittar man honom tillslut i Årstad där han återfinns som sockenskräddare. Där står det: b[arn]född i Siöred Abild sn. I födelseboken för Abild 1737 finner man honom på sidan 72 som son till Hans Persson och Karin Hellgesdotter.
 
Mvh
Boris

Hej Margareta!
Enl mina gamla noteringar finns Sven Bengtsson i Mtl på Nygranna från 1681. Han begravs 1719 86 år gammal. I Mtl 1702 har han en son Per. Jag har inte följt sonen, min ana är brodern Jöns Svensson (c 1764-1727).

Borgared i Abild fungerade som skola på 1950-talet. Det revs och byggdes upp som bostad nere i Abilds samhälle.

[Sven-Olof Svensson]

Min farfarsfar Johannes Larsson Tingvad Abilds socken var torpare under Hjulebergs gods. Född 1842 död 1925 var gift med Edvina som hade en lärd släkting i Heberg. En kusin till henne som hette Mårten gick hela vägen till Lund och läste senare till präst. Blev sen komminister i Göteborg.Hans sonson Harald tog sen namnet Hallen. Han blev präst i Arvika och radiopräst samt riksdagsman i49 år . och enl. uppgift den som var officiant när statsminister Per-Albin Hansson begravdes . Har fått dessa uppgifter. Men kan någon bekräfta dessa?

[Sven-Olof Svensson]

Har nu fått bekräftelse från flera håll bl.a. från sonsonen som också heter Harald att han jordfäste PA Hansson. Från Gert Ahlqvist t.o.m. vad han sa i sitt tal.Min farfarsfarmor Edvina var inte kusin med den Mårten den som gick till Lund och läste till präst, utan hans son Birger.Birger var redaktör för Post och Inrikes tidningar i Göteborg.

[Sven-Olof Svensson]

Nio år försenat till Are som frågade om en dansk sognepräst från 1600 till 1660 i Abild . Har via Abildsboken konstaterat att  1660 tillträdde den förste svenske kyrkoherden Christer Öjersson sin tjänst.Tidigare finns inte noterat. Däremot stämmer det att prästgården heter Ingelstorp precis som idag.

Jag söker upplysningar om min mormors syskon. Föräldrarna Per August Johansson f. 18790818 och Johanna Karolina f. 18831112.De flyttade från Harplinge till Årstad 19190521 där min mormors syskon måste ha fötts Elin och Gunnar.  
Kan man också ta reda på när familjen flyttade från Årstad till Berghem?
 
Tacksam för all hjälp.
Vänligen Carina Hagström

Hej.
Har en fråga om gården där jag föddes, Humselynga 1:5.
I abildsboken står det att ägaren 1896-1904 var Mårten Svensson.
Men har där bott nån innan dess och när byggdes stället?
Alla tips om var jag kan söka info tas taksamt emot.
Gert

[Gert Larsson]

I will be travelling from Canada to Abild area in a couple weeks and would like to find out if the farm where my grandmother was born is still standing.  She was born Emelie Kristina Andersdotter, Jan 23, 1877 at a farm named Örbäck, Ablid.  We will have a rented car and would love to drive by if it is.  
Also where was the nearest church they would have attended and had the children christened in.
Thank you so much for any assistance you can give me.
Eileen

[John Bentley]

Type Örbäck, SLÖINGE into Var on www.eniro.se.  You can zoom in and out on the map. (I suspect you were pointed to this link from asking elsewhere earlier this year !) J

[Eileen Cook]

Thank you John.  I appreciate the link to the map site.
Would you know the answer to the question regarding the nearest church to Örbäck?
Regards,  Eileen

[John Bentley]

The Eniro map pulled up for Örbäck, SLÖINGE at scale 10 shows churches (a cross) in Abild (north west) and Årstad (west).  Abild is both the nearer at about 3 km and was at the time their parish church.  The churches now in Susedalens församling (parish, the modern enlarged one) are Abild, Asige, Årstad, Slöinge and Eftra.  A range of contacts can be seen on http://mildmedia.se/sloinge/?pg=102 but I suggest you contact the parish office susedalens.forsamling@svenskakyrkan.se for help as to open times.  Some churches are open to visit in the day, but for others - I have stopped at Eftra church a number of times and never found it open.  I assume you have looked up http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abild .  You can see pictures at http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Abilds_kyrka

[Eileen Cook]

The sites you have sent me are great.  Thank you John.  
I have been search in Abild parish on arkiv digital and have found my family in Elmås, Abild as well .  I presume this is a farm or settlement name.  I looked on different maps that have been suggested to me but have not been able to find Elmås.  Does anyone know if it still exists and if not, where is might have been close to.   Thank you.

[Eileen Cook]

John,   I am sorry about the translation program I am using.  It doesn't always translate the way I wish it to.  Hope you can understand what I am saying

[John Bentley]

I checked with the HSF web site http://hallandsslaktforskare.se/index.php/slaktforskningshjalp/forsamlingar/abil d/57-abild and Älmås or Elmås was simply a 1 mantal farm, that is originally supporting just one family. Buildings are likely long gone. My best searching on the modern spelling Älmås, suggests the area is now a nature reserve.  The key bit from http://www.lansstyrelsen.se/halland/SiteCollectionDocuments/sv/djur-och-natur/sk yddad-natur/natura-2000/%C3%84lm%C3%A5s.pdf describes it as Natura 2000 site Almås located on an easterly slope, in gently undulating terrain about 7 miles east of Abild. The area is rich in cultural history tracks and remains.  You can locate it from the map which is included.

[Eileen Cook]

I can't thank you enough for the help you have given me John.  I feel much more prepared for this visit because of your help.   The links you gave me above are fantastic.  Such good information.   Helpful as well in researching the Kinnared, Torup areas.   If I think of anything else before leaving in 1 weeks time I will post again.  Most grateful for assistance.  Eileen

[Monica Hallberg]

Dear Eileen Cook,
 
I suppose that you already visited Sweden and Abild. By a coincidence I saw your question from 2012 in Aforum today. I was looking for a relative from Elmås and just scrolled among questions from Abild. And I was really glad and surprised to see that you mentioned Emelie Kristina Andersdotter. My grandfathers mother was her father Anders Gabrielssons sister. And I have been searching for his family. I knew that he went to America, but I couldn´t find anything about his family after that they lived in Kinnared. I would be very happy if we could have a more privat contact and tell each other about our common relatives. My grandfathers name: Gottfrid Pettersson (Johansson) and his mothers name: Mathilda Gabrielsdotter.
 
 
 
With best regards

If possible could I please have help with translation of a birth and christening record found on ArkivDigital in   Abild C1:4 (1861-1894) image 83/page 79
Entry 4: Emelie Kristina born January 23 (1877)  It is mostly the second half where the witnesses are listed, as well as the remarks written the last column.
 
I also find it interesting that entry 4 is out of order?
 
Thank you so much.

[John Bentley]

This is a case of getting used to the shorthand used. My best effort -  
 
Emilie Kristina, 2nd child, born 23rd, bap 27th, father Anders Gabrielsson, mother Ida Andreasdotter (Likely, often becomes Andersdotter in records), Inhyses = stay at home mother, married 6 yrs. Godparents Und = Pensioner Andreas Johansson & wife Greta Magnusdotter from Nädhult N:o 3 Kinnared (from 1880 census, Kinnared), (Her parents), and Samuel Karlsson (m h - with wife ?)also Kinnared.  
 
Last column says baptised in Kinnared, according to proof written 29 Jan, sent to priest in Abild. We do not know how the register entries were done, whether later from other notes or at the time of baptism, but the numbers are according to birth date order. (Not always the case elsewhere)
 
Note the family were in the poorhouse in Kinnared in 1890.  
Gabrielsson, Anders   1845   F Andersdotter, Ida   1846   M  
(Barn), Emelia Kristina   1877   Ch  (Barn), Karl August   1881   Ch

[Kristina Gunnarsdotter]

It also tells the place (Örbäck) and the page in the parish book (160).
 
And a correction: Inhyses means tenant, they did not own their housing.

[John Bentley]

Oh dear, I missed them at the bottom of that page, 160, Abild AI:7 1874-87, parents and a son Gustaf Alfrid, when I looked.  But other Gabrielssons and Gabrielsdotters on the page!  Related ?
 
Also I missed that it was Gabrielsson And. Inhys, so it refers to him. Still things for me to learn.
 
Do I manage 9/10 ?

[Eileen Cook]

Thank you both so much.  Now it makes a bit of sense as my grandma Emelie in most records states she was born in Kinnared.  I believe she was born at her grandparents home at Nädhult N:o 3 in Kinnared, baptized there, then just over a month later the family moves from Örbäck to Snapparp, Torup.   She may never have actually lived in Örbäck herself.
 
Can you tell me anything about the poorhouse in Kinnared the family lived in, in 1890.  Would the poorhouses be a large institute as they were in England, and perhaps be run by the church??
Perhaps I could post a note on the Kinnared parish discussion.

[Kristina Gunnarsdotter]

The other Gabrielsson and Gabrielsdotter on AI:7 page 160 are Anders' siblings. See the family in AI:6 page 132. There is at least one more child.
 
I don't know how the poorhouse in Kinnared looked like. Maybe you could ask the local society there. They have a homepage: http://www.kinnared.nu/byn-12642831

[Margareta Danielsson]

Eileen, they did not live in the poorhouse, but in the old schoolhouse (gamla skolhuset). Anders Gabrielsson was in America since 1885. The family moved back to Torup 1891
 
Kinnared AI:6 (1883-1894) page 89, line 24-27 Gamla skolhuset
Torup AI:15 (1883-1894) page 208 Skattegård
Torup AI:16 (1883-1894) page 528 Snapparp

[Eileen Cook]

Thank you once again.  Everyone has been most helpful.
from Eileen in Canada

[Kristina Gunnarsdotter]

Well, in the 1890 census it says they live in the poorhouse (Fattigstugan). Either a mistake or they might have been poor, supported by the community and given the right to live in the old schoolhouse.
