Titel: Help with birth record script
Skrivet av: Donna Aasness skrivet 2018-03-17, 21:13
Again I can read some of the script but fail to make out parts that may not mean much but would like a full understanding of what is written.  This is a birth record that starts on the bottom of one page and continues to the next from county Malmöhus, Södra Åby, 1811-1831 Image 31, GID 1380.34.62300 # KL-358 month of May 1820.

Kristina this is wonderful because I know Jöns father was also a tailor too.  I had never seen the word carbineer before and thought it had something to do with military.  After looking it up I see it is a soldier with a rifle (carbine).  The word is not in the 1788 Swedish Dictionary.  Is there a better Swedish Dictionary for me to be using?  Thank you so much for the help!
