I am trying to find the birth record of a Kerstin Andersdotter b1662 in Döderhult and the Parish book is very difficult to make sense of, it is not in the standard format I am used to.
The record I'm looking at is...
Döderhults kyrkoarkiv, Födelse- och dopböcker, SE/VALA/00065/C/1 (1653-1720)
Which should be the correct record, it just doesn't make any sense to me.
Anyone's help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,Ken Johnson

Hi!
There are no birth records for Döderhult between 1658 and 1683. You would perhaps take a look if there are any Church accounts for Döderhult and 1662. If a person was baptized the parents often payed the Church for bell ringing. Also have in mind that a person who is noted as born in 1662 in a later household examination might have been born another year. The old household examination books was not 100% correct. They could often have the wrong birth year.
