General questions / Summaries of population reports

« skrivet: 2020-05-09, 05:28 »

Greetings,

I am trying to locate where I found the attached item.  I thought I found it in SVAR but could not locate it.  I checked ArkivDigital but did not locate it either.  Can someone remind me where I came across these?

This one is for my Grandfather Nils Alfred Göransson leaving Torpa Parish, Kronobergs Län early 1900's.  I thought I had written the location where I found the document in December 2018, but cannot find anything.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Swedish language / Deaths of Eric Mattson and Parents

« skrivet: 2018-06-09, 19:27 »

I noticed that three of my ancestors died with what looks to be from a common reason and within a very short time.  It does not look like it was from a fever.

Mats Ericsson born - 1730, died - 19 November 1770.
Mats' Mother, Marit Jonsdotter, born 1690, died - 19 November 1770 (same day as Mats).
Mats' Father, Eric Matsson, born - 1693/4, died - 26 December 1770 (a month later).

All the above were living in Wästerud at the time when the died.

I cannot read the reasoning for their death.

Any help would be appreciated.

Please see attached.

Swedish language / Eric Mattson Christening Record

« skrivet: 2018-06-09, 05:18 »

Looking to verify the Christening of Eric Matsson son of Mats Pålsson and Karin Ersdotter.  Eric was born in Wästerud, Brattfors Parish, Värmlands Län.

I am trying to verify the following record.
I can make out some information such as:
Location - Brattfors,
Christening - 3 December,
Matts Pålsson - father.


I think I see other names such as Matts Ersson and Marit Jönsdotter.  I am just not sure.

Any help on reading the record would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Swedish language / Translation help from ArkivDigital Page

« skrivet: 2018-04-02, 05:02 »

I was wondering if I could get some help for the attached pictures below.  I am able to understand most household records in the latter 1800's but not this early.  I am unable to tell the year but know it is between 1742 and 1800.  There are other pages where Bodel is found and I hope any help here will help me translate others.

Any help would be appreciated.

It is from Degeberga Parish, Kristianstads Lån.

Bodel Erlandsson (my 4th Greatgrandfather) is married to Karna Andersdotter.
Bodel was born in 1729 in Slätteberga, Degeberga Parish where he is still living married to Karna.

Can someone assist me as to what else it says related to Bodel?  I don't understand the other notations also listed on these two pages.

Thanks.

General questions / Notation on Church Record help

« skrivet: 2018-03-06, 05:27 »

I was wondering if someone could help in this mystery.

On the attached image (Lidhult-G-BI-2-1895-1942-Image-430-Page-35) some of my ancestors (Göran, wife and two childeren) are moving from Torpa Parish to Lidhult Parish.  They are moving in 1913.

It list information about Otto Sigfrid Göransson (born 5 may 1889) under column 10 as No 71 14/1910.  This is under the heading: " Särskilda anteckningar, såsom om afsända och mottagna avisbref m m."  I translate this meaning: "Special notes, such as sent and received newspaper letters, etc.".

Otto actually left to N. America in April of 1913 of that year.

Not sure what the No 71 14/1910 means.

Any help would be appreciated.

How would I find this letter if this is what it is to find out what it may be?  Can this be found in the ArkivDigital online records?

General questions / Source/Citation

« skrivet: 2018-02-27, 05:23 »

For years I was using Genline and citing them as a Source in my Family Tree Files.  I am now using ArkivDigital.

I believe that Genline is no longer available.  Am I correct?

How is the best way to handle this situation?  Do I completely remove Genline and replace with ArkivDigital?

Example:
Current:
Genline - Swedish Church Records On Line, GID #[100011.30.66000, [Kristianstad] _ scb Kristianstad, : 489, Marriage , Deaths, 1874-1874, 0/0, Image 127 of 129].

Proposed:
ArkivDigital - Swedish Records On Line, Hörröd-L-CI-6-1862-1894-Image-113-Page-108.

Please advise.

Thanks.

I have recently returned to searching my Swedish Family History but have found the site to be a little different now.

Please help in trying post an image in to the body of the post.

By the way, I am member M24669 on DISBYT. 

My Ancestors start with Nils Alfred Göransson (1884-1931) > Göran Persson (1848-1918> Per Andersson (1792-1881)> Anders Bodelsson (1761-1832)>  Bodel Erlandsson (1729-1817)> Erland Bodelsson (1709-1751)> Bodel Nilsson (1675-1718)> ?.

Most of my ancestors on my FF side come from Kronoberg or Skåne.
My FM side is in the Värmland area.

Thanks in advance on how to post an image.
