In Resmo's husförhörsbok 1840-1843, very last page, the alteration of the last digit of the birth year was made by a line from up till down through the 8, and the 7 is written above the 8, a little bit right of the 8. The 7 ends in the above entry concerning Beate Andersson. The place of birth gives some thinking, as the Glömminge is not too clearly visible. But the next birth-place is also Glömminge. Virtually staring some minutes at the word seems to provide a ...ryd, the G in the front also leaves something for fantasy. But at last, Glömminge seems to fit best (also we expect Glömminge, that is the problem with reading entries in a biased manner). May be one has to think of Glimminge or Glemminge too.

Last listed child is Ragnar Augustinus, born 1895-09-19. Herman's second name is Fritiof. Katrina Matilda's name is Ljungfelt.

Hej,
 
the two types of s are a sharply (german stimmlos) spoken one (as in sport) and a softly (german stimmhaft) spoken one (spoken as the z in zero). The -son part of swedish names requires the hard s-form. To complicate things, the hard s is never written at the end of words, then replaced by the soft s. So Hans, who ends with a sharply spoken s is written with a soft s. A word combining such a word with an ending soft s with another word does not alter the rule for the sharply spoken s written as a soft one. So in swedish patronymics always both s-forms are used.
 
The letter ß is not a ss, but a sz. Some years ago, ß was in some cases replaced by ss, to make explanations more complicated. So german daß is now dass. But Maß remained Maß. When you don't have the letter ß on your typewriter, rules of orthography tell to use ss instead, notwithstanding, that ß is a sz in older scripture. As ß is just a lowercase-letter, and no uppercase-letter exists for it, in uppercase it is always SS.

I already sent you Lisa's parents' and grandparents' data on 26.04.2009 (Samuel August Svensson All-in-one.pdf).

Hello,
 
it would be necessary to bear in mind, that Åbenrå/Apenrade from ca. 1864 to 1920 was, as part of the duchy Schleswig, prussian. In 1919/1920 the northern part of the duchy Schleswig was ceded to Denmark after a plebiscite. So information about people living in Apenrade at the fin de siècle does not fit in the danish standards of administration (census/folketælling, civil status, military service). Hence local information is divided. Local archives in Denmark still contain the local documents (civil status), governmental documents may be are to be found in german archives (documents about citizenship, conscription, immigration).
 
The information given is quite meager. Even the surname Lebginski does not seem to be likely (and seems more polish than russian, but part of Poland was russian before WW I), as the 5 hits in Google are results of your own research. It would be necessary to have the handwritten documents you have read by an expert for german handwriting (S?tterlin is a writing introduced in schools in germany in 1915; it was created by Ludwig S?tterlin; so a document written between 1900 and 1918 by an adult civil servant can't be in S?tterlin) and german civil status documents, to get the correct name and the real sense of the document.
 
Quite puzzling are your remarks about notices on the birth certificate. When was the certificate made? Who did the notice, and when? In german birth certificates for illegitimate children between 1876 and ca. 1935 the preprinted text is filled with the dates of mother and child. If a fatherhood was accepted by a man, or by a subsequent marriage, there will be an official marginal note at the left margin of the document telling about this fact (from ca. 1935 on there would be a new birth certificate which tells about father and mother, without giving hints about an illegitimate birth).
 
I hazard a guess that Helene Theresia and Johan Svensson married in Kiel in 1918. So why so late? Why having children in 1901 and 1903 and marrying 1918? Well, marrying in germany as a foreign citizen required (and requires) some documents proving the marital status as being eligible for marriage. For not so wealthy people this could mean quite high expenses for travelling to Sweden and fetching an Utflyttningsattest from the parish of the last domicile in Sweden.
 
Your father was in 1918 a 17 year old german boy with a german mother. By marrying the mother, Johan Svensson could instantaneously change the boy's citizenship from german to swedish. So the boy was no more endangered by conscription ath the end of WW I. Quite a good reason for the boy's parents to marry.
 
I have quite an idea who the father was, if the aforementioned assumptions are right. According to EMIBAS-database a certain Johan August Svensson, born 1870-07-12 in Asarum parish, Blekinge province, emigrated 1918-03-06 to Kiel, Schleswig-Holstein, Tyskland. This Johan August Svensson left Asarum parish before 1890 without telling the authorities that he emigrated and where he was going (1886-05-16, 13 days after his mother's dead, he received an arbets-betyg, a permit, which was necessary for working in another parish. After that he was absent until 1918). Thence he was registered as obefintlig (absent) at the censuses 1890 and 1900 and until his return in 1918. So this Johan came back after 28 years abroad and immediately left again in March 1918, amidst a world war. This journey was not made without a good reason and intended to get his records complete, and this was necessary for a marriage. Keeping in mind the time and circumstances of the journey, there will not have been too many Johan Svenssons going to Kiel in March 1918.
 
I would suggest to ask for a copy of the marriage-record in Kiel (Landeshauptstadt Kiel, Standesamt, Postfach 1152, 24099 Kiel, Germany)
 
http://www.kiel.de/Aemter_01_bis_20/12/Amtsverzeichnis_12/Standesamt_Allgemeine_ und_Rechnungsangelegenheiten_Urkundenausfertigungen.htm#Allgemeine
 
For a thorough reading of german documents, you may send me a pdf, jpg or bmp-file of the referring document.
 
 
Good luck

So there also is Per Erik Persson Söderfeldt's side:
 
His siblings were:
 
Lars Johan Persson, born 1835-06-24, missing since 1880 (probably emigrated).
Augusta Persdotter, born 1839-07-01, still living 1900 in Ljusnarsberg.
Per Fredrik Persson, born 1844-03-12, emigrated 1888-04-30 to Nordamerika.
Lisa Sofia Stenkvist Persdotter, born 1848-05-14, emigrated 1879-04-26 to Nordamerika being a widow.
Carl August Söderfält, born 1853-01-06, missing since December 1880 (probably emigrated).
Albertina Söderfält Persdotter, born 1856-09-03, emigrated 1879-04-26 to Nordamerika.
 
Augusta Persdotter had two sons:
 
Erik August Eriksson, born 1868-06-19, emigrated 1887-04-12 to Nordamerika.
 
Johan August Eriksson, born 1866-03-17 (in Västerås), died 1949-15-01 (Ljusnarsberg), married with Lovisa Ulrika Karlsson, 1864 - 1935-01-05.
Their children:
Gärda Augusta Eriksson, born Hörk parish 1894-12-01, died Ljusnarsberg parish 1971-01-06. Not married.
Johan Axel Eriksson Berg, born Hörk parish 1896-02-06, died Grängesberg parish 1974-10-25, married in 1920 with Anna Linnéa Hellkvist, 1901-04-23 to 1966-06-09.
Lovisa Matilda Eriksson, born 1900-05-21 Ljusnarsberg parish, died Ljusnarsberg parish 1989-01-02. Not married.
 
If Gärda Augusta and Lovisa Matilda had no children out of wedlock, the only of your friend's nearest relatives left in Sweden would be descendants of Johan Axel Eriksson Berg, which I cannot trace with the databases and churchbooks open to the public.
 
Of course there would be also descendants of the siblings of Per Erik's and Stina Lisa's parents.

Household examinations 1864 - 1873 and 1873 - 1880 concerning the Strandell family can be found at Genline GID 156.36.13300, 156.36.13600, 156.41.2600 and 156.41.2800.

Well, that is what's already stated in Hokanson-All-in-one.pdf, posted 2009-09-11. Håkan had 12 children, 7 with Elna and 5 with Maria. Marriage with Maria 1821-11-25 and marriage with Elna 1805-05-30. First child of Håkan and Maria is Elna, born 1822-07-24. All events in Högseröd parish.

Håkan Nilsson's parents seem to be Nils Larsson and Pernilla. Nils Larsson appears first time 1776 in Högseröd taxlists as Nr. 1 Wästraby with wife and children. This lasts until 1798. 1799 as Nr. 1 Wästraby appears Håkan Nilsson and the widow Pernilla. 1816 appear Håkan Nilsson and mod. Pernilla, i. e. his mother Pernilla.
 
So Nils Larsson died 1798/1799. Pernilla died 1819-03-22 in Wästraby, Högseröd parish. Unfortunately the entry at GID 1269.5.32400 is almost unreadable. From the taxlists can be derived, that Pernilla was born around 1750-1755.

Your Håkan Nilsson is at 1269.5.38200. The Håkan at 1269.5.37900 is a Håkan Olsson died 1866.

Brita Cajsa Persdotter was born 25/02 1809 as Brita Catharina in Gamle Herrgården, Söderbärke parish, Kopparbergs län. Baptized 26/02/1809. Parents: Unga Per Olsson (The young Per Olsson) and Anna Nilsdotter, the latter 38 years old at the birth (GID 152.27.51600). Brita Cajsa's parents and siblings and a grandfather : GID 152.33.26700.
 
Anders Andersson was born 21/2 1818 in Oppsveten?, Söderbärke parish. Baptized 23/02/1818. Parents: U.(nga) Anders Andersson and Stina Ersdotter, the latter 31 years old at the birth (GID 152.27.59900). Anders' parents and siblings: GID 152.34.72100.
 
Anders and Brita Cajsa married 22/02/1848 at Söderbärke church (GID 152.59.58400).

Carin Emilia was born 03/02 1895 in Baggbron, Skinnskattebergs parish, as daughter of Bryggaren (Brewer) Per Andersson and Ingeborg Källman (GID 100019.3.11800).
 
Per Andersson and Ingeborg Källman married 14/07 1894 in Västanfors parish (GID 100019.4.35000).
 
Per Andersson died 30/06 1896 in Baggbron, Skinnskatteberg parish (GID 100019.9.14900). Cause of death: nervfeber. Per Andersson was born 16/05 1854 in Västanfors parish. His first family: GID 2356.75.58800
 
Erik Gustaf Wiksten married Ingeborg Källman 31/12 1899 in Västanfors parish (GID 2361.52.800).
 
Ingeborg Källman's first husband, Johan Lindström, born 23/03 1855 in Norberg parish, emigrated to Northern America 9/4 1891.

So Jöns Abrahamsson Orädd died or was afskedad between 1790 and 1803.
 
In August 1800 a daughter of Båtsm. Orädds och H. Botil was still-born in Björkenäs (GID 1769.5.93300).
 
In January 1796 the same (GID 1769.5.92000)
 
In August 1797 birth of daughter Hanna (GID 1769.5.92500)

Hej Lotta,
 
then it is proved, that Pernilla Johnsdotter is the right one. According to Sveriges befolkning 1890 in Mörrum n:o 7 lived sjöman August Johansson, born 1857 in Mörrum, Pernilla Johansson born 1847 in Mörrum (Sven Fernlund pointed out that her birth-place and the birth-date were changed) with children Johan, born Mörrum 1873, Johanna Jenny, born Elleholm 1878 and Adolf, born Mörrum 1881.
 
Mvh
Arne

Hej igen,
 
after taking into account Maj-Britt Sundin's marvellous book Pernilla's father, Sven Sonesson, as you find him in her birth entry in Jämshögs books, is in fact BM Sven Sonesson Wind, född 1802-06-23 i Gammalstorp, död 1878-05-06 i Boa. Son till BM Sone Persson Liten i Gammalstorp. Pernilla's mother is Hanna Svensdotter född 1816-10-02 i Boa, död 1878-10-23 i Boa(marriage 1843-09-15).
 
Nils Svensson Wind, the above mentioned witness, is Pernilla's brother.
 
So 1850-10-19 seems to be right.

Hej Annika.
 
I don't think I am family of Anna Mathilda Karlsdotter so far. I just looked up Anna Mathilda in Blekinges befolkning (del 1), and there she was mentioned with her son Karl Gothard, whom I also looked up in the SCB-utdrag.
 
In 1893 there just was a lysning with Karl Johan Karlsson, but no marriage (vigsel). In the SCB utdrag are only the marriages, so the lysning of 1893 is not mentioned there. Divorce 1896 seems to have been possible and may be necessary in this state of an incomplete marriage with children (whose state we just know as oäkta from the records, but also could be trolovningsbarn). 1898 Karl Johan married another woman (who also already had two oäkta children).

Two Bökemåla and a Carl - genealogy has many complications in store for us! So Karna Nilsdotter in Bökemåla / Asarum is a false friend, and the right Carin Nilsdotter in Bökemåla / Åryd in fact was registered as a boy.

Hej,
 
Håkan Carlsson From is a relative of mine, so I have some information about Elin's children (which I always wonder about, if the were children of Håkan Carlsson From too).
 
 
Elin Åkesdotter's (* Ronneby förs. 20.06.1842)illegitimate children were:
 
Abraham,    * Ronneby förs. 27.07.1863,
Mathilda,   * Ronneby förs. 23.01.1866,  
            + Ronneby förs. 02.11.1878
Emilie,     * Ronneby förs. 31.07.1869,
Carl Peter, * Ronneby förs. 17.09.1873,      + Ronneby förs. 27.04.1874
Carl Peter, * Ronneby förs. 27.11.1875,      + Ronneby förs. 10.05.1877
Carl Peter, * Ronneby förs. 04.06.1878,      + Ronneby förs. 28.08.1878
Mathilda,   * Ronneby förs. 03.02.1880,  
            + after 1890
Carl Peter, * Ronneby förs. 09.03.1883,  
            + after 1890
Hanna,      * Ronneby förs. 20.06.1886,
            + after 1890
 
After 1890 means, that I have not yet looked for them in the 1900 folkräkning.
 
All can be found at http://www.ddss.nu/ , but only by typing in the mother's dates, as a father is not mentioned at any baptism, but since 1874 Elin lives at Håkan Carlsson From's place(s).
 
Håkan was born in Tararp, Bräkne-Hoby's församling 1833-08-01. 1871 dömd till 6 månader fängelse, so may be he was unmarriable for Elin?

Hello,
 
there is a Rickard Henry Hagman, born 1908-12-23 (died 1981-12-03). He is mentioned in Karlskrona stadsförsamlings födelse- och dopbok (SVAR bildid. A0030770_00397) and Malmö St. Pauli födelse- och dopbok (SVAR bildid. A0030772_01060). His parents are mentioned in both entries as okänd, but the birth-date of the mother is mentioned as 1881-08-01. But: there is an anteckning in Malmö: Anmäldes af Styrman Rickard Hagman från Stockholm; modren nékom i Karlskrona; avis om födelse och dop etc. etc.
 
According Sveriges dödbok a Lydia Emilia Hagman f. Blom died 1970-09-01 in Norrköpings Sankt Johannes. She was born 1881-08-01 (ingen uppgift om födelseort)and she was divorced 1938-04-19. May be from Rickard Hagman?
 
According Sveriges befolkning 1900 that Lydia Emilia was born in Tärna församling, Västerbottens län.
 
According to Begravda i Sverige (That new database is worth every cent) the following happened to the divorced styrman and sjökapten:

Brilliant - so he was born as Simon Frederik Johansson in Hutingsryd, Hvenas församling, and died 1962-10 in New York, according to Social Security Index. Marriage would have taken place about 1922, 1918 he was naturalized after his military service, and he arrived in the US with S. S. Mauretania in 1908-09.
 
Solving things together seems to be a successful way of genealogy.

Hej, looking into the US-Census for 1920, Adelia is mentioned as a single servant. At US-Census 1930 she lived in New York's Bronx, district 425, page 55, with her husband Simon Johnson (then 39 years old) and her nephews Axel Landergren and Elland Andersson. Under Age at the first marriage it says 31 for the husband and 34 for herself, so marriage would be 1923.
 
Given that Simon Johnson immigrated to the USA in 1908 and served in the military in WW I, the marriage can also have taken place in the USA.
 
Simon may be Simon Frederik Natanael Johansson, born 1891-11-05 in Gävle. Adelia's husband is sometimes referred to as Fredrik.
 
The nephew Axel Landergren is Axel Fredrik Edgar Landergren, born 1905-05-19 in Karlshamn.
 
Adelia was born 1889-06-19.

Seems to be the Kjerstin born 1799-06-13 as daughter of Ola Wässmann and Wallborg Nilsdotter. Wallborg Nilsdotter is in GID 1759.34.15300 the widow Wahlborg Nordström.

Anne-Lee,
 
there seems to be no proof for Gustaf being the son of a special Melin in Stoby church records. I just attached him to Sven (seems to be), which you had named as living in Stoby. As a matter of fact, the note about the death or burial in Stoby parish indicates, that Gustaf usually lived somewhere else, as it is stated that he was fr. St..... förs:, i. e. from another parish than Stoby.
 
My attachment seems to be right, as in Norra Sandbys parish Gustaf's birth 1798-12-23 can be found (GID 1682.18.59900). Father: Sven Melin, Brittedal.
 
At this moment I have not yet concentrated on the intricacies of Melin lineage, as Ann-Margreth's main aim should be to discover, who is father of Johannes Johansson, who sometimes was called Melin. Johan Melin would be a quite attractive candidate, but church-books in all parishes concerned are quite incomplete for the important intervals. We don't yet know, what happened in Jämshög between 1798 and 1805. Marriage? Fatherhood? Bouppteckning from 1829 will be a key to decide things.

Hej,
 
precious information, indeed.
 
According to Lister härad's bouppteckningsregister, Joh. Melin had three wives: Eleonora Melin, Sissa Nilsdotter and Karna Nilsdotter.
 
Elna Svensdotter f.1772, Åkarp, died 1823-12-19 in Osby.
Sissa Nilsdotter f. 1798, Gammalstorp, died 1826 in Osby
Karin Nilsdotter f. 1803, Augerum, outlived her husband
 
That would make Elna / Elonora his first wife, marriage should have been well before Johan Magnus' birth in November 1813. The age of Eleonora and Johan would make it possible, that they also could be parents to Johannes Johansson Melin. But Fri från äktenskapsförbindelse at 1807 would not accord to a marriage with Eleonora at the turn of the century.
 
Another possibility would be a fourth marriage, Johan being a widower in 1806/1807. But his position as a widower should have been stated in the flyttattest.
 
Another possibility would be an illegitimate birth of Johannes Johansson Melin.
 
And yet another possibility: Johannes as the son of another Johan, Johannes taking Melin as a fantasy-surname in his later years.
 
None of these possibilities can be ruled out, as at the respective parishes documents for the important years are not preserved. So the bouppteckning for Johan Melin from 1829 is the only way to get some answers about Johannes' lineage.
 
In Stoby parish there is a death entry at 1478.12.68100, stating that Pappers-Mästaren Melins Son Nom. Gustaf fr. (illegible place) 9 år gamal died (December 1807). Seems to have been a Gustaf Svensson Melin.

Hej,
 
what I totally forgot: there is a bouppteckning after Johan Melin from 1829 (Bouppteckningar Lister härad, Volume 16, page 1233) where his heirs will be listed. May be that clears up, if Johannes Johansson Melin is a son of him.
 
You also could find out, if Johan Melin lived in Jämshög in 1803 by controlling the respective mantalslängder.

Hej,
 
it seems to be necessary to control the whole husförhörsbok for Aringsås (1813 - 1828) and Jämshög (1816 - 1822) to possibly find Johannes together with his parents. 1821 he moved from Aringsås to Öja. It may also be a good measure to control the baptisms of his 11 children. Some siblings or his parents may be were godfathers.
 
The children can be obtained at the following husförhörs-pages:
 
1812 - 1829: 864.6.58800
1816 - 1825: 819.6.32000
1826 - 1830: 819.7.48400, 819.7.38000
1831 - 1835: 819.8.54800, 819.8.56400
1836 - 1841: 819.9.73500, 819.9.76900
1841 - 1846: 819.10.95200, 858.11.29700
1846 - 1851: 858.12.62000
1851 - 1856: 819.13.42800
1856 - 1861: 819.14.70500

Hej,
 
Ö is Öljehult, that means the part of the old Hoby parish, that became Öljehult parish later on (1856).
 
H is Hoby, the former name of Bräkne-Hoby (until 1886).

Hej,
 
hans föräldrar bodde i Hoby (No. 4). His father was a school-teacher dying in 1843 just before Carl Johan's birth.

Hej,
 
Ö is Öljehult, that time belonging to Bräkne-Hoby, but already in separate books. So look at 1485.3.55900 to find out, where Nils came from.
 
Inga Ingemansdotter came 1843-11-08 from Hällaryd socken (Utflyttade från Hällaryd No. 47/1843; 1756.2.48800).
 
Birth of Inga: 1485.25.34200
Birth of Nils: 1485.25.40500
 
Marriage: 1848-10-06 in Hoby
 
How to find the marriage:
 
1. Index for 1835 - 1858: 1485.29.28600, Nils mentioned for 1848-10-06
2. Marriage: 1485.29.7700
