Sue - It stands "Stjelpet". Today the spelling is Stjälpet.

Well, I need some help again. I've been making real good progress for the most part reading the Swedish Church records so far, but as I get into the older and older records it is increasingly difficult to decipher the handwriting. Here's my dilemma --
If you're on Genline, the GID is 511.46.74300, for year 1811, Marriage #2, Nils Jansson and Cajsa Carlsdotter, 16 April 1811.
If you're not on Genline, here's the Book Title: Landsarkivet Göteberg, Värmland län, Nordmark, Vigde Döde 1775-1831, E:1, Year 1811, marriage #2, for Nils Jansson and Cajsa Carlsdotter, 16 April 1811.
I cannot read the village names listed for the couple. Please someone help? Thank you. ~ Sue

Annelie-
Thank you for finding the occupation of Ander Gustaf.

Great! Thank you very much for that clarification, Annelie. So far I've located just one Husförhörslängd with the couple & their family and it did not have their marriage date on it, but I shall keep looking. You have been a big help today. Thank you again. ~ Sue

Yes, the marriage date is 25th March. Sometimes it also stands in the Husförhörslängd of the following years when the couple was married.

Oh... so do I understand that the marriage bann is different somehow than the marriage itself? and that that date in the rightmost column -- 25 March 1831 -- IS the true date of the marriage ceremony?? I just would like to be precise which date to put into the chart. Thank you so much!

Sue - It different from each län/parish how the books are written. This way I haven't seen before. Usually the marriage date are more important but here it's the other way around. The banns are more important as they stands first,
30th Jan, 6th Feb and 13th Feb. The marriage date you see in the right column - 25th March. Anders is born 1805 and Greta b 1810.

Hi, Annelie ~ I hope I get this right: Landsarkivet I Göteborg Church Records, Värmlands Län, Gustav Adolf, Vigde 1829-1877, E:1. (This is from the cover of the book filmed.) I don't know what the page number would be, but it's Year 1931, #1. Thank you for your help! ~ Sue

Marguerite - Anders Gustaf's occupation is "Extra Postillon". It means he was a extra (~ something like substitute) mailman.

Sue - Would you please write the churchbooks number not Genlines. I have ArkivDigital and they number the books after the old way. Have no idea what to look by the Genline system in ArkivDigital.
