Please excuse if this question has previously been asked: When it is a Marriage Bann, what specific month/day can be recorded for the marriage? Specifically, I refer to my great-great grandfather's Marriage Bann of 1831, Genline GID#489.18.22100, Anders Persson to Greta Andersdotter, Jan. 30/Feb. 6/Feb. 13, 1831. In the far right-hand column, under the birth years of the couple (1805 and 1810), there is faint wording to the effect: "argd. d. 25 May 1831. of ???". The first abbreviation in this quote may not be correct, but this is what it looks like to me, not being familiar with Swedish language. I wonder if this is a date when the marriage bann was recorded, perhaps, and therefore making it their "official" marriage date? Can someone please advise me? Thank you so much in advance.

Interesting! I really can't distinguish the writing of her father's name--but it's NOT what I thought, obviously. Are you able to? Thank you so much for your time and efforts. Marguerite

Birthdata of Gustafva Fredrika from the churchbook.

Andreas Gustav Engstrom was Gustava Engstrom's father. I think his birthdate was 1822, but don't know where. He married Carolina Sofia Larsson who was born in 1824. They are my great-great grandparents. Perhaps it's Gavle also?
Thank you for accepting this challenge. Marguerite

You have to give me more information about this Andreas. The name isn't enough. Dates and where he is born, please if you have,

Thank you Annelie, for this information. Any chance of learning what Andreas Engstrom's profession was? I'm trying to give a bit more information in my genealogy than just names and dates. Perhaps this is unrealistic this far back.

This is a P.S. to my message--- my father was the only one who emigrated to US. He was born in 1904 and came to US in 1927.

Surnames I'm searching include Svensson, Jarlberg, Gyberg, Engstrom, Nilsson, Andersdotter, Venerus, and Larsson . All these surnames are relatives born pre-1900--leading up to my father, Lars Herbert Svensson.

Hello, I am looking for information on a Jan Olsson born in Sweden. Somehow his son's name became Anders Gustav Berggren or Berggreen. Anders eventually moved to Norway. Jan Olsson was married to "Stina" Andersdotter born 10/1/1801 in Haatuna. Any information is appreciated.
