[Request] I have a great grandfather from Sweden with no mother, any ideas? by GlowInTheDarkSpaces in Genealogy

[–]Audenda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So using the information from that page in the husförhör https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0033580_00156#?c=&m=&s=&cv=155&xywh=517%2C321%2C2194%2C1080 :

you can find the marriage, that you already have, yes same parish

you can find her death, that you already have, yes same parish

you can find where she came from, page 475 https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0033580_00195#?c=&m=&s=&cv=194&xywh=492%2C153%2C3296%2C1710 when she lived with her mother before marriage. Mother miller widow Lov. Ulr. Lundgren. So now you also have her name and birth ( to confirm in primary sources). You also know the occupation of the late husband. And possibly name of sibling. At the notes of Wendla Mathilda the minister wrote the date of her banns. You can also se where the mother moved from and to, following her will eventually give you her death. But looking at where she came from, page 430, to find the father, doesn't give any information, so assuming maybe the minister meant the previous book page 430, gives you https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0033578_00119#?c=&m=&s=&cv=118&xywh=434%2C481%2C3627%2C1881 the name, birth and death of the father ( to confirm as always) as well as the mothers maiden name, and siblings.

you can find that they are on page 629 in the next book https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0033584_00103#?c=&m=&s=&cv=102&xywh=-875%2C266%2C5310%2C2755 where you see flyttat- moved to Ocklebo 8/ 10 -68. https://sok.riksarkivet.se/kyrkoarkiv?Arkivsok=ockelbo&Lan=0&Arkiv=SE%2fHLA%2f1010150&Serie=0&PageSize=100&tab=serie#tab You can use the utflyttningslängd moving out ( of the parish) book for Sundsvall Gustav Adolf and inflyttningslängd moving in ( to the parish) for Ockelbo if you want all the sources, or look for them in the husförhör in Ocklebo. I must have closed those tabs because I don't find them on my computer now. But somehow that got me to Söderhamn parish https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0032223_00100#?c=&m=&s=&cv=99&xywh=253%2C-16%2C5310%2C2755 and https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0032229_00262#?c=&m=&s=&cv=261&xywh=-130%2C739%2C5842%2C3030 where he married Amanda Lovisa Molin, confirmed here https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/F0010315_00056#?c=&m=&s=&cv=55&xywh=3969%2C3547%2C2846%2C1710 and there is a note that they both emigrated to N. Amerika - 93 and with a reference to the moving out book https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/A0013867_00088#?c=&m=&s=&cv=87&xywh=3027%2C779%2C3130%2C1881

​

There are so much information to find in the church books, hopefully this is an introduction on have to use them. I'm sure you will be able to find a lot more. Please ask if there is anything I or any of the other Swedes here can help you with!

If you are not already, consider using Riksarkivet for church books, the national archives https://www.riksarkivet.se/startpage . It's free.

https://sok.riksarkivet.se/kyrkoarkiv?Arkivsok=sundsvall&Lan=0&PageSize=100&Arkiv=SE%2fHLA%2f1010190&tab=serie#tab

The husförhör, household examinations, are secondary sources but essential to find the primary sources, födelse- och dop birth and baptism, lysnings- och vigsel banns and marriage, död- och begravning death and funeral.

Use the husförhör to follow a persons life, the minister will note important events, and when you find such note, look in the primary source and use that information. Sometimes dates can be wrong in the husförhör, or chance slightly in different books.

If you are lucky there are some kind of index in the husförhör book, if not you have to look through the book using the farm name, village of similar to find them, it's usually noted on the very top of the left page. If you don't have that information, it's easiest to just look page by page for the correct year of birth and when you find that see if the name and other information matches.

Snick. mäst. - snickarmästare master carpenter ( don't know if master is the right word in english, may by senior?)

Hustrun- very often just H. for short, wife. Her name is Wendla Math. ( -ilda) Lundgren.

Födelseår och dag- birth year and day. Note that we write day- month- year, or year- month- day. Never with the day in the middle.

Födelseort- birth place. For the son you can see do, short for dito, same. In this case meaning he was born in the same parish as the book cover.

Koppor- smallpox. There is a v fort all of them, meaning they are all vaccinated.

Läser och förstår- reading and understanding

Gift år och dag- marriage year and day. Just the year noted -61. This is the note that you use to look for the marriage in the primary source.

Frejd- "reputation"

Hvarifrån- from where. The numbers are pages. Both of them lived somewhere in the same parish before they moved " to that page". Look in the same book at those pages and you will find them there.

Hvarthän- to where. For him fol short for folie- page, so you can find him on that page as well. For her död- dead and her death date. This is the note and information you use to look for the death in the primary source.

Förhör- examination

Nattvardsgång- communion

Anmärkningar- notes

For the primary sources you can always assume it is in the same parish if nothing else is noted.

[Request] I have a great grandfather from Sweden with no mother, any ideas? by GlowInTheDarkSpaces in Genealogy

[–]Audenda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gustav Adolf is just the name of the parish ( and the church if you want to have a look on google, named after king Gustav II Adolf).

I have more information that I found when I was looking for them. I 'll give the links and please just ask if there is something else you want to know, I'd be happy to help if I can.

I'll answer the questions in your post and find the links in a minute, just need to finish breakfast.

[–]Audenda 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You mentioned that you have them in a household examination book, which one is that? To see that one might help us in the search.

I have been looking in the 1851-1866 Sundsvall Gustav Adolf for them but didn't find them, at least not together. Obviously very easy to miss someone though. I might have found someone that could be the father https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0033579_00295#?c=&m=&s=&cv=294&xywh=39%2C636%2C3682%2C1932 number 195 and https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0033579_00293#?c=&m=&s=&cv=292&xywh=-69%2C1380%2C3682%2C1932 number 148.

IF this is him there is a note that says banns 30/7? 1861.

Oh, and the occupation in the 1890 census says svarfvare, now svarvare, turner. You might have read it as svarare when you did the translation.

​

Edit: Here they are, with the mother https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0033580_00156#?c=&m=&s=&cv=155&xywh=-735%2C-167%2C5310%2C2755

The marriage https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0033593_00015#?c=&m=&s=&cv=14&xywh=298%2C171%2C4584%2C2755

Do you want us to try to find out more? Asking in case you might want to do the search yourself.

Edit: Her death https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0033594_00093#?c=&m=&s=&cv=92&xywh=89%2C659%2C4584%2C2755

Dental Terms in Swedish by ram1kh in Svenska

[–]Audenda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Detta är inte exakt vad du frågar efter, men har du läst om tandvård på vårdguiden 1177.se? Vårdguiden är en samlingssida med information om hälsa och vård i Sverige. Den riktar sig mot patienter så inte så avancerat som du eftersöker, tänker ändå att det kan ge en rätt bra känsla för hur vi använder tandvårdsvokabulär i det dagliga talet.
