Which might explain why, in her later years, she uses the patronym Magnidotter. If you remember the thread, you also believed from the ages stated in the moving in and out records that she should have been born in 1775, not 1774 as the records recorded. And in those later years she did state 1775. Shame she did not give a date or place. She is adamant about Kalmar, and yet the database did not contain her. Thanks Bo. >> >> My question is, are Måns and Magnus very similar names? Even >> interchangeable? > Yes, Måns was seen as a "commoner" variant of Magnus. >// Bo Johansson
