Thank you Bo, Yes it was the wrong reference (Olof was alone and not with his family) Thank you for the correction. Here are the birthdates and references for the other children Kierstin 30 April 1751 Södra Ving (1750-1791) image 8/page 7 Rangilla (age 34 in 1788 Boupteckning) Britta 21 April 1757 Södra Ving (1750-1791) image17/page 25 Pehr 1 Dec 1761 Södra Ving (1750-1791) image 23/page 37 It appears that the family has moved between the birth of Kiersten and Britta. Is it possible that Rangilla was born with a different name and by 1788 she was using the name Rangilla? So I have the correct birth month for Kierstin? Thanks for all your help.

Normalized form is Rangela, variants: Ragnil, Ragnila, Rangel, etc. http://www.genealogi.se/sa-stavar-du-namnet/164-namn/928-kvinnonamn#R If she is not in the Södra Ving birth records, perhaps the family lived somewhere else for a while. Or an error in record-keeping... > > I was able to find the birth dates for the other children that are > listed in the Boupteckning. But this daughter seems to be a mystery. --- Was it the same address for the births before and after Rangela? // Bo Johansson ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
