Jim, I am totally uninformed about this area of research and I would definitely appreciate learning more. And a very happy first Sunday of Advent.

Using doppvittnen and mantalsl�ngder I was able to dig up some ancestors for her outside the parish her people came from. Naturally, she was then interested in mantalsl�ngder and wanted to know more about them, so I put together some brief notes for her. Would it be of any interest to anyone if I posted these notes on this list? It's always seemed to me that mantalsl�ngder are an underused source.
