I research my great-grandfather Johannes Larsson (b. 27 Oct 1820 in Västra Blekan, Sundals-Ryr); his father Lars Jonasson (b. betw. 1780-82 in Ödsköld, Älvsborg); mother Anna Jonsdotter (b. May 1796 in Sundals-Ryr); and siblings.

MvH,

Hi Yvonne,

Thank you for that image of the 1819-24 Husförhörslängd for V. Blekan, Sundals-Ryr. That is indeed my great-grandfather, his parents and 2 of his 7 siblings. I have already done quite a lot of research in the Swedish church records and am now waiting for Genline to publish the more recent records for Älvsborg.

Wishing you a happy new year,
Richard Johnson
