EIGHTH GENERATION


132. Anders Jö (230) was born on 7 Dec 1723 in Sweden. He died about 1800 in Sweden. I have looked for a death record for Anders, but could not find one. Relationship to son Lars is inferred from the household accounts. Anders and Ingebor lived in Veddige at the Oluf Bengtsgå, in Bjö. The farm was apparently also called nordgå as the latter name appears in a few records pertaining to the family. He was married to Ingebor Larsdoter about 1750. There is quite a gap between the birth of Lars and that of his next older sibling Anders. Unfortunately, since Veddige birth records only go back to 1770, we have no way of checking for children who died in infancy.

133. Ingebor Larsdoter (231) was born in 1729 in Sweden. She died on 2 Sep 1798 in Veddige, Halland, Sweden. (232) The death record has her place of death as Nordgå, her cause of death as old age, and her age at death as 69. I am not sure where (or what) Nordgå is, but the rest seems to fit. Relationship to son Lars is inferred from the household accounts. Children were:

child66 i. Lars Andersson.
child ii. Anders Andersson was born on 14 Apr 1761 in Sweden. The household accounts of 1785-1787 and those of 1788-1790 indicate Anders went to sea.
child iii. Kerstin Andersdoter was born on 1 May 1764 in Sweden. She died on 27 Apr 1847 in Bjö, Veddige, Halland, Sweden. (233) Her age at death was 82 years, 11 months, 6 days. The death record indicates her age at death as 82 years, 7 months, 6 days. She was buried on 2 May 1847 in Veddige, Halland, Sweden. Early household accounts have her name as 'Kersti.'
child iv. Jö Andersson was born on 3 Jul 1767 in Sweden. After the death of his parents, Jö continued to live at the Olof Bengtsgå with his sister Kerstin and her family. Sometime between 1811 and 1813 he left for Frilleså, a parish near Veddige.
child v. Anna Andersdoter was born on 14 Apr 1772 in Sweden. Sometime between 1806 and 1808 Anna and her small family moved to Frilleså, a parish near Veddige.
