Estate Inventory for Brita Catharina Nilsdotter
I have only been able to find this record in ArkivDigital so I only have this link.
"ArkivDigital: Aska häradsrätt (E) FII:10 1786." 1788 Image 91 / Page 177 https://app.arkivdigital.se/volume/v76385?image=91. Accessed 17 Mar. 2022.
I am looking to get this translated. The beginning, inheritances and the end. I am hoping there are clues on the children. I believe two out of the three died. One before her and her shortly after her but I do not know what happen to the third one. The children's names are Lars Johan, Nils Adam and Peter Magnus.

This one is hard to read. Here is what I can decipher:
År 1786 den 7 aug: blef efter begäran Laga Boupteckning förrättad efter miölnaren ____ Lars Johanssons uti Motala ___ ___ k: __ i lifstiden Sedosamma hustru Brita Catharina Nilsdotter som den 3 dennes med döden afgick, hvilken jämte sin __ man efterlemnat _ _ i lifve varande 2en Söner, Lars Johan 3 år och Petter Magnus på ___ dagen gammal härvid? var närvarande Enkemannen med sin h: Fader Johan Nilsson ifrån Björnsund__ å de omyndigas vägnar, Deras moderfader Rusthållaren Nils Adamsson uti Björka tillika med deß andra måg Eric Johansson uti Stora Kulan; När således vederbörande i egen personer tilstädes voro förmanades __ Enkemannen, all egendom under Eds förbindelse upgifva, hvarefter upteckning förtogs i följande ordning.
(approximate) translation:
After request an estate inventory was established on 7 August 1786 after Brita Catharina Nilsdotter, the virtuous wife of the miller Lars Johansson in Motala who died on the 3rd of this month and who left behind together with her husband two living sons, Lars Johan 3 years old and Petter Magnus ___ days. Present were the widower with his father Johan Nilsson from Björnsund [and?] on behalf of the minors their mother's father, "Rusthållaren" Nils Adamsson from Björka as well as the other(?) son-in-law Eric Johansson from Stora Kulan. When thus all concerned were present in person the widower was admonished to specify all property under oath, whereupon a record was made in the following order.

@Ulrich Neitzel Ok. So it seems from this record that Lars Johan remained with his father.
All of these questions and translations are to trying figure out where he went. Here is what I know.
1 July 1787 in Fivelstads Lars married Margareta Samuelsdotter. They stayed living in Herrequarnen, Motala. This is supported by the birth of two children - Samuel Gustaf, 21 March 1788; Lisa Maja, 22 December 1789. On later household records Lisa Maja goes by Johanna. They then move to Ämtsätter, Skoga Rote, Svennevads in 1791. Lars Johan is not with them.
I always thought he died like his brother Peter Magnus who died 28 August 1786. Since being introduced to Probate and tax record I have thought that there might another way to find him.
Anna Greta, Brita Catharina's sister, got married and had a child in 1804. One of the witnesses is Lars Jan Larsson of Björka.
On the tax record for that year, 1804, in Björka is listed Anna - widow, with a Lars and Gabriel. Gabriel is Anna's son. It is possible that the Lars mentioned is the grandson.
Also in 1793 it seems he is listed with Nils Adamsson. It looks like Lars was written in later.
That is as far as I have gotten. I am hoping to find a connection to the Lars Johan Björkman of the same birth date and place that show up here.
I am pretty certain they are the same person but with the name change I want to be sure. Any suggestions or tips you can give me that might help me put this together?
