Translation of Probate record for Lars Johan Björkman
I kept getting stuck trying to backwards so I gave up and went forward. I was able to find his death and probate record. On this record it appears to mention his half brothers Johan and Carl Zetterlund and half sisters. He had a son from his first marriage but it does not seem to mention him. I need help with the translation.

On behalf of the said heirs, the bookkeeper S. Fagerström was present and the widow specified the estate with assets and debts in the following order.

Lars Johan Larsson did indeed have two half brothers by the names of Johan and Carl Zetterlund. I have not seen any record of any half sisters so I find that a little strange. He does have 3 sisters though. Yet, he had only been married for two years to Anna Brita so family relationships may have been misunderstood.
Thank you for your translation!
