Question about who to seal a child to: Sweden

Hi,

I have found the birth records of a child, Ebba Charlotta .https://www.ancestry.com/discoveryui-content/view/270637:2262?tid=&pid=&queryId=d2e0a908-545c-4441-be3c-cabe9b9cc221&_phsrc=NZE3196&_phstart=successSource

Later does this Sweden Household Examination Books show Ebba Charlotta as adopted to her grandparents??? Who do I have her sealed to?

I would seal her to her real parents. But you can seal her to both.

In her birth record as witness we have Hans Nilsson and his wife Eva Nilsson which I believe are her foster parents. We can also see that her parents Olof Nilsson & Anna Charlotta Larsson was married. In the record you linked we can see Anna Charlottas wedding date, in her wedding record we get the birth date of Olof Nilsson. Lastly in this record we can see that Ebba Charlotta was a foster child.

The correct way is to connect her as daughter to Olof Nilsson & Anna Charlotta Larsson since they are her real parents

Olof Nilssons birth record is here and his family is here and Anna Charlottas birth record is here

Anna Charlotta moved with her daughter in 1895 to here and gave birth to another daughter Anna Sofia

I think I edited my previous comment too many times but if it shows up again you have everything you need to dig deeper. This record is the first after Ebba Charlotta was sent away by her mother. She was not adopted by her grand parents but she was their foster child
