Her birth record here records her parents as Per Andersson and Elisabeth Andersdotter: https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0041695_00036#?c=&m=&s=&cv=35&xywh=2843%2C558%2C2939%2C1578 . According to this record the mother is between that ages of 25-30 so she (the mother) would have been born between 1778 and 1783 which agrees with the household record below.
This is the family in the Household records after the birth of Mattias in 1814: https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0041664_00057#?c=&m=&s=&cv=56&xywh=524%2C54%2C2902%2C1434 .
Many of the children of the first couple are born in Voxtorp, Jonkoping, Sweden and I suspect that they do not belong to Britta's parents. The places are too far apart.

@Norm Baker This is getting me closer! Thank you! Looking at her sister MHPR-QYV gives me more questions about their mother again and father. Are their parents duplicates?

Wow, this is a real mess. I don't believe that either Lisa Swensson Andersson nor Lisa Swensen belong to this family. All of the birth and household records that I have looked at name the mother as Elisabeth Andersdotter-nowhere is Elisabeth Swensson Andersdotter/Andersson nor Lisa Swensen mentioned. It appears that someone has merged families that should not have been merged. All of the children born in Waxtorp (Voxtorp), Jonköping, Sweden should be removed and only the children born in Morlanda, Göteborg och Bohus, Sweden should be remain in the family.
I would also remove Samuel (GMJH-47S) because, although his parents have similar names, and he was born in Morlanda parish, he was born on a different farm-Kihla rather that than Stocken so he doesn't belong to this family.

@Norm Baker These were some of my thoughts too. I love having this FSC to get other's very helpful incites and sources. Thank you so much!😁
By the way, how did you get the ID# of Samuel to appear as a link above? That was very helpful.

When on a person's page you click on the PID you are given a choice to "Copy ID", just click on that and then "Paste" in whatever message you are writing and it is pasted as a link.

@Norm Baker Will you take a look at the Per Andersson and Elizabeth Andersdotter GW8F-FHS family now and see if I've attached them correctly? (I did the copy paste thing for her PID but it doesn't look like a link. is it?)
I don't want to take children away from their correct parents just to make my tree look fuller! I want truth. You mentioned "all the sources" in the above conversations. Do I have all the sources attached that you've found?
Also, are Elizabeth's parents correct? Thanks😁

The children look like they belong to the correct parents now. However, I haven't looked at all the birth records yet-there may be some more like Samuel in the family. Since we have birthdates for them all, it shouldn't be hard to find out! They should all be available in this book: https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0041695_00001#?c=&m=&s=&cv=&xywh=-395%2C-138%2C4295%2C2755 . If you click on the "+" on the line marked "Morlanda" in left hand column then click on the line marked "Födelse och dop" it will open up to a list of years. Select the year you want to view and it will open up to the beginning of that year. Then find the date that is reported for the birth of the child you are checking on and see if the farm name, Stocken, is there along with the correct parents. If all the information matches, then the child is in the correct family!
Give that a try and let me know if you have any problems. You can then add the image and link in the "Sources" to prove that it is correct. I like doing it this way, because often the farm isn't mentioned in the indexed version of the records and that is often important to know. Let me know how it goes.
As for the PID link, no, it did not come through as a link-not sure why not.
In addition, "all the sources" included the one birth record and the household record that I linked in a previous answer and one other birth record, but I forget which child it was. I think it was the Mattias born in 1825 because I wanted to see if the family was still living at Stocken farm.
I will look to see if Elizabeth's parents are correct and answer that soon.

Okay, I checked the parents and they are correct.
Here is Elizabeth Andersdotter's birth record: https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0041694_00026#?c=&m=&s=&cv=25&xywh=449%2C-265%2C3477%2C1867
And this is her (with an incorrect birth year-1781 instead of 1783) in the household records: https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0041659_00076#?c=&m=&s=&cv=75&xywh=3343%2C152%2C2941%2C1545 . Her parents do not have a birth year in the household record and I was unable to find them in any other household records.
