Looking for the birth record of Margareta Persson (PID is KZV7-LJ1) and confirmation she is my 4th g
I have some data given to me by a professional genealogist is Sweden years ago but no sources were attached, and another from MyHeritage but they do not agree. One says she was born Sep 1 1743 in Ha, Bollnas, Gavleborg and married 10 Jan 1771 in Bollnas to Eric Ersson.
Another says she was born in 1743 in Lanninge, Bollnas, Gavleborg. No mother named but her father was Pehr Mattsson-Grym.
I couldn't find her in either dates. Tried to find a birth record for her in 1743 and 1745 with a father Per and there wasn't one. There were lots of Margareta's born but only two to a father named Per---one was the minister P. Hannell (and she would have surely taken that last name rather than Persson, The other was born to Per Lind, Sept 7 1745 but she died early and could not have married.
There is a Margeta Persson, born Ha, 1745 living with husband Eric Ersson, born 1745 in Kjallbo. they had living with them a daughter Margeta, born 1772, dotter Caren born 1775, son Per, born 1778, son Olof born 1783, dotter Anna born 1787.
Also the marriage record of January 10, 1771 says Erik Ersson of Guillbo (spelling?) and pigga Margaret Persdotter of Grain (spelling?) Is this the right two people? (for correct spelling of the places see https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0030612_00014#?c=&m=&s=&cv=13&xywh=3192,355,2009,1341)
Which Margeta is my 4th Great-Grandmother?

Marriage date is correct, 10 Jan 1771 in Bollnas. Before marriage Margareta (Märgta/Margta) Persdotter lived in Hå 9, Bollnäs. https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0030538_00050
That household records says that she was born in September 1843 in Hå, Bollnäs.
And in Hå 3 (1768) https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0030538_00043
in Hå 2 (1765-1768) https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0030538_00041
in Hå 3 (1764-1765) https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0030538_00042
in Hå 6 (1760-1764) https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0030538_00047
In birth records there is only 5 children born in September 1743 and only 1 born in Hå to father Per (Pär), but the child is Anna at 1 Sept. My quess is that the Anna is not correct name. But you should try to find the family in household records in year 1734-1759 to see which name is correct Anna or Margta.
