Thank you.

Parents? Eric Bengtsson and Anna Pehrsdotter? Or are they grandparents? Kind of old (in their 50's) in 1806 as they were both born in 1747. What do you think?

This link to household exam may help

One more link. The household exams were done yearly at this point. This link shows Anna f. 1806 now on the survey. Still trying to figure out her status. Anna Persdotter (f. 1747) died in 1803. This seems weird!

Sorry, I should have gone through all this before posting my question. Later in that volume of Kågeröd household exams is the 1807 survey. It shows Eric with another Anna Persdotter (b. 1768) with Anna (b. 1806). So it seems he remarried another woman by the same name??

To answer your first two posts, Anna's parents are Eric Bengtsson and Anna Persdotter. Anna (the child) was held during the baptism by Jöns Persson's wife who lived in Storegårdshus. The witnesses/godparents were Jöns Ericson in Gödstorp, Lars Anderson in Benarp, maids Susse Nilsdotter and Pernilla Persdotter.
In your 3rd post, the Anna Persdotter (b. 1 January 1847) is the 1st wife of Eric Bengtsson, and, if she died in 1803, she is obviously not the mother of Anna born 17 Sept 1806. I did find birth records for both Anna Persdotters, so there were definitely 2 of them:
First Anna Persdotter's birth (right page, 2nd entry): https://app.arkivdigital.se/volume/v110885a?image=630. Birthdate is 1 January 1747. Father is Pähr Anderson; mother is not named.
Second Anna Persdotter's birth (right page, 20 January christening): https://app.arkivdigital.se/volume/v110885a?image=1650. Birthdate is 15 January 1768) Parents are Pär Nelsson and Anna Nelsdotter.
In your 4th post, the word "dotr" appears before Anna's name, so there isn't any question that Eric Bengtsson and Anna Persdotter are the parents. Eric is about 49 when Anna is born, but the mother, Anna Persdotter is about 21 years younger than him, so she is only about 38 years old.
Fifth post: widower Eric Bengtsson and maid Anna Persdotter were married 21 December 1805. Their marriage is recorded here (right page, 1st entry): https://app.arkivdigital.se/volume/v110887?image=100.

Thank you very much, Norm! As I worked through the churchbook I saw how the examinations were divided by year and saw that Anna b. 1747 had died. What a coincidence that Eric married another woman by the same name. I appreciate the efforts you went through to look at all my links, as well as locating the marriage.
One more question - what is the word after Jons Persson and the word before Jons Ericsson?
Tack,
Judy

In Anna's birth record of 17 Sept. 1806 there are several words between Jöns Persson and Jöns Ericsson. They are: (Jöns Perssons) hustru i Storegårdshus. Faddrar: (Jöns Ericsson)..... That translates to: (Jöns Persson's) wife in Storegårdhus. Godparents/witnesses: (Jöns Ericsson).....
