Birth year and place for Nilla Månsdotter
Hello, please see attached picture of 30 January 1757 marriage record from Össjö, Kristianstad, Sweden. I thought I had found all of Måns Olsson and Sissela Olafsdotter's children but I had never seen one for Nilla. But everything else in the record (including approx. age at marriage) implies her parents are my ancestors. Can someone read the record and see if it says how old Nilla was when she got married where she was born? I saw the number 23 and thought maybe that's how old she was, but I can't find a birth record for her in Össjö from the years 1733-1735.

Yes, it does say Nilla was 23 years old.
Aa far as her birth record, where would Nilla fit within the family? Oldest, youngest, etc.? Could the family have been living in a different place when she was born?
Additionally, are you sure that these are the same parents? With patronymics, it can be pretty hard to make sure you're not getting different people confused. Does the place of residence (as in the place within Össjö) match up with what you already know about the parents?
Good luck!
