Help finding Marten Abrahamsson of Enkullen in Grangarde Parish

I'm researching Marten Abrahamsson of Enkullen. I've found quite a bit of information about his family, but I would like to fill some holes. Can you help me with these.

 

First, here's what I've found:

 

I have his death record: https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0012669_00163#?c=&m=&s=&cv=162&xywh=34,-217,8553,5712. (right side 2/3 down)

 

His father is listed on this page, which Ancestry says is part of the birth records, Abraham Wellamsson of Hallsjon. https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0012668_00045#?c=&m=&s=&cv=44&xywh=-311%2C-138%2C4125%2C2755 (about half way down the page).

 

I have birth records of three children. I'm looking for a Jan (Johan) Martensson who was born in 1711 (possibly Sept 29).

 

I'm also looking for his family's household record -- I can't find them listed among the Enkullen families. The births of his sons/daughter are listed as Enkullen.

 

His parent's family is listed here: https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0012616_00060#?c=&m=&s=&cv=59&xywh=-687%2C-139%2C4877%2C2755 on the right side at the top. Enkullen families are typically listed after Hallsjon.

 

His marriage to Elisabeth Jonsdotter is listed here: https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0012669_00114#?c=&m=&s=&cv=113&xywh=329%2C-124%2C4125%2C2755 (top right about 1/4 of the way down).

 

I would love to find his birth, his household records and the birth of Jan/Johan. Thoughts?

 

Thanks!

    How do you know Johan born 1711 belongs to this family if you dont have household records for this family nor do you have Johan's birth record?

    I don't. There are a number of Ancestry Family Trees that have him listed as a son of Marten. What I've been doing is going through the information and confirming it. The difficulty is I'm missing the pieces that would confirm who he belongs to. I have Jan Martensson's family records as a parent. I have Marten Abrahamsson's records as a child, but I don't have Jan's child records nor Marten's records as a parent. Jan's household record as a parent list him as being born on Sept. 29, 1711 in Enkullen. I've gone to the Grangarde Parish records and the Enkullen records and from those years and I have been unable to find either a household record or a birth record. I'm looking for some help in finding those records, hoping I have missed something. I hope that explains it further. Thank you for the clarifying question.
