Thoughts on whether I am understanding this correctly.

This is a death and burial register for sweden.

Year 1787, Date: February 2 __________ Fredrich Bjorkholt's little son . (Lars has been inserted). Tor__ (which I assume is the village they live in.

I do not know what the other two columns say???

The problem is also that Lars is not born yet. I am wondering if this is his older brother who died before Lars was born. There is not a death date in a register for Lars. But on his birth date there is a cross and a notation that he died.

Hmm.

    Second column says några timmar = A few hours

    Third column says av okänd barnsjukdom = of unknown children disease

    There are two children named Lars in the family.
    First is Lars b:1786-12-18 d:1787-12-18 in Torsjö, Örsjö, Malmöhus
    Second is Lars b:1787-11-25 in Torsjö, Örsjö, Malmöhus

    However, I believe that the first Lars died in februari 1787.

    Thank you so very much for this help. Pretty confusing. Usually they are so accurate. But I think I agree with your assessment. Thank you again.

    While looking at this I also noticed that Torsjö before 1786 can be found in Ville church records. Looks like the family had a son named Johan Daniel

    Thank you again and for your insights. I found a death for another child, Cathrina, age 9, in 1789 in Orsjo. My plan moving forward is to recheck all the births and deaths for Orsjo, Ville, and Sankt Marie Ystad from 1775 to 1805. Hopefully I can pick up all of their children this way. I still need to find the marriage as well. Thank you again for your assistance.

    Thank you so much for these notes and comments. They have been critical. I somehow missed that a second child, who I also think is Johan Daniel died on 1789-02-15. Thank you again. I am getting there.

    I was able to find the birth of the Jonas born in 1783 after all in Sankt Maria Ystad here:

    Excellent work! I could hardly read the records in Ystad so I gave up!
