Sweden - Help to find the birth record and parents for Anna Ericsdotter/Anna Ericsdotter Furberg
The records shown that Anna Ericsdotter was born 23 March 1786 in Valbo. I don't see anyone that matches that in that year. Here on some of the records I have for her. I have been attempting to track her backwords.
1816-1817
1814-1815
1812-1813

This records seems to be Anna in her parents' household, 1789 - 1805. Valbo AI 8, 1789 - 1805, page 108. Left page, a third from the bottom. Anna is 6 years old, father Eric Furberg, båtsman, mother Brita, & two siblings. On page 104, it says the year is 1793:

Could this be your person? Born in the county to the west of Gälvesborg, with matching names of parents —- but of course that is never a sure thing =). You could trace this Anna and see if it turns out to be your Anna.

Hope that helps. Warm regards.

That record would make sense as she did take the name of Furberg for about one year. I will do some more checking on that. Thank you.
As for the Anna Ericsdotter, M7VY-VJZ, I don't believe this is my person.
This is the my person, https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/details/93VW-3DV
I will keep her in mind as I continue to track her back. Thanks again.

@G Haux Further evidence suggests Ellen identified the correct family for your Anna Ericsdotter. See below:
1817 Marriage for Anna Ersdotter Furberg - Valbo kyrkoarkiv, Lysnings- och vigselböcker, SE/HLA/1010223/E I/1 (1810-1846) - note that the entry no. 14 says "Kyrkvaktare Dottren Anna…" meaning church warden's daughter
I located Eric Furberg in several records which seem to tell the story.
1816-1819 Household, first family, Valbo kyrkoarkiv, Husförhörslängder, SE/HLA/1010223/A I/11 a (1816-1820)
1809 Marriage, no. 10, Valbo kyrkoarkiv, Födelse- och dopböcker, SE/HLA/1010223/C/3 (1802-1826)
1807 Death of 1st Wife, no. 28, Valbo kyrkoarkiv, Död- och begravningsböcker, SE/HLA/1010223/F/1 (1753-1826)
abt 1784, no. 29, Military Flottans arkiv, Båtsmanskompanier, SE/KrA/0500-0503/0503/036/IV/63 (1730-1834)
Eric Olofsson Furberg was a sailor in the navy. His first wife Brita died in 1807. The record below shows someone new took over as sailor in his area in 1808. He remarried to Karin in 1809 and took on his new profession as church warden. In 1817, his daughter Anna married Olof Persson. In 1819, Eric passed away.
1808 - entry 29, Flottans arkiv, Båtsmanskompanier, SE/KrA/0500-0503/0503/036/IV/63 (1730-1834)
The key connecting details in these records are the surname Furberg and his second career as church warden.
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to locate a clear birth record for Anna.

Thank you so much for your insights. I did track the family and was able to see many records which supported the family but this additional information is very helpful.
I do have a couple of questions.
What does a Church Warden do?
The 1808 record is the name and information to the right the person who took over his position?
Also sorry for the late response to your post. I received the email saying that you had posted but when I went look at the information it wasn't there. I checked back today and found it. Thank you for taking the time to help.

@G Haux I am glad you were able to track the family. I think this article from the Swedish wiki does a good job of explaining the role of Church Warden. - you can right click and translate the page to English.
In the 1808 record, it does appear that the person to the right, Abr. Isaacson, took over his position.

Valbo Al:10a page 33 in Mårtsbo, farm nr 1, Jon Larsson and Anna Ersdotter
Valbo Al:10a page 35 in Mårtsbo, came from page 33, this record is why I strongly believe it's the correct Anna. I think the birth date says 1786-03-23
Edit: I haven't found any birth records of her in Valbo parish1 -
Thank you for connecting me to this information.

Thank you for all the sources. I will compare these to records I have already found. It does look like they are the same records and is helpful to showing I am on the correct path.
