Help with Household Record
The following record is from Alvesta Parish (https://app.arkivdigital.se/volume/v18213?image=237&page=240®ister_collection=28).
At the top of the page it seems the place is Alfvestads Stations.
The person of interest, Adolf Emil Fredriksson, is listed as a Kakelugnsmakare, which correlates with other records showing his occupation. However, the index for these household records (1876-1880) identifies Kakelugnsmakare as a place! It is not a place I find on the Family Search parish list of place names or anywhere else. Is it an error by the indexers?
He is identified as the owner (eg). Is he the owner of the property at the address No 44?
During 1876-1880 Adolf moves a few times within Alvesta, and at the top of each page it says Alfvestads Stations. Two of the records identify the no. 44 so did he really move or are they just writing new entries for the same place?

Unfortunately I don't have access to ArkivDigital at the moment, so I don't know if I can entirely answer your question... But I did find an interesting life sketch for your ancestor on signaturer.se that may be interesting to check out, if you haven't already.

Otherwise, do you have an image of the index for those household records? That's really interesting that they would list Kakelugnsmakare as a location...

Thank you so much for pointing me to the signaturer.se sketch!!
I went back to take an image of the index, and realized at the bottom of the page before the entry there was a new subtitle- so it looks like they were indexing occupations after they indexed places.
However, another entry (see below) from the same book makes it look like perhaps it's a place and an occupation... I'm was confused as to if I had the right place, but the life sketch helps to clarify!
