I have found numerous records for Anna Nilsdotter, my great great great grandmother born in Sweden i
The attached record immediately above is her birth on 26 July 1793 to Nils Jonasson and Elena Hansdotter in the parish of Lindome. Does this record indicate anything about her parents' location or age? Not sure how to track them down without any additional information.
The other attached record is for Anna Nilsdotter in the Lindome Household Records for 1851-1860, along with her son Niklas. Their records are crossed out and I can't read the notations to figure out why. I think Niklas left Lindomby No.3 to move to Anderstorp Fabrik in 1853? Also, Niklas was born out of wedlock and there has never been a record of his father or a surname until this record that reads "Lindstrom". Is it possible he just took that last name based on the parish name? There are several Lindstroms in the parish, including the parish clerk.
Thank you!!

Hi #[JCrowley2 JCrowley2] ,
The birth entry reads: on 26 July 1793 was born, on 27 July was christened the inhyses (which has multiple meanings). I think the context here is a farmer who lives on land that owned by someone else. It’s land that is not included in the regular production or taxation of the land-owning farm. Anyway.. it continues, Nils Jonasson and Elena Hansdotters child (abbreviated as b. for barn) at Berje (a variant form on Berget in the household examination index), Anna. The godparents (or witnesses) are Sven Andersson of the same place (Latin Ibm. for Ibidem), Anders Andersson and Sven Ericsson of Lindome and Mrs. Petronella Jonasdotter of Berja (a possible sister of Nils), Brita Jönsdotter of the same place, Anna Ericsdotter of Lind. (-ome). Then there is the note Died 1794. Although one wonders if the Death 1794 belongs to the entry for Anna or the one below. I would read this as belonging to Anna which is problematic to your conclusion. This would seem to be the birth of a different Anna Nilsdotter who died in 1794. Unfortunately, the pastor of this parish was not keeping a separate death and burial record (or it got lost). Gratefully, he did add death years to the birth entries.
The entry and comments from the household examination records have been crossed out but they read: Inh. (abbreviated for inhyses which in this context means she was living at this place without paying rent). Anna Nilsdr. (17)93 abs. (abbreviated for absens = absent from household examination) (18)54, fattighjon means a very poor person. Next row, son born out of wedlock Niclas Lindström (18)27 engaged with Johanna Andersdotter of fabriken 13 May (18)53. To the right in the moving -out column it has an abbreviation for fabr. (-ik) (18)53.
Then under his name wife Johanna Andersdotter. As far as the said to be father. Anna had Niclas in 1827 which was still a crime but women were not prosecuted for their 1st or 2nd offence after 1810. If Niclas was her first, then she won’t be listed in the court minutes unless she prosecuted for a failed promise to marry or to seek child support. Still, it would be worth looking in the court minutes of the fall session of Fjäre häradsrätt to see if she was at court for this matter. The volume is not available in ArkivDigital but it is through FamilySearch at https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QHV-P3NR-NSMY?mode=g&cat=369359. Look for the Sakörelse längd at the end of the cases for the fall session (höst ting).
