Brita Michelsdotter

  Research Notes:

Färila houshold records, summary:


Brita Michelsdotter (b 1708) lived at a few places within Färila parish. Her three children were all born at Kårboleskog according to the Färila birth records (C:1 - see research notes).

Brita Michelsdotter (b 1708) is recorded living with her mother (Märta Larsdotter, b 1677) at Kårböleskog until around 1730 or 1731 when she is next recorded married to Staffan Michelsson (AI:2, image 132; household record, Kårböle husfolk.), along with 2 children, (children, Margta Staffansdotter b. May 1731 [appears she moved to Ljusdal, at least for awhile]; Michel Staffansson, [no birth year noted; appears he moved to Hogdal for awhile]. Brita Michelsdotter's husband, Staffan Michelsson, is recorded as död, Batsman in Hog, 1749.

Then in the next household record book (AI:3) she is first recorded on the bottom of page 133 (on the second side) (Kårböle husfolk) where it is recorded she was born in May 1708; she then moves (page 135, second side, mid-page) to Kårböleskog with her two children and she is again recorded with her mother under Kårböleskog husfolk.

Her daughter Margeta is recorded on page 133 (AI:3, second side), but a birth is not recorded; however, on the right column, it is noted that she was born at Kårböleskog - there is a reference to the year 1752., but I'm not clear what this means. Then on page 135 ( about mid-page and above Kårböle husfolk), Marg Staffansdotter future husband (Anders Jonsson, b 1732) and future father in law is recorded - here we have Jon Pålson, b. 1701 (and before his given name is the word Ängra, ??) and Jon's wife is recorded as Marta Andersdotter born 1691 but died 1750 [ not in death records ].

In the next book (A:4, 1764-1765), Brita Michelsdotter is recorded on page 112b at Kårböle husfolk with her daughter Marg Staffansdtr (b 1731) married to Anders Jonsson (b 20 Nov 1732) and Brita Michelsdotter is noted as mother in law to Anders Jonsson. Anders Jonsson's father is recorded as Jon Pålsson (b Mar 1701). Daughter Margaret is married to Anders Jonsson (b 1732) and they have 2 children, Märtha Andersdotter (b 1759) and son Jon(as) Andersson (1761) [another son, Anders was born in 1763, but he died.]

Then in the household record book, AI:5a (and 5b), she is first recorded at Kårböleskog (page 159) and then she moved to Ängra (page 157), likely living with her daughter Marg Staffsdotter (b. 1731) and her husband Anders Jonsson (born 1732) and family. She is recorded as 'Enka Brita Michelsdotter'. And in the household record book (AI:6a, page 175) she is again with her daughters family and then he is recorded as died in 1791.

Brita Michelsdotter's death record (F:1, image 127 no 8) only records her name and that she died at Ängra. This record does not record her parents.









[16 May 2018 ]

NOTE: in the Färila Church records, there are at least two people named Staffan Michelsson, and it is likely that the first one was married to Michel Michelsson's daugther, Brita Michelsdotter born 1708. BUT, I do not know who the father is of this "Staffan Michelsson" (born abt 1700, died 1749). I have found records of two children (Margeta Staffsdotter, the third child died); there doesn't seem to be an explanation of the 6 yr gap between the birth of the children's of Michel Staffansson and Brita Staffansdotter.




(1) Staffan Michelsson

AI:2, 1736-1755, image 132, Kårböle husfolk, (mid-page)
mid page, Staffan Michelsson (död) - on right side, Båtsman in Hög (parish) in 1749 ; death: bet 1749 and 1757
[ I have not found a death/burial record in Hög, Hogdal/Ytterhogdal or Färila parish, and looked at years 1749-1752; death records for Hög, C:1, start on image 145, year 1729]
wife, Brita Michelsdotter [b 1708] and [daughter of Michel Michelsson (1672-1724) from Kårböleskog ] on right side some comments ... Hodal ... ???|
then, dotter, Marg Staffansdotter (b. May 1731) .... right column, i Lusdal ???
then, son, Michel Staffansson - most likely; fr 1808 death record [ F:2 im 9 no 10 ] - born 11 Feb 1735 on Kårböleskog parents, Staffan Michelsson and Brita Michelsdtr; married 1763 to Karin Olsdotter (b. 1744 d. 1805); six children, 1 son and 5 dotter; 1 son and 2 dotter are dead; Enkling 1805 ]
- one the next line, there is the name Marg. Pürsdotter, but I'm not sure why she is grouped with the above; prior to her name, likely is enken? G., meaning married

- in the earlier book (AI:1, page 67, farm Rÿgen) there is the name Staffan Michelsson as a drång, but not sure if this is the same person

(1) b.

- the above Staffan Michelsson is likely the person recorded in the family tree at "Genealogy Shortcuts website" [Släktforskningssajten Genvägar; link, https://genvagar.nu/show.asp?PersonId=203731 ]

- Staffan Michelsson born 1700 died 1750 ; but according the Husförhör book (see above) he died in Hög in 1749

** note that the above website follows some ancestors of son of Staffan Michelsson (1700-1750), Michel Staffanson (b 1735 d 1808) through he mother's line - Brita Michelsdotter, and then to her father Michel Michelsson, etc. Also has some descendant data on one child of Michel Staffansson (b 1735)
- see estate inventory for Michel Staffansson's (b 1735) wife, Karin Olofsdotter b 1744 and died 1805- noted under Ljusdal parish records; Ljusdals tingslags häradsrätt (X) FII:4 1791-1804 Image 1594 / Page 611

The Färila Birth records, vol C:1, 1680-1743, - mother is not recorded in these entries
image 77 on 2nd side 4th entry, "2 May 1731" Margeta, Staffan Michelsson dotter, in Kårboleskog
image 79 on 1st side 4th from bottom, "11 Feb 1735", Michel, Staffan Michelsson son, in Kårboleskog [Lars Michelsson from
Storbyn as a witness]
image 81 on 1st side 2nd fr bottom, "29 Jan 1741", Brita, Staffan Michelsson dotter, in Kårboleskog

this likely means that Staffan Michelsson and Brita Michelsdotter were living at Kårboleskog as late as 1741

(1) d.

There is another family tree that records Staffan Michelsson (b 1700) and married to Brita Michelsdotter (b 1708)
- this notes that this Staffan Michelsson's father was Michel Michelsson (b 1675 at Kårböleskog; and married to Margreta Larsdotter, b. 1675) and Michel Michelsson's father was Michel Michelsson b. 1640 at Kårböleskog and died at Kårböleskog and the this Michel Michelsson's (b 1640) father was Michel Michelsson born in Finland
- this family tree, follows decendants of daughter Marg Staffansdotter (b 1731) at Kårböleskog, Kårböle [12 Aug 2018; haven't researched this family tree information on Marg Staffansdotter's decendants]

(2) Staffan Michelsson born 1660, died 1727 -- this is NOT the same person as above

(2). b. THIS person is likely NOT a relation , but ............???



NOTE ;; See my document, Staffan Michelsson, b 1660 and died 1727
(re geni.com, link, https://www.geni.com/people/Staffan-Michelsson/6000000000642694086 )

There is another person - He was Staffan Michelsson on Ryggskog or Rÿs ..... and he had a son Michel (Staffansson) born 22 Apr 1691 [C1, page 64, 1st side, 2nd from bottom]. On DISBYT, there is a person record for Staffan Michelsson, born 1660 and died 3 Dec 1727, died age 67 at Risarv [death records, EI:1, page 49, 2nd side, 6th from bottom ]
[Jan Engström data, but this doesn't record his father].

geni.com data records Staffan Michelsson's (b 1660) father as Michel Michelsson born about 1630 ?

Färila church books

(2) c. AI:1, 1721-1736, page 69, Risarv husfolk

Michel Staffansson and wife Brita Persdotter (Pürrsdtr) (his father would have to be Staffan efternamn ..... next line)

see births, C:1, page 56 Rÿsarven (likely Risarv)

however, on page 56 (Risarven], starting with the top of the page, Lars Michelsson and wife Karin (?) Johansdotter
and 3 children, Karin born 1690 and Agnes born 1694 and Lars born 1695

then, Staffan Michelsson and Margrtha Larsdotter,
and 5 children: Malin b 1699, Pehr ? b 1702, Olof b 1706, ?? b 1710, and last Olof b 1713


But then after Olof born 1713 and to the left side is Michel Staffansson [it is hard to make out the efternamn and a first glance it seems to be Staffansson but that efternamn requires 11 letters and on page 56, it seems that there are only about 7-8 letters in the efternamn. and below him is only a couple of letters faded, first letter is and then just below this is the birth record starting with
Staffan b 1721, Purr 1724 and Lars 1727 ---------------- see AI:2 below


---, C:1, births, page 59, 2nd side; place name is hard to make out, but Loos [ likely Losskog ]
is Michel Staffansson and Margreta Larsdotter;
- the oldest son, Staffan Michelsson, born 1688; then Michel Michelsson born 1690, then a gap to 1714 to birth of son, Pürr Michelsson born 26 Mar 1714


then, ? children of Michel Staffansson and Brita Persdotter (Pürrsdtr) [see next book below, AI:2]
son, Pürr Michelsson born Feb 1724
son, Lars Michelsson born Feb 1727
- then the next three lines do not seem to be from the same family
then on the last line, Marg Michelsdotter born Jul 1730

* The Kårböleskog taxation records, records that for 1697 at Risarv.. is Michel Mattson [?] and Staffan Michelsson (likely 1660-1727) and in 1700, 1715, 1720 Staffan Michelsson and Pürr Jonsson ;; and in 1729, Michel Staffansson and Jonn Pürsson



NOTE: ( A:1, p 67 ... Staffan Michelsson, as a Drang on farm Rÿgen - I don't know who this is???; the son, Staffan born 1688 = Staffan the son of Michel Staffansson from births, C:1, page 59 from Loos)
