Jöns Johansson

  Research Notes:

1. Jöns Johansson (b 1728) and Helja Nilsdotter (b 1724) family data

- I have used Tommy Jönsson (id # 45016; Disbyt) updated 18 Feb 2016 to record births and deaths for their family;
NOTE that Tommy's database often includes the children and the children's marriage and some of those children;
but, I have only their names, births and deaths. I have not recorded all marriages and those descendants. BUT I have reviewed some of the parish records, and it is likely the year of birth/death from Tommy Jönsson's data is accurate.

Tommy Jönsson records birth as Östmark, but this is the locality/village and given the time frame it was a part of Fryksände parish. Tommy notes that the baptism was in Fryksände parish. Around 1765 a chapel was established at the place name Östmark and about 1801 it became a separate parish

I have recorded the births of Jöns Johansson (b 1728) and Helja Nilsdotter (b 1724) children as Fryksände parish.

also: check the following website: likely the day and month of birth is recorded; link, Fryksände födelsebok, 1707-1765

2. Disbyt

Also: Disbyt (beta) Thomas Stigmarker, id 44186, update 4 Jul 2017 [search Johan Olofsson, Östmark]
- records Johan Andersson's (died 1700) son Olof Johannson's death at 1735, with son Johan Olofsson (1697-1761) married to Kerstin Halstensdotter and a son Jöns Johansson 1727-1784 and father to "our Karin Jonsdotter, b 1763" and married to Sven Nilsson born 1766 with added information on Sven Nilsson's son Nils Svensson, 1795-1878

DISBYT: Tommy Jönsson (id # 45106) updated 16 Apr 2019 [beta or .. search, Olof Johansson, Fryksände]
- but doesn't extend to "our" Karin Jonsdotter, b 1763; only to Jöns Johansson 1727-1784 daughter Kerstin b 1749 and to a son Olof Jönsson b 1757
- no link to Anders Jönsson Hotakka (b bet 1590-1600)


3. One tree on familysearch (id KG1S-R62) with last information added 20 Dec 2018 by "BoyerCheryl"

for Jöns Johansson has his his wife and children; Helja's parents are named but NOT their date of death


3. Another family researcher database: http://www.kenalexis.se/pd1aa3199.html ;; Kenneth Alexis Bergman
[search from start: Olofsson Hotakka, Johan (b 1697)]

- question: records Johan Olofsson's (b 1697) father as Olof Johansson Hotakka b 1654 and that Olof Johansson's (b 1654) father was either: Johan Andersson Hotakka Stenman OR Anders Andersson Hotakka b 1638

Kenneth Bergman also records a son of Jön Johansson, was Olof Jönsson b 6 Dec 1767 and died 1812
BUT: Östmark births (CI:1), does not record this birth --- this must be a typo error - and is actually refering to Olof born 1757. The household records (below) do not record a son b 1767 nor a son named Jöns b 1769
