Erik Ersson

  Research Notes:

1. Date of Death: 13 Dec 1851. is uncertain. Erik Ersson is recorded the Östmark parish household records volume AI:14 (1846-1850), but I haven't found them recorded in the next volume - Fäbacken is not in the registered for vol AI:15, 1851-1855. Their son Olof is recorded at Hiramberg (page 422).

However, there seems to have been a paish boundary change, starting in 1851. Most of the Fäbacken farms changed to Lekvattnet parish. And in the first household record volume for Lekvattnet parish (AI:1, 1851-1855), Erik Ersson is recorded on page 29 and it is here that it is recorded that he died on 13 Dec 1851. The death/burial volume for this time frame is a series of notes with some births but from 1870 (Hvb1) but I can't find pages for burials.

A geni.com FT records Erik Ersson's death as 13 Dec 1851, but he is NOT recorded in the Östmark death/burial volume. A few MyHeritage FTs record the same date of death as above and some say he died in Sunnemo parish, Värmlands (abt 100 kms south east of Östmark. However, he is not recorded in Sunnemo parish death/burial volume.
