Biography

At the time of Älvsborgs lösen 1613, the household of Anders Larsson contained himself, his wife and two sons of taxable age.[1]

Hustru Elin, the widow of Anders Larsson in Sunnansjö, about 50 years old, died and was buried 12 April 1628.[2] Since Elin was a widow in 1628, and since this is the first year we have Grangärde church records for, we can only conclude that he died somewhat earlier.

Norgärde utgör den nordligaste delen av Sunnansjödelen, nära gränsen till Uvberget. Den förste kända här var Anders Larsson född omkring 1550 Han synes haft någon anknytning till Lars Östensson eftersom han år 1615 ägde 1/6 uti Mats Larssons hemman. Denna Mats Larsson var son till Lars Östensson. Anders Larsson kan varit son eller måg till Lars Östensson Anders Larsson skall varit gift 2 gånger och hans senaste hustru hette Elin Larsdotter född på 1570 talet. Familjen bodd 1577-1585 på Norrbo vilket tyder på att Anders Larsson kom därifrån och att hustru Elin var dotter till Lars Östensson. Anders första hustru synes kommit från Västerbyn.och Norgärde kan ha varit en utbrytning därifrån. Sonen Olof Andersson flyttade till Broby och sonen Hans Andersson blev kvar i Norgärde. [3]


Research note

It is fairly uncertain how many of the attached children are really his children.

RESEARCH NOTE: The "Byalängder" of Kjell Vadfors is a overview of Grangärde for the time before church archives, using district court records and tax rolls. There are however not always clear exact what sources that supports a fact, and sometimes there is none. There has also been some direct mistakes found. But still it is a valuable help, even if you need to find original sources and analyze them as well.

Larsson-4976 and Larsson-386 appear to represent the same person because: Lived in the same place at the same time. Wife is also duplicated.

Since there were no church records in Sweden at this time church records can not be a source for his vital data.

This is a duplicate of Larsson-386, who was imported in 2011 with the same wrong parents as are now attached to Larsson-4976.

This branch has been assembled from two or three different, well-researched, Swedish genealogies, from different parts of the country. The part from Norway seems to stem from research in the 1930s, now considered very fanciful. The patched-together tree occurs on more or less all the big genealogy sites.
