Note: #NI898.
Marriage Husband Petter Jonsson Cavat. Wife Casja Ingrid Johansdotter. Marriage 14 Oct 1753. Prästgård, Gärdserum, Kalmar, Sweden. [1] Child: Jonas Pettersson Svanström. Child: Annika Pettersdotter.
Note NI898At the time of her 1753 marriage she was a maid («i»pigan«/i») at the Gärdserum rectory («i»Prästegården«/i»). Her husband was captured by the Prussians in 1759, and deleted from the military rolls in 1764. Military widows were a concern, because the «i»rusthållare«i» was required to support them. Many military widows married their husband's successor in the soldier's coft, but she did not. She probably remarried, perhaps to Måns Larsson, of Västervik.
