Jöns Lind was the vicar of Osby from 1763 (prior to that vicar in Lovön). He passed away from "rödsot", i.e. dysentery. His son-in-law took over as vicar.
According to the the 1781 Osby household record, he was born December 29, but according to Wikidata, he was born December 18. According to his death/burial record, he was born Dec 16 "Efter gamla stilen" (after the old style) i.e. according to the Julian calendar. The confusion is explained by Dec 18 1723 in the Julian calendar being the same as Dec 29 1723 in the Gregorian calendar.
The same household record states that he died in 1786, but burial records have the year as 1785.
