Biography

Adela Andersdotter was born probably around 1680 and likely in the Stora Herrestad area.

She marries Oluf Larsson about 1705 probably in Stora Herrestad.

She is the mother of Anders Olufsson Herrstedt and likely 6 other children, Ellna, Lars, Salomon, Johan, Anna and Ingar.

If she indeed is mother of the youngest child Ingar, then she did not pass away before 1728.

There is an Adela Andersdotter who married about one and a half years after the death of Oluf Larsson in the same parish on 6 Sep 1730, a man called Lars Pärsson.^[1]

Research notes

Stora Herrestad parish birth, death and marriage records starts early 1700's, so she has not been able to be found anywhere but in her child's (children's) birth records, then with very little information about her. She might be able to located in the death records as she must have passed after the birth of her son Anders born 1719, but if she's in there it will be hard to prove it to be the right Adela Andersdotter, even though Adela is not the most common name at the time. - by Antonia Reuvers

She is found in the records in 1730, about one and a half year after her husband Oluf Larsson dies she marries Lars Pärsson.
