Research Notes

Katarina's name appears in different ways through her life. Before marriage she is called Cajsa, Caisa or Kajsa and after she was married it is Katarina or Catharina. Also her lastname differs, first it is Persdotter, Pehrsdotter, Pehrsdotter Damm and after marriage it is Petersdotter and finally Gustafsson. Also her birthday changed (in the books), after she was married, to 27 Jul 1847, which actually was the day she was baptised.
