The Olsson family / Olsson familjen

Karl Johan Olsso’s father was Olof Jansson (Dec 27 – 1843 – Oct 20 1916), and his mother was Ingeborg Olsdotter from Ekshärad (May 26 1865 – ?). They have 5 children together.

Ingeborg must have passed away sometime before 1887 because Olof Jansson remarries June 23 1887. He marries Britta Persdotter and they have two sons together.

Karl Johan Olssons far var Olof Jansson (27.12.1843 – 20.10.1916) og hans mor het Ingeborg Olsdotter og var fra Ekshärad (26.5.1865 – ?). De får fem barn sammen.

Ingeborg må ha dødd en gang før 1887, fordi hennes mann Olof Jansson gifter seg på nytt med Britta Persdotter 23. juni 1887. Olof og Britta får to sønner sammen.

The family live at a farm called Häbble or Pusshagen. Both names appear in the records. So far it has not been possible to establish where this farm was situated.

Familien bodde på en gård/plats kallt Häbble eller Pusshagen. Begge navnene er nevnt i ulike kilder. Det har så langt ikke vært mulig å avdekke hvor dette er.
