September 15, 2004
    Tried to find Brita's parents. I had found a couple of Brita Matsdotter, with templework done. They were born 1711 in Mockfjärd. I went to the birth records and found the ones I had seen in IGI. One was from Heden, the other one from Västanbäcken.

I tried searching Clerical Surveys, but I cannot find Brita as a child, because the Surveys start 1738, and by then she was married.
I looked in Borgsheden (1738) to see if I could find a family with the father named Mats and that could possibly fit to be the father of Brita.
In Borgsheden 1738-57, we have two possibilites:
P.396 #4 Mats Persson born 1699 and Marit Persdotter born 1705. NEITHER ONE IS OLD ENOUGH TO BE BRITAS PARENTS.

The other couple:
p. 398 #8 Matts Olsson born 1690 and Anna Matsdotter dead 1743. Checking the death record for Anna shows that she was born 1691.
    This couple really could be her parents.
    I searched the birthrecords again for Brita 1709-1715 trying to match any baby Brita with a father Matts Olsson in Borgsheden or possibly in Färmsnäs, since that is where he came from. Still nothing. There is several entries in 1711 that are completely blank. All ink has disappeared.

So I cannot prove that these are the correct parents, but I am assuming they are.
