SNGF -- Who Is Your Ancestor #50?

Calling all Genea-Musings Fans: 

It's Saturday Night again - 

Time for some more Genealogy Fun!!

Our assignment from Randy Seaver of Genea-Musings is to:

1)  Who is Ancestor #50 in your Ahnentafel list?  What were his birth date and place, his parents, death date and place, spouse's name, marriage date and place, and how many children they had, and which of his children do you descend from?  

Thank you to Lisa S. Gorrell for this week's SNGF challenge topic.

Here's mine:
Today, I’m focusing on ancestor number 50 in my husband’s family, which is Lars Michäelsson. He was born 6 November 1795 in Ã…senhöga, Jönköping län, Sweden to Michael Larsson and Martha Mänsdotter. He was baptized on 15 November 1795.

He married Cajsa Svensdotter on 8 February 1795 in Åsenhöga. They lived at Ingarp Södegârd where he was a farmer. They had nine children.

Lars died on 9 August 1873 and his wife, Casja died on 12 September 1874.

My husband descends from their daughter, Marta Larsdotter who married Jonas Nilsson on 15 April 1865 in Åsenhöga. Four of their children emigrated to the United States, and the oldest, Nils Malkom, is his great-grandfather.

  1. Don't you love those Swedish records? Of course, there are some missing, but when they exist, they can't be topped!

    1. Yeah, it's my version of having NE ancestors, instead of southern.
