Lindgren Family - Carl Wilhelm Lindgren - Birth Record - page 2

This is a view of Carl Peter Lindgren's birth record from 1872:


It is in the same parish but in a different book. - the birth and baptism book [Födelse-och dopböcker] for 1872.

On Bild [picture or image] 59, the first entry on the page is our Carl Wilhelm Lindgren.


The entry states that he was the 19th child born that year in that parish. He was born on May 2nd, and was baptised on May 6. He was the only child born from this pregnancy, and he is male.


I cannot at this time read the vertical inscription but it might be saying that he was 4 days old when he was baptized.


The next box to the right, names his father - Carl Peter Lindgren - and his father's occupation. Carl Peter was a soldier with a specific regiment. [There are books that lists regiments and soldiers within the Swedish archives.]

His mother's name is Svensdotter Bothilda Charlotta. The number after her name states the couple was married 11 years when Carl Wilhelm was born.

The next column to the right states where the family was living at the time of the birth, and what page the family is listed on in the census/catechism book  for 1871 - 1875 in Dädesjö parish.
