Lovisas Family!

Update2017-02-07


I found out int the old church books little about Lovisas Jonas dotter/ Edlunds Family.

Lovisas father was Jonas Nilsson 1795 feb 26 -1892 jul28
and her mother Anna Andersdotter 1807 jun28 -1877sep 1

they vas very poor family lived on av a farmhand famely on a bigger farm. They got a very small house. The house theat the poor lived in vas very bad. It can been so bad it had a earthfloor and not a wood floor.... They got som milk and some rye flour some very salty herring and some potato for the work they did ont the farm . that was theres salary.

well...

Jonas and Anna got many children... probobly some of them died when they was very youg
Johanna 1826
              carl 1832
                       Stina 1835
                                 Anders 1838
                                              Maja 1841
                                                         Anna Kajsa 1844
                                                                            Eva 1847
                                                                                      Gustaf 1850
                                                                                                 Lovisa 1852

When Jonas died in 1892 His wife Lovisa and Gustaf had to moved to the  almhouse.
In the books I can see that Lovisa is Moving to Karlstad 1870 to be a maid but I think she meet some one and got for Norway instead. Beacuse I cant find her in karlstad.
Her Brother lived withe the mother for some time but she died as a pauper in the almhouse.

It vas a very hard time in the middle of the 1850 and to 1900 many of the very poor tried to work for soem money to go over to the land there the streets vas of gold ( Some of the advertising say so in the swedish newspapers)

But If any of them lieved to be married and got children you can have lots of Cousins =) 
Im NOT one of them.. I have to dig more in to the history.
