Swedish ancestor Franz Edler
« on: Sunday 13 March 16 01:33 GMT (UK) »
I am trying to find some details about a Swedish ancestor, Franz Edler. Not sure what parish he was in but have the christening records of his two children and these are for Stockholm. Mother's name does not come up when I search except for the christening records. Any ideas on how I could find marriage details gratefully accepted.

Hi and welcome to RootsChat.

I took a look in the Swedish books and found Frans and his family but no marriage as of yet.

This is from his birth record:
Frans Edvard Edler born 6 Dec 1814 in Skeppsholm Parish Stockholm.
Parents: Boatswain Gustaf Edler and Margaretha Catharina Westling.

They were married in Klara Parish in Stockholm on 4 June 1840.

Thank you for this information, it would seem to tie in nicely with the dates of children, especially Edward who ended up in Australia. Can you tell me where you found this information so that I am better informed for the future.
I am very grateful for your assistance and am quite excited to be looking at perhaps the next generation.

I am reasonably certain that Franz married Maria Louise Stenstrom and they had 2 sons. One seems to have come to Australia and the other, Carl to US. Edward was working on ships in Australia for some of the time and Franz is listed as a sea captain on Edwards death certificate.

Here is the family in Stockholm around 1850:

Frans Edvard Edler - born Stockholm 6 Dec 1814
Maria Lovisa Stenström - born Norrköping 10 Mar 1803

Gustaf Gottfried - born Stockholm 8 Dec 1832 (not Frans' child)
Edvard Emil - born Stockholm 13 Mar 1842
Carl Mauritz - born Stockholm 1 Jan 1847


I use ArkivDigital for these records.

Frans Edvard was recorded as a coopvaerdi styrman - Merchant officer in 1850.

Here is a record from the seaman's database from 1836 as a deckhand.
