Swedish to English Translation Help
« on: Saturday 25 February 23 21:46 GMT (UK) »
I am interested in the family of Rasmus Jorgensen on this Swedish Household Examination Record. I have all the dates figured out, but am wondering if it can be determined who they are living with, and what the notes on the far right indicate. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

It's quite hard to make out all the text. I think he is living on a farm owned by Aron Persson.
The text to the right of Rasmus states that he was visiting with his children first in Onsby then to unknown place.

Added from above.....
although it says that Aron is a tailor. You may need to look back a few pages to see more info.

Can you send the source please. I can take a peek for you to see who owns the farm.

I found the book this page is from. They were living at Fälhult Nyhem a "Backstuga".
