Hello David:

It is quite possible that Carl Axel von REIS is related to my family
lines. However, I have not followed the REIS line forward in time to the
late 1870s. He could be a descendant of Carl Olof REIS (see below).


Charlotta Sophia MANNERSTEDT (1761-????) b. Marstrand, Göteborg och Bohus,
Sweden.
married Olof von REIS (1771-????)

- 1799 Mar 17, Marriage of Charlotta Sophia TORNING, age 35, to Olaus von
REIS, age 28, on 17 Mar 1799 in Marstrand, Göteborg och Bohus län. The
notes state "Wife previously married - Additional data in original
record". Source: Family Search - Vital Records Index for
Sweden. (Note: This is probably Charlotta Sophia MANNERSTEDT, wife of
Olof REIS, who are known to have had 4 children from 1799 onward.)

1. Wilhelmina Sophia REIS (b. 1799 Feb 20, Marstrand, Göteborg och
Bohus län)

2. Carl Olof REIS (b. 1801 Mar 20, Marstrand, Göteborg och Bohus län)

3. Eric Lorentz REIS (1804 Mar 14, Marstrand, Göteborg och Bohus län)

4. Elizabeth Fredrica REIS (1806 Apr 29, Marstrand, Göteborg och Bohus
län)


Olof and Elizabeth's son:
Eric Lorentz REIS (1804-1864) Marstrand.
married Helena Christina ÅKERLUND (1813-????) Almunge, Uppsala län.
They had 4 daughters:

1. Fredrika Christina Wilhelmina REIS (b. 1835 Sep 09, Knivsta,
Uppsala län)
married Carl August Gustaf KYSEL

2. Thekla Mathilda REIS (b. 1837 Apr 30, Alsike, Uppsala län)

3. Carolina Helena Elizabeth REIS (b. 1840 Feb 02, Sollentuna,
Stockholm län)
married Adolf Fredrik LINDQVIST (1841-1907) Brunneby, Östergötland
län)

4. Aqvilina REIS (b. 1843 Nov 20, Danderyd, Stockholm län)

Thanks for your help.
