Hello Håkan:
I am very pleased to hear that there is information available on my family,
and I welcome your assistance.
Eric (or Erik) MANNERSTEDT and Elizabeth KAMP were my 5th great-grandparents.
- 1760 Apr 13, marriage of Eric MANNERSTEDT and Elizabeth KAMP in
Marstrand, Göteborg och Bohus län, Sweden. Source: Family-Search Vital
Records Index on-line for Sweden. Batch No. M419591.
I understand that they had the following children in Marstrand:
1. Catharina Elizabeth MANNERSTEDT, born January 13, 1761.
2. Charlotta Sophia MANNERSTEDT, born December 7, 1761.
3. Eric Lorentz MANNERSTEDT, born April 5, 1763.
4. Gustava MANNERSTEDT, born March 25, 1764.
5. Lovisa MANNERSTEDT, born March 29, 1765.
6. Samuel MANNERSTEDT, born March 25, 1766.
7. Anna Gretha MANNERSTEDT, born June 7, 1767.
8. Carl Gustaf MANNERSTEDT, born June 3, 1768.
9. Carolina MANNERSTEDT, born March 6, 1770.
Charlotta Sophia MANNERSTEDT was my direct ancestor.
I am new to researching in the area of Göteborg och Bohus län, Sweden, and
I appreciate any information and help you have to offer.
