Johannes Christofferson (1789-1815) was my great-great-great-grandfather, I
believe. His wife was Anna Maria Maja Olofsdotter (1793-1838). Their son
was Jacob Axel Johansson (1810-1873) who was my great-great-grandfather.
His son was Axel Jacobson, my great-grandfather.
After Johannes Christofferson died, Anna Maria Maja Olofsdotter married
Olof Nilsson (1788-1854) by whom she had six children. Five of them had
more children who are therefore my cousins.
The father of Johannes Christofferson (1789-1815) was Christopheson
Axelsson who was born in 1739. His wife was Catarina Wistrand. The father
of Christopherson Axelsson was Axel Hojer or Hoyer who was born in 1710.
All of this comes from the IGI. I have searched the Disbyt Database and I
cannot find any of these people there, except for one entry about Johannes
Christofferson (1789-1815) alone and the six children by the second husband
of Anna Maria Maja Olofsdotter.
Can anybody confirm their existence? Have I spelled their names wrong?
Any help would be appreciated.
