Life story

A Vallsjö Croft, Divided

Sven Nilsson was born September 5, 1762, likely in Hultsjö Parish, Jönköping County, Sweden, and married Helena Petersdotter, settling at the croft of Hemmingstorp in Skepperstad from 1795 before moving in 1812 to the croft of Rosendal in Eksjöhofgård, Vallsjö Parish, where he remained for the rest of his life. He was recorded as poor and in ill health in the early 1820s. Sometime between 1831 and 1841 the family's portion of Rosendal was split off and renamed Fridhem. Sven died January 2, 1845, in Vallsjö Parish.
