Anders Andersson Forsberg

[bsgraves]

I am searching for information about my ancestors. My 3rd great grandparents were Anders Andersson Forsberg (sep 1, 1830 - feb 15 1860) and Brita Sophia Jakobsdotter (Oct 4 1831 - ?) Anders was born in Monas, Finland I believe and Brita was born in Munsala, Finland. They lived in Munsala after they were married until they died. Anders was the village tailor. I would like to find information about their parents and beyond. I am having difficulty finding them in finnish records in large part because of the language barrier. If anyone can point me in the right direction, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks,
Shari

Looking from http://hiski.genealogia.fi/hiski Anders and Brita were married in Munsala:

Anders Anders was born 16.9.1830 in Pedersöre, not 1.9.1830 as Munsala Communion book shows. Many of Anders' (Sr.) and Anna Lisa's children were born in Pedersöre. Using again Hiski in http://hiski.genealogia.fi/hiski I found:

Compare above to children shown in Munsala Communion book. It's same family I would say.

Brita Sophia Jacobsdr and parents in Munsala Communion book 1831-1844: http://digihakemisto.appspot.com/edit?hakid=23324&kuvanumero=3&ay=2703415&sartun=115709.KA&atun=165777.KA&amnimeke=Munsala+f%C3%B6rsamlings+arkiv&sarnimi=Huvud-+och+kommunionb%C3%B6cker&aynimi=Kommunionbok++1831-1844+%28II%29&kuid=9027206

Brita's and his parent's birthdays are right there so it should be easy to find their births using Hiski

Anders Anderss Forsberg and Brita Sophia Jacobsdr moved 1854: http://digi.narc.fi/digi/view.ka?kuid=9028428

They have there two sons:

Johan Jacob 25/10 1856
Anders Wilhelm 30/10 1859 ,

Anders died 19/2 1860 just 4 days after his father?
