Depending upon when Asmund and Pernilla married, (between @1671 and 1681 when Elena was born), there could be several more children belonging to the familiy.  In fact, we know from the catechism records and the tax lists Elena had at least two siblings, Boeld and Kierstene.

The child bearing years of Elena Asmundsdotter's mother, Pernilla, could range from @1664 to @1702.  Accordingly, the first searches in the christening records of Vastra Karaby ran from 1688, when the records began, to 1703.  Three additional siblings were found - Lars, Gertru and Jöns!  There could have been 2 to 3 more children born between 1681 when Elena was born, and 1688, when the parish registers began.  If they survived to teen-age or beyond, their names could be picked up if they survived and married in Västra Karaby parish, or, if they can be identified working on someone else's farm in the tax lists.

Jöns Torsson, Asmund's brother, and Jöns' wife Gertru disappeared off the tax rolls between 1705 and 1709.  Searches of the death records began in 1705 since, if the tax list was taken early in the year, they could have died the latter part of the year. As the records show, both of them died in 1708.  "10 Apr 1708 buried Jöns Torsson's wife Giertrud who died the 1st of April  (after) becoming sick on 25 March.  Age 66 years & 20 weeks" = born @ Nov 1641.

If any of Jöns and Asmund's siblings i.e. people surnamed "Torsson/Tordson" had had a 2nd or perhaps even third marriage in Västra Karaby, a search of those records could add more information to the family tree.  The catechism lists had provided the name of at least one probable sister, "Nilla Torsdtr" wife of Jöns Christensson.  There could still be other siblings, especially if a spouse had died and they had re-married, so a search of the marriage records ensued, covering the time period 1691 (when they began) to 1722.

No groom nor bride surnamed Torsson or Thorson nor Tordson was found in that time period.  However, marriages of the children and possible children of both Asmund and Jöns Torsson were found and duly noted.
