'''''Bless the tax man of 1663!''''' Here he lists Jôns Torson, and wife ''Elena,'' and Tor Andersön and wife ''Hanna''. Besides obtaining the probable name for Jöns and Asmund's mother, the information also tells us Jöns Torson was married at least twice, since his wife in the 1700 tax list was named ''Gertru''. | '''''Bless the tax man of 1663!'''''

The 1666 and 1668 lists were so faint, no names could be read - there was just a line here, a blob of ink there. That does happen sometimes, considering these records are over 300 years old. Perhaps in the originals more could be read. | The 1666 and 1668 lists were so faint, no names could be read - there was just a line here, a blob of ink there.

Jôns Torson and wife (1 1 _ _ _) appear in the extant 1670, 1671, 1672, and 1675 lists - still residing at Henckelstorp. In 1672, a possible brother of Jôns and Asmund appears i.e. a Måns Thorson and wife, also listed at Henckelstorp. They did not appear before that, and they never appear after. That shows again why <u>'''''it is so very important''''' once you have begun a tax list search, to search every extant year, and a wide time frame.</u> | Jôns Torson and wife (1 1 _ _ _) appear in the extant 1670, 1671, 1672, and 1675 lists - still residing at Henckelstorp.

The next available list was 1680 where we started the search in the tax lists. '''''(See Step 4)''''' It is interesting to note that both Jöns Torson and Asmund Torson are listed as single taxables i.e. no wives being taxed. Perhaps that is the year Jôns first wife died, and Asmund had not yet married. We can't say for sure, as the parish registers don't exist, but, | The next available list was 1680 where we started the search in the tax lists.
