-== Tips ==
-Never assume that a child died in infancy just because a younger child is christened with the same name. If you cannot find a death date for the older child, do not assume that the child died in infancy. It pays to study the list of debts and assets of the estate (''boets skulder och tillgångar'') very carefully. It was common then as now to lend or borrow from relatives, and they may be mentioned by name and relationship.
