Sweden: Carl Wictor Danielson

[SuperFuzz]

Hi there,

I am looking for birth of Carl Wictor/Wiktor Danielson. He later moved to America but I know he was born about 1843 in Örebro, Sweden. I can't find any record of his birth, which is a shame as I was hoping to find out who his parents were and go back further. His wife was 'Kristina Charlotta Jansdotter', and she was born about 1841 in Sweden, again can't find her or her parents either. 'Danielson' might be spelled 'Danielssen' or 'Danielsson'. I have seen in one person's tree on Ancestry, his name as 'Carl Vietor/Wietor Danielson' as well.

Thanks so much if you can help.

The whole family left for USA 10 Aug 1885. I noticed somewhere that 1 or 2 of Carl's siblings also emigrated to USA.

Also,
Carl's family was a family of thieves including Carl Victor. His father served 8 years hard labour for his troubles and there is a wonderful photo of his father from the prison records:

Wow, this is amazing! Is his father's name 'Daniel Carlson'? It looks like there is a letter before the 's' in Carlson, but I cannot make it out. Is the mother 'Brita Maya Olod'? Can't quite make out her name

Wow, this is amazing, thank you sooooooo much. Is that Carl's father Daniel? Also how did you find out they are all thieves? Do you know what their crimes were? Thanks again!
