Swedish birth - possible father's name?

[bbart]

That was my hope, but I never found anything in the annual reports from the clergy (can't remember the correct name for that).

Hang on.... Anders Frederick is the stepfather to Karl.  *senior moment*

His stepfather, and his half brother are both Anders Fredericks.   (ugh, double senior moment!)

Yes, Anders Fredrik Andersson born 1852 was Karl's stepfather.

I'll take a wee look in the Magistrate Books to see if it is mentioned.

Is there anything else you need help with. I have access to a number of resources here in Sweden.

That would be great!  I have quite a bit on the family; other than his father's name.

[jamcat95]

Ok, great.

Do you have the page number in the Östersund Birth Book for Karl's birth, or was he born in another parish?

The index says:

Birth Date:    28 aug 1876
Birth Place:    Näs, Västernorrland, Sverige
Page Number:    21
Volume:    C:4

Thanks.
The minister had written Östersund, but Näs it was. Here is the original which you probably already have:

That is much clearer than the one I have, but it does look the same document.
