My 3rd great great aunt Margeta Eriksdotter Slåtte was born 16 Jan 1751 in Kronoby, Finland. She married Hans Olofsson Rudnäs on 23 Oct 1772 in Kronoby, Finland. It appears they had 11 children from 1776 to 1794, also in Kronoby, Finland, at Rudnäs farm, though I haven't gotten to the stage of verifying those births.
Now, it seems like with all that information on Margeta and Hans, I should be able to discover when they died. No luck yet on that, though. Last night and this morning I spent hours online checking churchbooks and HisKi Project, and not finding when these two died, but at least I know their last child was probably born 17 Feb 1794, so at least I have that to work off of.
There is a Greta Eriksdotter that died in 1832 with a residence of Rudnäs farm, but the age at death is off by a few years. I found that on HisKi Project.
Still, that might be her....
I think it is time to move on to a different ancestor and come back to Margeta and her husband some other day.
