Hans' research documents

On this page I will publish documents that I have written or found about my ancestors (Scroll down to se the list below). They are built on research in church books and other historical documents like maps, local archives and personal documents . In addition to this I have had much help from my mother who had a wonderful memory of past and present up the end of her life.

I have also scanned documents or books that are made by my relatives to make them digitally available to those that are interested in our history. To make this possible I have in many cases optical recognizing program because the printed originals often are copies of copies and therefore not of enough quality to be reproduced. By doing so sometimes some errors can arise that I missed. If you find those please let me know. The advantage of using optical recognizing program is also that you get a editable text that can be used in further genealogy research. I publich the documents here as pdf's because they will come out in the same way on all printers. If you want on in editable format just let me know and I send it to you.


Here you can find the latest version of the documents. The process of my writing includes asking you to comment and make corrections. The stories will evolve by your help and continually be updated which the filename will indicate. If you have any comments or questions please mail me.

To download them click on the filename listed below and the process will start.

If you have Google Earth installed on your computer then you can use the small files (with kmz endings) to create place marks in Google Earth. You can then find the exact localisaton for e.g. the Sodier Modig's Torp Ekebo, Maja Stina Modig's Södra Hagen and the Curch.

Download the files and save them where you can find them. Open Google Earth and click on the files. You will "fly" to the place.

If you don't have Google Earth you can download it for free  at:
