KERSTIN ANDERSDOTTER
was born at Skerrud, Gestad, Älvsborg, Sweden on Jan. 5, 1784. She married first, in 1801, Anders Larsson. They had two children. Anders died in 1808.

OLOF PETTERSSON was born at Torgunnehagen, Gestad, on Christmas day in 1788. After Anders Larsson died, KERSTIN and OLOF married and they initially lived at the Bön farm. Later they moved to Torgunnehagen, where OLOF was born, and then to Kuserud in Erikstad.

OLOF died in 1840 and was buried at the old Erikstad kyrka (see photo, right). In 1846 KERSTIN left Kuserud, and moved to Markustorp to live with her son PETER OLSSON and his family. She died there on Nov. 2, 1852.
