Tax records for Karlskoga parish - This is a transcription of information from the tax records, primarily the mantalslängder, for Karlskoga parish, organized according to names of the small places within the parish. Most of these transcribed records begin in the early 1600s and continue through 1713. They were copied from microfilm records at the Family History Library in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA, (Mikrofilmer av manuskript i Riksarkivet i Stockholm Filmat för the Genealogical Society of Utah av Rekolid, 1953,1963). Abbreviations: b or m = bonde or man; h=hustru (wife); dot=dotter (daughter); dr=dräng (male worker); p=pigan (female worker); mag=måg (son-in-law) sonshust = sons hustru (son’s wife); enk or änk=änka (widow); soldat (soldier). A semicolon ; is used to separate households. The numbers after the names indicate the number of taxable persons in the household. Note: Diacritics were not available when this index was created, so names such as Månsson and Pärsson were written as Mansson and Parsson. But Jönsson was written as Jo”nsson to distinguish it from Jonsson.
