This was a huge move, geographically. Does the Parrish record in Almeboda support this relocation?
DD's Sister

Olof Andersson was working for the railway company as a ´banvakt', which my dictionary translates to line-man. Those had to take care of a specific part of the local line. They often lived in a cottage owned by the railway company. They could be relocated to other parts of the Swedish railway system.

In Älmeboda church book AI:25a page 323 the family moves out from Qvisingsö village 1889 to Borgsjö parish in Västernorrland.
In the census 1890 they are living in Bräcke parish in Jämtland.
In Bräcke church book AI:9 page 26 they have moved in to Bensjö village from Borgsjö parish 1890.
In Bräcke church book AIIA:1 page 54 the parents and five of the children move back to Älmeboda 1906.

So in short: it is fully supported!

Bo-Arne

Bo-Arne,
I gave your message to my sister over the phone and she wanted to thank you very much for responding to her question. She's very pleased and I'm sure that when she gets to a computer she will thank you herself.
