Marriage records for Halland
(only available in Swedish)
|
Hallands Släktforskarförening has during
several years worked with entering parish records of Halland in a database.
The process started with the marriage records from their beginning and
up to 1860, and all parishes are now included. We observe that the percentage
of couples, where one of the partners is coming from another parish, is
approximately 20%. Normally a couple marries in the parish where the parents
of the bride lives, and this register is an excellent aid in searching
for an individual who has moved to a parish.

of the nicknames in the parish of Örkened. In former times, most

this nickname.
