Research
Not found in Vånga, Kristianstad, birth register, for year 1795.
Also not found in Vånga Husförhörslängd for 1817-1819 (browsed only looking for birth year 1795).

Age at death suggests birth was actually in 1802.
There was an Olu, born 17 Jul 1802, but it looks like the father was “Sven” so that disqualifies this entry.

Not found in year 1801 either.

Birth record for daughter, Nilla, states that Olu was 26 at the time (25-AUG-1828, implying a birth year of 1802.
