    Death 31 Jul 1839  Sunnanö, Torsång Parish, Kopparberg, SWEDEN Find all individuals with events at this location  [8] 
    • Household examination records state that Eric died on Jul 31, 1839, 12 days after his 23 year old daughter and 5 days before his 16 year old son. In the course of 2 1/2 weeks this family of 7 lost 3 members. I am unable to find the death record for Eric, but I do find the records for his children. The death records for Sunnano show 1 death in May of that year, 2 in June, 11 in July and 22 in August. The cause of death for almost all is listed as "rodsot" or dysentery. Whatever this epidemic was, it was particularly harsh for this small village.
