Re: Per Persson och Ingeborg Eriksdotter

Per Persson and Ingeborg Eriksdotter are typical Swedish names, and it’s common in Swedish genealogical records to encounter these kinds of names. The suffixes "son" and "dotter" are patronymic, meaning "son of" and "daughter of," respectively. Therefore, Per Persson would be fitted sheets the son of someone named Per, and Ingeborg Eriksdotter would be the daughter of someone named Erik.
