They lived in Mörrum and the father's given name (Ola) means their patronymic last names as adults could be Olsson. This is just a wild guess and the information is a long shot. Without knowing specifics such as when they were born, there can only be guesses from the helpers. Even if you also have to guess, your guesses should be better than those made by a stranger. However, death certificates and other public records should provide a full birthdate or at least an approximate date of birth. 1890 Swedish Census CD: Petersson, Ola       1843       F Nilsson, Anna       1835       M (Barn = child), Emma       1869       Ch (Barn), Matilda       1871       Ch (Barn), Sven       1873       Ch (Barn), Johan       1876       Ch (Barn), Nils Peter       1879       Ch Post 1674925 Petersson, Ola Torpare = tenant farmer b. 1843 i Mörrum (Blekinge län, Blekinge) Man, married (father) Mörrum n:o 18.
