[edit] Birth
Lars was born in on June 03, 1797 or June 03, 1794 in Södermanland, Sweden. There are two documents that have a birth date, and each has a different date.

The 1820 Sweden Census has Lars Magnus Wingblad living in Stockholm, Sweden.
[edit] Impregnation
Lars Wingblad impregnated Brita Christina Ökneberg (1799-?) in November or December of 1822. Brita was born on September 28, 1799.
[edit] Engagement
Lars became engaged to Anna Ericsdotter Wennström. They made their vows at Katarina parish on February 09, 1823. This was just one month after impregnating Brita Christina Ökneberg.
[edit] First Child
Brita gave birth on August 10, 1823 to Carl Wilhelm Wingblad (1823-bef1830) just six months after Lars got enagaged. Carl was baptised at Hedvig Eleonora parish, Stockholm, Sweden on Sunday, August 18, 1823. Lars and Brita were listed as "Gesellen Wingblad" and "Br. Chr. Oknaberg".
[edit] Break Engagement
At their own request Lars and Anna were released from their vow to marry on August 03, 1824. The record says: "after closer knowledge of each others temperment and reasoning they realized that a union of marriage would cause them both unhappiness". The real reason was Lars child with another woman. They had been engaged for one year and six months.
[edit] Marriage
Lars, just two months later, married Brita Christina Ökneberg (1793-?) on October 10, 1824 at Katarina parish, Stockholm, Stockholm, Sweden. She was born on September 28, 1793 at Torshälla parish, Södermanland, Sweden. Her parents may have been: Lars Ökneberg (c1747-?), a soldier; and Brita Olsdotter (c1747-?). There may be two people with the name "Brita Christina Ökneberg" so her parent's names will have to be confirmed from the marriage record.
[edit] Second Child
Their child, Anton Julius Winblad I (1828-1901), was born on October 08, 1828. Anton was baptised on October 11, 1828 in Stockholm at St. Maria Magdalena Church (Mariakyrkan).
[edit] Linköping, Sweden
The 1830 Household examination rolls show Lars working as a carpentar in Linköping, Sweden while Brita was still working as a maid in Stockholm, living with her child Anton. By 1834 the rolls show that Brita and Anton joined Lars in Linköping, Sweden.
