...or anyone that knows genealogy.

I am researhing my genealogy and have hit a strange spot.

My family name seems to be adopted by a generation born after 1814.
I know this was the end of nepoleon's war but unsure of anything else occuring at that time, was it normal to give your children surnames different than your own at that time?

This is the furthest back the best source i have goes:

Nills NILLSSON. Nills married Karna.

Karna. Karna married Nills NILLSSON.

They had the following children:

Female

Margareta FREDIN was born on 4 Nov 1814 in Skarphuset, Tranas, Kristianstad Parish, Sweden

Male

Lars FREDIN was born on 2 Nov 1817 in Skarphuset, Tranas, Kristianstad Parish, Sweden.

Male

Bengt FREDIN was born on 6 Aug 1820 in Skarphuset, Tranas, Kristianstad Parish, Sweden. He died on 13 Oct 1890. He married Ingar ANDERSON. Bengt was baptized on 7 Aug 1820.

Male

Isak FREDIN was born on 9 Apr 1824 in Skarphuset, Tranas, Kristianstad Parish, Sweden.

I know this thanks to //www.geocities.com/fredin_potts_genealogy/pafg09.htm#237
