The eldest children had already moved from their home and served at different places. But the young ones lived at home with the mother. The county sheriff Rosenberg, who in 1839 took over the farm of Eric Svensson, caused at the 1846 autumn district court sessions a summons to be issued against Benedicta.

The brother dragoon Nills Strömlin(d) settled down on a "bodelstorp" (a crofter's holding with land around entirely owned by the user) under the farm. This crofter's holding was situated on Hemnäset. The crofter was allowed to use 4 mälingar (1 mäling = 385 square metres) as arable land and part of the outlying land so that he could have 3-4 cattle. The dragoon Strömlin(d) died in December 1808 on the hospital of the western army. According to the agreement with the farmer he had to buy back the crofter's holding when the crofter had died. But the farmer and the widow of Nills – Maren Johansdotter 40 years old with six small children – came to a new agreement that they could stay in the crofter's holding and also use 40 loaded carts with feed every year. Maren had, however, to do 10 day-works for this; 3 in springtime, 5 during the mowing season and 2 during the autumn. An agreement between the farmers on Öhn, which illustrates the circumstances of crofters and soldiers, is shown in the following minutes from the 1799 spring district court sessions where it gained legal force. "The undersigned farmers from Öhn have come to the following agreement. None crofter or soldier is allowed to fish in the fishing-waters which far and near belong to the farmers on Öhn, if not all farmers have agreed to this. They are neither allowed to hunt in the forests or cause some damages to the forests. They may only take firewood and use forest for "mulbete", which is pasture in the forests for cattle. Every crofter or soldier who breaks this agreement is fined 5 riksdaler. If anyone of the farmers promises a crofter or soldier to break the agreement the farmer also is fined 5 riksdaler.
