She was Stina Israelsdotter, nothing else (for her to be "Israelsson" she would require a sex-change operation).
Stina was born 22 March and baptized 25 March.
Stina's parents were farmer Israël Håkansson and his wife Maria Jacobsdotter.
The farm was at Sonarp (also spelled "Sånarp") village.
Israël was born in 1737.
Maria was born in 1741.
In the early 1780's they have three (surviving) children:
Stina, b. 1767
Maja, b. 1772
Israel, b. 1782
It was uncommon for the eldest son to be named after his father; usually the third son was so named (the first after paternal grandfather, the second after maternal grandfather). In this case there's certainly no problem in fitting in a few children between Maja and Israel.
