This record is a death record that identifies a death that occurred in Alvsborg Ian but there is no town listed. So where did FamilySearch get this record from? They have a specific date, so there has to be a death record somewhere. Where do I go to find it?? Any ideas?

    This appears to be the death record from Arkivdigital index, which gives more particulars on the location:

    Open the Document Information:

    Copy the Microfilm Number and use this to search in the Catalog:

    Apparently this film covers four parishes so you will need to do some searching:

    Here is the first result:

    Scrolling down looking for the microfilm you can see it has both marriages and deaths:

    Click on the camera to go to the microfilm and start scrolling through the pages until you find the record you are interested in. As you go through the film you will be able to see how it is arranged and which parish the death record actually came from.
