On this 1890 land survey map some of the farms have a "t" or "T" before or after their names, and Ramsjökulle (where my people lived) has "3T" after it. Does anyone know what that means? Torps?

    I wonder if it stands for Torp. Another idea is that it stands for tönder which is a measurement of land.

    Thanks for your reply! I thought maybe torp as well, but it is also just a guess.
