What parish

I cannot find a parish that matches what I think I see for the birth parish of Marna Hansdotter 30 Sept 1829 see attached screen shot or Husie (M) AI:9 (1851-1857) Image 36 / Page 29

    There is a village by the name of Vintrie in Bunkeflo parish in Mälmöhus. You could try there.

    Thanks I will give that a try. I have never seen a village name listed instead of the parish name

    You were right, she was there! Do you have a suggestion as to a good place to go to search place names in Sweden? (I generally have used Research Wiki to find place names in a parish, but don't know how to look if I don't know the parish)

     

    Thanks again

    Try this link, it is in Swedish but with a little practice you can figure out how to use it. For practice, try searching for "Vintrie" in the "Ortnamn" field: https://www4.sprakochfolkminnen.se/NAU-ortnamn/_helareg1.php .

    The "%" is a wild-card.
