Hej Cindy - Many emigrants from Värmland left through Norwegian ports, and the Norwegian records are available for free online at http://digitalarkivet.uib.no/cgi-win/WebFront.exe?slag=vis&tekst=meldingar&spraak=e. You may be able to find her there. I took a quick look for her on the Emihamn database on the Emigrant CD, which contains records from mostly Swedish ports (plus a few from Copenhagen and Hamburg), but could not find her. I think the odds are pretty good that she left from a Norwegian port.

Is this emmigration information available on-line? I have a Sarah Bratten who was born Sept 23, 1869 according to records I have. But that was not her name when she was born. According to what I have, her name may have been Sigrid Olsson, born to Olof Olson and Marit Bengson and they may have been from a farm(?) in the V?rmland area although my records have it spelled as "Wermland" which I was told was really Varmland in pronounciation. Then farm(?) may have been called Brattmon(?). She ended up in North Dakota married to a Hans Hanson, then ultimately in Maryland. I have been able to find this area on a map of Sweden, but have not spent any real time yet investigating what is available on-line. She would probably have come to the US in the 1890's, maybe the latter part as my grandfather, her son, was born in 1900. Thank you for any direction.

Mark, Can you please do a lookup for Grimhult in Fliseryd parish. I heard once upon a time that there had been a fire in Grimhult that destroyed the gård. It was possibly and arson fire but no one was ever taken in for the crime. Thanks so much for your help, Carol in KY -----Original Message----- From: Mark D.

Hej Martin, I had found this Rut Ersson on birthday.se also. I am not sure this is my Rut as this one's name is Rut Gudrun. My Rut did not have Gudrun as part of her given name. Is it possible that the name Gudrun was added at a later date? Is it possible to do a 1970,1980, or 1990 census lookup for her?

Are they separate farms or villages? -- Drageryd was a village in Högsby parish, consisting of 6 farms named Drageryd number 1 to number 6. In the HFL you can see that number 1 to 3 were of size 1 mantal, number 4 to 6 of size 1/2 mantal. These 6 farms were then further subdivided, so that in the Högsby HFL 1861-1870, Drageryd number 2 was divided like this: - one farm of 1/8 mantal on page 139 - one farm of 1/8 mantal on page 140 - one farm of 1/8 mantal on page 141 - a "torp" Hultemåla on page 142 - one farm of 1/8 mantal on page 143 - one farm of 1/8 mantal on page 144 - a "torp" Bäckhult on page 145 - one farm of 1/8 mantal on page 146 - one farm of 1/8 mantal on page 147 - a "torp" Petersberg on page 148 - one farm of 1/8 mantal on page 149 - a "torp" Gjutemåla on page 150 - a "torp" Löfdal on page 151 - a "torp" Nymåla on page 152 - a cottage(?) Dumpemon page 153 - a "torp" Stensö on page 150. The other farms in Drageryd village were similarly subdivided.
