Thank you, Bo, for the rapid reply. I sat all morning with the Swedish Gothic letters trying to puzzle it out and looked at the old Landmateriet maps for Hille and guessed Hillevikens masugn, but then I thought, how could someone be born at an iron works oven, I must be wrong. So happy to have got one right, even if it is strange. Thank you so much. Means her family must have worked there at the iron works. Too bad the HFL records start in 1749 for Hille.
