pinnaremåla
Pinnaremåla m fl gårdar runt
Björkesbo på slutet av 1800-talet
bed and breakfast
The people named in table below is'nt relatives for Åke Myrenäs
but according to the parishregister (husförhörslängder)
from churchbooks I've studied they moved to NA in the late 19:th century.
(NA means North America)
The names are not found on the CDROM named in Sweden as "the Emigration
CDROM" which can be found in most of the libraries in Sweden.
Björkesbo is situated in Småland and belongs to the province
of Calmar. Vena eller Hwena is the name of the parish.
These crofters holding (without Pinnaremåla) doesn't exist
today but had lied close to the area of Björkesbo. My research is
to find out if they came to NA and if so how is the best way to find out
if there exists relatives to those named in the table and if they still
living there?
