Titel: Parishes in Dalsland
Skrivet av: Karen Wise skrivet 1999-11-06, 00:27
Does anyone know where I might find a map and list of Parishes in Dalsland?  
I am also interested in the same for Nordmaling.

Karen.
I will send you a simple map of Dalsland via e-mail. I don't have anyone for the parish of Nordmaling.

My grandfather was Lars Gustaf Nielsson.  There seems to be many different spellings - Gustav and Nelsson.  I have information that the family came from Animskog and believe that there is a church there.  Is that correct?  And is there access to family information there? Also, I have information about a school located there and has that been turned into a museum?

Rosemary.
Yes, Ånimskog is a parish in Dalsland, located south of the city of Åmål. The church records from late 17th century to 1895 are kept at the State Archives of Gothenburg, but they are microfilmed. The church records from the 20th century are still kept at the church office of Tösse.
The original spelling of your grandfather's name would be Nilsson.  
And, you are perfectly right about the school that has been turned into a museum. The name of that school is Årbol.

If he moved to Halland, that is NOT a nearby area, but a province quite far to the south. It sounds a bit strange that he was still working at the age of 71. You should try to follow him in the parish records, and try to find him in the birth record.
