Thank you both for your help. It does look like the second part could be soch. The first part sort of looks like Torn.

I was under the impression that most Finns in this area came from Savo, as Håkan said. I know some were from Rautalampi in particular. I've been looking at the parish list here (http://hiski.genealogia.fi/hiski?en), but none of them seem to match exactly. Do these parishes have different names in Swedish and is there a list of the names in Swedish somewhere?

I think I will also check more of the Grangärde records and see if I can find the same place written elsewhere, where it might be easier to read.
