Hi Deanna,
 
There is no parish with the name Astorp, Åstorp or Ästorp, but the most known place is Åstorp i Björnekulla parish, Kristianstads län now Skåne län. Which is it?

Deanna,
 
Thera are at least 37 Åstorp and 2 Ästorp in Sweden, so a little more information would not became amiss.

Dear Sam, The Carlson brothers were from Astorp i Bjornekulla parish. I have a postcard of the big church as well as a postcard of the town from family there corresponding with my grandparents here in Canada. The A in Astorp has a little o above the A.  I must have cousins there and would dearly love to meet them.  Thank you for responding.

Dear Bo,Charles CARLSON, my grandfather and his brothers, Frank, Einer, and the Eldest Claes Barkman were from Astorp i Bjornekulla. The town where the big white church sits on the hill. Their father lived in that town and had a house there. I understand they were railroad people. The Carlson boys all emigrated to Canada via the U.S.A aproximately 1905.  I know where they ended up in Canada, but I must have some cousins in Sweden. They had a sister I think, and my grandfather married Louvisa Kristina Falk. All I have is a newpaper announcement from Astorp, of their engagement. 1910.        
My grandmother lived in Canada, with Grandpa, but I cannot find her family in Sweden either. She had a sister Jenny.    
              I have pictures, but no information.
       Regards Deanna Summy

I am still searching for my grandma's sister and my cousins. My grandmother's name was Lovisa Kristina Falk, born sept 13, 1884. She was from Lund parish and Malmohus county or I may have that backwards. She emmigrated to Canada in 1911 to marry my grandpa Emil Carlson from Bjornkulla Parish but who had emmigrated to Canada. There was an engagement announcement in the Astorp newspaper. I know she had a sister Jenny and a brother. I have pictures of them. I would dearly love to meet my cousins. I do hope someone can help me.
           Thankyou,
