Brändön Parish

[Chad Lupkes]

I am looking for genealogy information from around the turn of the century from the Parish at Brändön.  Can anyone help me?  My grandfather Arvid Valdemar Johansson was supposed to have been born there on September 11, 1907.

There is no parish called Brändön, but there is several places in Norrland, in North Sweden, with that name.

I have seen the name Brändön in Nederluleå, Norrbotten.  That is way up north in Sweden.  Do you know the names of your gr grandparents?  We could look on the 1890 census.

Brändö is a parish in the district of Åland, a group of islands situated between Sweden and Finland. The district belongs to Finland but has a 100 % swedish speaking population.
 
The editor of this e-zine, Håkan Skogsjö, is living in Åland and is a specialist of the genealogi there. I recommend that you ask this question under Landskap, Åland, socknar, Brändö.

Does this look like the right family?  This is from the 1890 Norrbotten census.
