Fogelbik or Fogelvik

[Laura Higgins]

I recently located information about my great great grandfather who was born in Sweden on 23 July 1886.  His name was Carl Emile Lind.  The information he gave on the record I found was that he was born in Fogelbik, Sweden.  When I search the internet for Fogelbik (Fogelvik), no such town or city is found.  Is there such a town or city called Fogelbik (Fogelvik) in Sweden?  Thank you very much for your time and response.

Laura,  
 
Fågelvik is the modern spelling for Fogelvik. There are several places of that name in different parts of Sweden - farms, villages, parishes and a manor.

[Lars Skillius]

There was and are no place called Fogelbik, but a few farms and villages Fogelvik and Foglavik, nowadays spelled Fågelvik and Fåglavik. (The name consists of the two words fågel meaning bird and vik meaning bay.)
 
The farm Lilla Åsa, mentioned above, is situated in the parish of Jung in the province of Västra Götaland.
 
In the same province, not far from Lilla Åsa, you will find the village Fåglavik in the parish of Hudene.
 
These places are situated not far from the very little town Herrljunga.
