Lovanger - Krekanger

[Kim Langenberg]

We have some information about a location and I can't find any place to tell me where it is.  It is supposed to be the birthplace of my husband's great-great grandfather.  They wrote it down as Krekanger, Lovanger, Sweden.  I found Lovanger on a map, but come up with nothing for Krekanger.  Does anyone have an idea what Krekanger is or where it is?  Thanks so much for your help.  Kim

Kim,
 
When serching on the site of the National Land Survey, I found a Kräkånger farm close to Lövånger in municipality of Skellefteå in Västerbotten county. See maps below

I hope you understood that Kräkånger nowadays is called Lövsele.

Thank you so much for clearing this up.  My husband and I thought maybe it was the name of a smaller area or farm & you've cleared that up.
