Paryd

[penny]

I would appreciate any help with a few bits of information I have. The first information is in my husbands great granfather's WWI draft registration papers it state that he was born in Paryd, Sweden, but Kalmar was written then crossed out. Then his exit papers from Sweden has from Bossmala  and then it has Karlslunda in Kalmar lan. I have entered Paryd and Bossmala in a search of places at the Family History web sight and it says there are no such locations. Then on his WWI draft papers it says his parents reside in Bosmala, Sweden. Are these places towns or maybe churches? Are they all located in Kalmar lan? Thank you for any help.

Hello Penny,
 
Påryd is a city and Bossmåla is a village in Karlslunda parish, Kalmar län.
 
For to find the places on for example expediamaps You have to put a ring over a like å.
 
Look at PLFmenu

I wouldn't say that Påryd is a city, but it is a larger village just outside Kalmar (NW of Kalmar).

Hi Peter, I wouldn't say that Påryd is NW of Kalmar, more likely SW I think!

Okey, Sorry about that. Geography has never been my strong subject in school! :-)
