Hi Layna,
 
I used this intriging website to search for photos for you.

Use the box with Fritext sökning and put the location, with the proper Swedish letters, into Sökord. Then click Sök.
 
 
Here are some photos of Skänninge.

I didn't find any photos for Västra Harg on that site.
 
There are quite a few Ekeby parishes. Which county is yours in? Here are seven pages of photos from various Ekebys. Click on the page number at the bottom of each page to move to another page.

To help with Ekeby, look at this page and choose the Ekeby which is in the county yours lived in. Then note carefully what municipality your Ekeby is in, so you can choose the correct photo. There are lots of Ekebys. Choose the ones labeled as church. The Swedes might need to help you with choosing the correct Ekeby.

The only Åsbo parish I can find is in Östergötland, not Jönköping. Here is one photo of Åsbo.

I don't know if any of those places will be included on this website, but it is growing so bookmark it and check again later.
