Where are the following: Carlston, Carlstorp and Lofasen Parish?

[Carol Adams]

My great grandparents emigrated from towns which I cannot locate on the map of Sweden.  Could someone help?
 
Johannes Isacson from Carlston, Sweden
Lena Jonsdotter from Carlstorp, Lofasen Parish
 
Thank you very much!

Hi Carol,
 
There is no parish called Löfåsen/Lövåsen nor Carlstorp/Karlstorp but there are 94 places called Lövåsen/Löfåsen in Sweden and 109 called Karlstorp/Carlstorp so this will not be easy. Do you have any other information that might help knowing from which area of Sweden they came, i.e. northern, southern, from where other family came etc.
 
Kind regards
Mats Högberg

They all lived in Smaland.  Is that a help?

Then there are only 7 Karlstorp and 2 Löfåsen to choose from in Kalmar län:
 
Karlstorp in Borgholm (Öland)
Karlstorp in Emmaboda
Karlstorp in Hultsfred
Karlstorp in Kalmar
Karlstorp in Oskarshamn
Karlstorp in Vimmerby
Karlstorp in Västervik
 
Lövåsen in Vimmerby
Lövåsen in Västervik
 
You can search for these places at a site called Lantmäteriet where you will get a small map that you can zoom.
 
You can also choose different types of maps on the left side of the screen.
 
Once you clicked the link below you will need to wait until the initial map has been loaded. You will see some coloured boxes moving up to the right during this process. After that you should click with the right mouse button on the arrow FRAMÅT.
 
Click here to go to Lantmäteriet.
 
Kind regards

Thanks for your help, Mats.  My great-great grandparents: Johanes Isak Andersson and Lena Jonsdotter came from these places in the 1700's. This is such a great site.  So helpful and generous.  Carol

Hi Carol,
Your great grandparents emigrated probably from Lövåsen, a small place in Karlstorp parish, Jönköping län, Småland.

Hi Carol,
 
Yes, Kenneth is right. I missed that there is a parish called Karlstorp in the municipality of Vetlanda, Småland. Sorry for the confusion!
 
Best regards
Mats
