Patrick,
Hulu is a common farm name locally in Småland. I don’t know what it means.
If I find out I will let you know.

Thanks for your patience. What does Hulu mean? I've seen that there are numerous places named that. Didn't find anything in the Swedish - English online dictionary.

Patrick, You can look for " Hulu, Västra Ryd " on Google Earth

Leif. is there a Hulu farm in V. Ryd also? From 1818 - 1836 the family lived at Hulu farm in Lommaryd.

I just looked it up on the map and V. Ryd and Lommaryd aren't that far apart so it makes sense.

Thanks.

Yes it is, Johannes lived at Hulu farm in V. Ryd, Ostergotland.

Thats correct Cheri, I thought Patrick (sorry for slipping on the keys and put an -a on your name) didn't know where his Gustaf Johnson and his siblings were born, none of that was in the original post.

The files Jönköping Gen Soc are soon at the end as they will take them of the website. This as there is so much errors in them. You really has to check with the original and see if the info are correct. The Gen Soc will produce a CD instead with the errors corrected.

Probably V Ryd means Västra Ryd in Östergötland,

Myself work on a database of emigrants from the Falköping are in Skaraborg, some of "found" emigrants are at my website www.emigrant.se (klick on the GB flag to find the english vers). /Annelie

Thanks, Leif. I appreciate any help. Maybe you or someone on here can answer a question that has been bothering me. Johnannes Johansson's birth place is listed at "V. Ryd". Is that Vastra Ryd in Ostergotland? Thanks again!

Patrick, I think that Annelie as well as myself thought with your initial posting that you were wanting help in locating Gustaf Johnson. I think Annelie lives in Sweden. She has been wonderful to help people who need some guidance. She has found at least one great bit of info for me and she also has a wonderful web site which centers mostly on the Falkoping area.(Skaraborgs Lan). She may want to correct my information!
