Names were crossed out when the people left the parish, or died. You can figure out where they went by referencing the "flyttat" column

This is so helpful-thank you!! I keep returning to my grandfather’s family when researching, but get bogged down in the language difference and don’t really stick to it like I should. He was from Luleå in Norbotten, just south of the Arctic Circle, which is actually very helpful to me. Since the area is very depopulated, and was even more so a hundred years ago when he left for Chicago, it’s easier to track his ancestors. Having your explanation of the parish records is great help.

I was just perusing through Ukraine on Google Maps and a picture of this cemetery caught my eye, so I put it into YT and this video came up first. This cemetery did not disappoint and you did a great job of showing some of it to us. Grobowiec Rodziny Kotowskich is Polish for The Kotowski Family Tomb. -- Cool! So they're family tombs, that's why they're so big. Thanks for the tour and your readings of some of the graves. 🤓👻☠💀❣

Question - my 3rd Great grandfather was born in Clifden... around 1839 or so. I am under the impression that Clifden was created as a town...sometime around 1838... so I am trying to figure out where to look in the Tithe Applotment for the name Toole... since Clifden may not have existed as a designation in the 1820s... any idea?

Instead of using Google maps, which is great but doesn't display nearly all names of places, you ought to use Lantmäteriet's map. Which is the national mapping service of Sweden.

Nevermind! I was able to load it by going through another county. My ancestor's townland (Bearvaish in Drumrat, County Sligo) was in one of the very few spots in Ireland where there wasn't a map, I guess. This was only for map 1, though. So once I loaded in for a different county and found Bearvaish, I was able to switch to map 2 and see it!

@@seakinireland Have you gotten it to load yet? If not, try what I did in my reply above. Search for a different county, say County Donegal, and choose a random person living there and open the map. Then move the slider over to modern map and locate your county. From there, you can move the slider back to historical map and you should be able to see it.

You are related to Thomas and Walker Buckner, who ran (CEO, EVP) New York Life Insurance Company in the early 20th century. They lived in Westchester County, and are buried in Ferncliff Cemetery in Hartsdale NY. They are my direct relatives, who are part of the John Buckner tree.

About 10minutes, 45 seconds, you cannot find a particular land lot on the nice map with red lines for boundaries. This map dates from the 1870s. You are reading the printed primary valuation. To compare the map and primary valuation, you need to look at the earliest valuation map. I know the early maps are not as easy to read, having faint black lines complicated by inkblots, rips etc. Alternatively when you look at the revision books (aka "cancelled" books) in the valuation office, try to compare the red line map with the revised books of the 1870s /80s. As land holdings amalgamated or subdivided, the valuator would amend the map and denominations. Usually only in small ways but sometimes quite radically. As emigration had a substantial effect on north Donegal, considerable amendment may have been made between 1840s/50s and 1870s/80s.

Yes you soon learn that page numbers are not image numbers! The reason for the discrepancy is that the image file includes the cover, flyleaf, introduction, etcetera, before your Wills even begin.

I used your instructions to map my family back to Ljunby Kronoberg area too! I found the areas and took screenshots on google maps street view to show my family the area our ancestors were in. I do have one question if you seen this - I have hit dead ends when people moved from another area (so there isn't a page reference for me to follow). How best should I look for page references between parishes etc?

Hello! What do you mean by superimpose? Are you referring to the gray areas I added to show the townships/properties? If so - I use Google My Maps (not Google Maps) - you can create Google My Maps the same way you create Google Docs or Google Sheets in your Google drive, if you have a Google account.
