Hi there! New to the forum and super happy to see that a resource like this exists.

I also just discovered ArkivDigital and have been down that rabbit hole for the last 2 weeks looking into family lines previously thought unknowable.

I have run into an odd dead end. My ancestors seemed to have stayed around the Valbo parish region until they moved to America. But now I'm back in the mid 1700s and a couple birth records show Forsbacka (sp?) as the birth place for 2 ancestors. But when I go to find household exam books for Fosbacka, so I can get a better trace of their history, I can't find them listed in the Valbo parish in Arkiv. The Household exam book for the time frame I need doesn't list Forsbacka in the index at the beginning of the book. Google says Fosbacka is now part of Galve municipality, but I went through the entirety of the Galve household exam book looking for any name to match and couldn't find one.

Shouldn't Forsbacka be in Valbo parish since the birth records for Forsbacka are in Valbo parish? Was it known by a different name at some point? Or was it in a different parish back in the 1700s?
