NORDANSTIGS BYGD- OCH SLÄKTBAND

This is a place for members of our society.

The site has information about villages in and people with connection to the swedish county of Nordanstig; which consists of the following parishes: Bergsjö, Gnarp, Harmånger, Hassela, Ilsbo and Jättendal.

The county is situated in the middle of Sweden; about 300 km north of Stockholm; in a part, "landskap", called Hälsingland, and in the "län" (apprx. state) of Gävleborg.

Maps over the parishes and villages can be found on the Map page.

You are welcome to ask questions and to send messages on our guestbook page.
