Relative locations Øsløs-Hjardemaal-Korsø and Blausgaard?

[Lynn Christiansen]

I am trying to get a feel for how far apart some locations are:

in this entry https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QSQ-G944-FSZH?wc=M5KX-J49%3A357516601%2C359600201%2C359799801%2C359803401&cc=2078555
#5 it gives the following:

Anno: 1787
Numb: 5
d: 3 Junÿ døbt Jens Jensen Blausgaards Pige Kaldet JOHANNE MARIA, Test: Maren Jensdatter fra Øsløs, Søren Jensens kone, Christen Poulsen Blausgaard, Christen Pedersen, Niels Marsbøl

the wife is not identified so I am going through a process to specifically identify the correct Jens Jensen and who his spouse is.

I have identified several Jens Jensens and several spouses. I have also located 12 children and only one of them has his mother identified. From FamilyTree 6 of the children are identified with at least two of his "wives"

I want to start by determining how far apart the following are:

Øsløs to Hjardemaal  (google maps 14.4 km)
Hjardemaal to Korsø (google maps 2.7 km, further down the same road)

Blausgaard ?? is this a specific location? It is taken from the Parish entry above.

I have tried to Google Map it but nothing is to be located.

Any help would be appreciated...Thank you...

Thank you Ralph !!!

Is there by chance a listing of such changes or website where one can obtain the changes?

Is there a listing of "Gaards" and where they are located?

[Ralph Rasmussen]

I have tried names via Google on the older maps I have at hand.  This should be more direct:

You probably know http://www.krabsen.dk/stednavnebase/
But to find Hjardemål parish you need to write Hjardemål and not Hjardemaal.

Have you tried http://historiskatlas.dk/ where you can see maps (kort) from different periods.
Find Hjardemaal parish, and NE to Hjardemaal you see Blovsgaarde (1899 named Blavsgaarde), which
is 2 farms (sing./plur. - gaard/gaarde) close to eachother.

Thank you Ole for the link to the http://historiskatlas.dk/, I had the link but forgot about it. I located the villiage that I was interested in, it took some hunt and seek methods.

Does the site have a Search aspect?

Or are there any instructions on how to best use the site?

Again, Thank you......

[Ole Westermann]

No, it does not have a search aspect.
The site does not work with Google Chrome, so I use Internet Explorer.
Scroll in on the area you want to look at.
Scroll down on 'Kort' and on most of the maps you can see the parish borders.
Then you have to look around in the parish to find the place you are looking for.
In ex. Hjardemål parish it's interesting to how the landscape changes between 1945 and 1976,
when many of the heather areas disappear and different plantations are established.

I have been playing with the site and it is COOL-----Thank you for the heads up...There is a Search feature in the lower left hand corner at the bottom

[Ole Westermann]

I hadn't noticed the Search feature, so thank you for that info.
