Dronninglund Sogn, Hjørring Amt 1849-1860, Opslag #56, 12 Mai 1854, #29, Birth & Bapt. of Jacob Sørensen.  Under the names of his father & mother is "Store Bjørnlund".
What does "Store Bjørnlund" mean?   Is it the name of a farm?

I find a Bjørnlund four or five miles north of Dronninglund church.  It is likely the store (greater) Bjørnlund, but a  lesser Bjørnlund may lie very close or even some miles away, but as it happens in the same parish.  I read that latter from references to the two found with Google's help.
