The Name
The croft named Skogstorpet, was originally placed on the estate of Sundranäs, the living quarters of lieutenant-colonels. The name of the croft is known since the 1750's but was called Fiskaretorpet when the former soldier by the Kronoberg Regiment Jonas Larsson Fiskare moved there in 1815. Fishing was a main source of income for later tenants which lead to the name Fiskaretorpet getting stuck to the croft.
The name Skogstorpet can be translated into "The croft of the woods" and Fiskare torpet can be translated into "The croft of the fisher".
