Hi Sue:
In an old Map Book that I have, the index shows Tofthøj Gd. (Tofthøjgård /
Tofthøjgaard)
which is all the same. It shows the farm between two towns, Værslev &
Viskinde, in Viskinge Kommune
(Muncipality/Parish), Skippinge Herred (District), Holbæk Amt (County), West
Zealand, Dk.

My Grt.Grandparents farm "Oxemose Gd." is very, very close to this farm that
you are seeking info on.
My Grt.Grandfather was the Parish Baliff. THey lived in Aarby which is just
'down the highway' from
the above towns.

We will be visiting this area on Sept. 16., and going to the History
Association, and the Archives, while
there.

Ellen,
Ontario, Canada.
