Gideå Church

History[edit | edit source]

Gideå was created in 1807 as a chapelry to Arnäs parish and in 1811 became an annex parish. In 1872, the Trehörningsjö parish was created from part of Gideå. From the beginning of 1885, portions of the villages of Djuptjärn, Grundsjön, Herrbergsliden, Högbrännan, Kantsjö, Karlsviken, Lemesjö, Lomviken, Långvattnet, Nordsjö (from 1865) and Önskanäset were moved to the Trehörningsjö parish. In 1886, the homestead Eldsmark No. 1 (or Västra Eldsmark) was moved from Arnä to the Gideå parish.
