Kathy: Yes, you're right, it's Danish, no doubt. I am quite sure that the
names following "Bosholm" are names for the parishes and towns in Denmark
associated with "Bosholm". Brede is the name of a parish in the south-west
corner of South Jutland in Denmark, and Tonder and Hojer are two of the towns
in that area that I am familiar with, having visited there in the past. I'm not
sure about Lo, but I suppose that it is also a small town located somewhere in
that general area also.
Finally, no, I had never heard of the the Bosholm before.
