Sillerud is a parish in Årjäng Municipality, western Värmland, and partly in Dalsland, Sweden, with a population of approximately 110.
[1] It is believed that Måns Andersson, an ancestor of the Bush family, was from Sillerud, because he named his farm in North America Silleryd.
Place names with "-ryd" endings, however, are uncommon in Värmland but more common in South Sweden, particularly in Småland.
Sill is the Swedish word for herring and rud/ryd means a small deforested area.
