I think the second record above is very good -- second from the bottom on the list is Henrich's future first wife Elin as a 17 year old. I'm not sure about the birth dates being changed for the same person, they seem to be too different for just an entry error by the priest. I haven't come across th...

That's helpful information that he was local -- I thought he might be from another Parish and just moved to Säkylä to join the military. He does stay in the military for the rest of his life and dies 22 April 1806 in Säkylä after having been married twice (church records are very good for this time ...

Trying to find out more information about Henrich who served as a soldier in Säkylä. I can't translate his military paper and don't know what his name was before he became a Rehn. https://www.sukuhistoria.fi/sshy/sivut/jasenille/paikat.php?bid=15920&pnum=23 He remained a soldier at Kirri Dragon and ...

Your explanation makes very good sense. I have been able to find the marriage of Eric Stephansson and Anna Andersdotter in Köyliö : https://www.sukuhistoria.fi/sshy/sivut_eng/jasenille/paikat.php?bid=14652&pnum=21 But when I look for Anna's birth 25 May 1737 she doesn't show up in Köyliö - the Movin...

Thanks for the clarification -- I'm used to seeing the "Testes" for the witnesses and it wasn't there. Must be more common in later records. I mis-translated Fadder to English "Father", my mistake. Because the son was left with his father while Justina went to be a wet nurse, I thought he might have...

Wow -- this is amazing! A treasure trove of information. Many questions, but it looks like they actually name the father of the illegitimate child Petter on the birth record? It looks like "Johann Graulsson (??) Tuohiniemi" -- is this correct? I've come across the last name before. Justina was 26 at...

Thank you for the link to the birth record for Johanna Vilhelmina very appreciated. I didn't understand that the name Corell was the designation for being a shoemaker. I did pick that up in the record with skomakaren next to his name, but I didn't know that that would mean his surname should be Core...

Is it possible for someone to verify that I have the correct lineage for Johanna Vilhelmina Corell as I've just come across another Family Tree that has Johan Michelsson Corell 26 Sept 1791 as the son of a Carl Corell 1745-1846 and Anna Tuurila 1747-1812. It would explain the name Corell which my re...

Thank you, the surname changes are difficult to figure out. There are many Corell's in the Eura area so I was expecting to find a Corell farm. I thought he might have married into the Corell family and taken their name. I'm now searching for his wife's family, Justina Erkintytär 15 Sept 1780 from Kj...

Great information -- and that Tree in geni.com adds so much to my Tree. Odd that my branch has no one added under it, and that Johan Michelsson Ojala changed his name to Corell (seemingly out of the blue) and carried on from there. I was searching for Corell names which was a dead end. Now to resear...

I've been trying to find the parents of Johan Corell 26 Sept 1791 and have hit a dead end. I can find him in Eura with his wife and second child on the Nummi Torp: https://www.sukuhistoria.fi/sshy/sivut_eng/jasenille/paikat.php?bid=23229&pnum=141 And also earlier with his wife and first child Michel...

So much great information to research! Yes, the constantly changing last name is extremely difficult to follow, as people sometimes don't change their name, or only go by their first two names, or sometimes have names that have nothing to do with the farm/croft where they move to. Challenging. I did...

Found him - it's a farm called Kapellans bohl and he stays there until 1847 https://www.sukuhistoria.fi/sshy/sivut_eng/jasenille/paikat.php?bid=27474&pnum=201 When he leaves for someplace called Prestgärden (I think) Interestingly Johanna was at Kapellans bohl as well but earlier in 1840-41 and she ...

I'm trying to fill in the what happened the years 1845 to 1849 for Wilhelm Mosisson to see if I can find out how he did meet Johanna, now that I know he didn't work on her "farm". In 1840 he can be found on the Pelli farm as a Drengen: https://www.sukuhistoria.fi/sshy/sivut_eng/jasenille/paikat.php?...

This is such amazing information and fills in many of the pieces. I had assumed Johanna had married Juho Stenberg because he had a farm, thanks for clearing this up. He did have a piece of land given to him by his first wife's father -- a Mikola -- but this must not have been his to keep after her d...
