That was very interesting. I especially found the usage of the word how it grew in the 1700's then declined and went back up and down since 2008 and perhaps even less for 2018. It's a word that is not used in conversation these days except perhaps in some religious communities. You learn something n...

That was a great historical lesson. I have never heard cantor used without it being part of the Jewish faith. I'll have to add this to my family book.
Thank you very much

Kimputa Thank you for getting back to me so quickly. I often wondered about the Jewish/Lutheran couples and since I can find -in most cases-the names in communion books then I would assume the Jewish spouse has converted the Lutheran. Knowing about the cities in Sweden where the Jewish people had to...

I have an ancestor that I believe may be Jewish and she married a Christian would there be an entry made in the communion books which I assume would be Christian and then would there be entries made in a Jewish book on behalf of the spouse. My previous post I am questioning a 4x's great grandmother ...

I am having trouble translating the abreviations that are entered for Erick (Groom) and Carin (Bride). I'm thinking that the abbreviations for Carin say that she is a Cantor's dtr? In Histormi.Net it states that KL is Klockare and Carin lives on a farm called Klockare, Paltamo . They were married 26...

I kind of thought that about Reväsin. Best to think of it as 'unknown cause'. It is what it is.
Thank you so much for getting back to me about this puzzling word. You never know what will be found when you are researching.
Thanks again

I could see why you don't want to translate that. Luckily I have google chrome translate and one click of the mouse and it switched to English. Can it be considered among these conditions: Acid reflux or heart disease. It seems a diet low in fat is advised. Could it be diabetes? I found mention of a...

I had an ancestor that died of the above cause. She was 61 years old. Can you translate.
Here is the link to her death entry: http://www.sukuhistoria.fi/sshy/sivut_e ... 03&pnum=16
She died 03 Jun 1868 and her entry is the 6th line down as Ingrid Mustonen
Thank You

Thank You Marinka for getting back to me. You were able to get me some great information that will help me build a better record for Carin and her daughter.
Thanks again, I appreciate your help.

Is somebody able to translate the names on this birth entry. I have included the link to the original document and I have added the entry to this screen.

Thank you for getting back to me on this. I appreciate you looking into it.

Jaska, I was looking at my posts and found one among them that is not mine - this one. It's from laaja. Thought you should know in case they are waiting for an answer. Here is what my screen looks like

Ullrika was born illegimate and her birth entry does not show a father. I have listed below the link of the original entry of her birth and it shows her mother Carin Gustavi Leinotar. Could you please try to list the names under the mother and tell me their relationship to Carin and Ulrika. I have n...

Thank you, Jani, for your quick reply. When I looked t.s. up in the Historismi.net under abbreviations I could not find much. A t and an s have so many meanings that it's impossible to come up with a correct answer.
Thanks again, I appreciate your help.

In 2013 I asked for information regarding Johan and Maria Kähkönen move. The post is below and this link was sent to me: http://www.sukuhistoria.fi/sshy/sivut/jasenille/paikat.php?bid=4086&pnum=86 I have a new question regarding their daughter noted in the communion book entry (above link). I found ...
