*1.2.1734 2.2.1734 Henrick Oja Carin Thomas (Record from Hiski)

I am trying to verify some last names. I have a Thomas Junckara born 1.2.1734 born Junckara, Rovaniemi, Finland according to Hiski. His and his family have the last name of Junckara, but then his father, according to Hiski, has the name Oja. I'm not sure what Carin's last name is. Could you please check birth records for Thomas to see if you can determine his father's last name AND his mother Carin's last name. I tried Sukuhistoria but you know us Americans, we can't read some of that, and if we do, we can't verify it.
Thank you for your help.

No last name found for Carin. She's just Carin Thomasdotter.

Junckara and Oja are alternatively used. Oja means ditch and also brook.
The farm of Junkkara/Oja was located by such a small waterway that the alternate name is very understandable.

I have offered you privately the possibility that you get answers from me in a single report.
It seems that you prefer going through all the steps by yourself, but alas, you need others anyway.

Thank you Hermo and Timotk for your help in my request. I appreciate the effort you took to help me.

It is possible that Carin Thomasdaughter is Raappana.
Her father Thomas Raappana died 1714-1716. Her mother Margareta Pehrsdr Rautajoki married with Carl Witikka.
* 18.8.1717 Carl Wuoticka ? Margeta Pehrs dr. Rautajoki

Carin Raappana was born perhaps
*20.12.1713 25.12.1713 Thomas Rappana Margeta Carin

Carl Witikka-Raappana and Margareta Rautajoki had many children (Hiski).
