Dear Anti Poika and Kristina Gunnarsdotter,
Thank you so much for sharing your records, details, and translations. Umeå, Burträsk, Skellefteå, Björkenäs
Is there anyway to determine who the father was? I know that in Germany, the Catholic church sometimes held special meetings to determine the fathers of illegitimate children. Interesting about the fire in Skellefteå. I think it was a fire in Umeå that may have prompted my family to migrate?
The link to the page from the 1888-1893 household book is amazing. So much info. My grandfather was the baby of the family Sven Gunnar Björklund born in 1888. He always denied being born in Sweden. Unfortunately, I won't be able to show him this record, but I suppose he probably knew that he was really born in Umeå.
I hate to ask but there are notes on the page I cannot read. It looks like Maria Johanna went to "Arnas" not America? And I would like to understand Line 23?
