Terijoki/Sankt Petersburg

[Armand Dumont]

Hej !

Jag letar efter födelsebeviset till Kira HOLODILINE eller KHOLODILINE, född den 7 juli 1921 i Terijoki (Zelenogorsk), en finsk stad på den tiden men idag ryska (Sankt Petersburg). Hon var farfarsyster till en vänina.

Vet Ni vart man ska skriva för att begära detta bevis ?

Vem var hennes föräldrar ?

Tack på förhand.

Family - Holodilin Peter Nilson (Pyotr Nikolaevich) (1890-1922), mother Helena Petersdotter (Elena Petrovna o.s. Ivanova) (1893-1979), brother Ingvar (Igor) (1918-1987). Her father served in the Russian Imperial Army in the Northwestern Front, a participant in the counter-revolutionary movement. Warrant Officer. In December 1919, he was appointed chief of the sapper team of the 10th Krasnogorsk Infantry Regiment. In August 25, 1919 promoted to Second Lieutenant. The family emigrated to Belgium. Their graves are in Brussels. Kira was baptized in the Orthodox Church of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God.

I found it in the following links:

I'm not sure, but I'd start looking for more information in these sources

Hello Andreas,

These information are very interesting and helpful. I have just forwarded them to my friend. If she finds the birth certificate in Finnish we'll ask you for a translation.

Thank you very much indeed and have a nice day.

P.S. The Church records that you mention concern the previous century: 1818 till 1821 but Kira was born in 1921. Could you please try to find this period?

Hello Armand!

The magic will happen, if you click the outlined button at the bottom of the page.

You don't need 1921, especially since it's not there. And if there was such a book, then you wouldn't be able to see it, because 100 years have not passed yet. It's a tax book, and babies don't pay taxes. You need to look for parents, if they are there, of course. I think they should be there. Maybe I misunderstood the purpose and you only need a birth record, then I'm sorry. I won't help with the translation, because I speak only Russian and English with a dictionary. It'd be better to duplicate your message in the Finnish thread, because firstly these are Finnish records in the Finnish archive, and secondly it was Finnish territory since 1918 to 1940. Parents' names in Finnish may sound like Pietari or Pekka Nikonpoika and Leena Pietarintytär. Probably you shouldn't look for them in Finnish church books, because most likely they are Orthodox, but taxes are collected regardless of religion.

Thank you very much again Andreas.

We'll have a look at the tax books, but it's in Finnish and it's like seeking a needle in a haystack, as we say in French.

Have a nice evening!
