On the second page of the first ministerial book for Gunnilbo there is a CV for Stephanus E. Fernander, starting with his birth date and detailing his studies and career up to 1661. The handwriting - presumably his own - is very neat and quite different from the handwriting on the following pages. There is a note added after his death: he died 11 August 1681 and was buried in Falun.[1] He spent several years in the beginning of the 1660s in Gunnilbo, appearing frequently as christening witness,
There is a long note in the household record for widow Kerstin Halvardsdotter in Asplund, stating that there are notes in a postil found in the vicary to the effect that Kerstin Halvardsdotter was 19 years old when she married Erik Hansson, and that her daughter Walborg was born in 1625, which has been written down by her own son, the late Herr Staffan (that is, Stephan Fernander).[2]
