Biography

Research Notes

Name and birth date changed to reflect the original baptism record. Death date removed as unknown. Niskakoski-1 11:42, 17 July 2018 (UTC)

The birth date is estimated to be in 1740 because his father's son has been baptized on May 22, 1743 at the age of 3 ^[1]. The death date is estimated to be in 1744 because his father has a son (or two) who has died in 1744 at the age of 3 ^[2].

Johan Pöysti may be this person's twin brother because they have been estimated to be born the same year ^[3]. They may also be the same person.

The death book does not contain either of the two transcripts that have been used to create Johan and his unknown brother.

• Pyhäjärvi (Viipuri) death records 1721-1750
  • Hiski transcript
  • Hiski transcript

Birth book contains a clear baptism oj Johan Pöystis son Johan 16 Mar 1740.

• Pyhäjärvi (Viipuri) birth records 1721-1750
  • Hiski transcript

The baptism 22 May 1743 shows a very faint line at the top of the right hand page where Lahnawalkama Johan Pöysti can be read and something that can be seen as Anders which could make sense as Johans father Anders had just died.

• Pyhäjärvi birth records 1721-1750
  • Hiski transcript (incorrect??)
