Jos joku tietää näitä nimiä, auta. Käännän viestin. Jos tämä on väärä sijainti, olen pahoillani.


Hei ystävät. Anna minulle anteeksi, että voin puhua vain englantia.


Vanhin esivanhempieni sukunimi muuttuu? Lopussa oleva kuva on peräisin Tornion rakennuksesta 1797. Uskon, että se liittyy esivanhempiini.



I am from Saskatchewan, Canada. My ancestors departed Finland for the United States of America and departed the USA for Canada. I have followed my family tree, but I would like any more information if possible. I have done extensive work, but I feel I may be missing more information. Here is what I know. I will omit the most modern ancestors.


-Peter Arvid Aarni - (Married Anna Alina Pihlaja)

24 Sep 1885 - Tornio, Lappi, Finland
13 May 1966 - Chisholm, St Louis, Minnesota, USA


-Johan Petter Aarni - (Married Ida Karolina Kattan)
4 Jun 1855 - Finland (Not sure on birthplace)
25 Oct 1932 - Otter Tail County, Minnesota, USA


===At this point in time records spell surname Arni or Aarni, I don't know why====


-Alexander Nilsson Arni - (Married Eva Caisa Abrahamsdotter Vuoti)
28 Nov 1824 - Unverified location of birth (Finland)

Unverified date of death (Finland)


-Nils Andersson Arni - (Married Greta Stina Mickelsdotter)
22 Oct 1791 - Unverified location of birth (Finland)
25 Nov 1860 - Unverified location of death (Finland)


-Anders Andersson Arni - (Married Stina Larsdotter)
1764 (unverified, but found in a document)
5 Mar 1824 - Unverified place of death


===In 1790 marriage document, Anders Andersson surname is Heikurainen, and Stina Larsdotter is Arni did he take Stina Larsdotter surname instead of Heikurainen?)


My confusion is mostly about Anders Andersson Arni (Heikurainen?)

Thank you. I do have that information, and have searched extensively using that website. I am unsure as to why the male surname changes? There is Arni, Esko, and possibly Heikurainen in information that I find.


Any idea why the surname would change?

In 1790 marriage document, Anders Andersson surname is Heikurainen, and Stina Larsdotter is Arni did he take Stina Larsdotter surname instead of Heikurainen?)


My confusion is mostly about Anders Andersson Arni (Heikurainen?)

From the Alatornio Communion Book 1791-1798 (http://digi.narc.fi/digi/view.ka?kuid=4851821) you can see, that the name Arni is the name of the house number 8 of the Påtan village. As Anders Andersson Heikurainen came to the farm to live, he took the name of the house (or people started to call him with name of the house). The name Heikurainen is a surname, that passed from father to children, as surnames passed in the rural East Finland. In the rural West, people were distinguished by the name of the house.

Thank you very much! That is what I had thought, but was unsure of. The oldest ancestor I have would then be:


-Anders Nilsson Heikurainen
2 Nov 1731 (Unsure where he was born, Unsure if dates are exact)

10 Mar 1793 Laivaniemi, Alartornio, Finland



Any clues to this ancestor? I can find a record in Sweden archives.

It seems that the name Heikurinen is in Alatornio also the name of a house, Björkö number 7. So it was not a surname, but somebody with surname Heikurinen from the Savo area has given his name to the house.

In the Swedish archive is the estate inventory (bouppteckning) after Anders Nilsson Heikurainen, who died on the 10th of March 1793. You have to pay to see it.

Here he is in Laivaniemi in the Alatornio Communion Book 1791-1798, marked död, dead.

Do you think the Swedish archive record would be worth looking at? I am not sure what type of information they recorded in these documents. I will have to research this.

For the next ancestor, the only information I can guess at is this:


Nils Andersson Heikurainen
1702 - Pirkkiö, Alatornio, Lappi, Suomi-Finland
14 Apr 1777 - Pirkkiö, Alatornio, Lappi, Suomi-Finland

Buried - 3 May 1777 Pirkkiö, Alatornio, Lappi, Suomi-Finland

I found this on another website. No sources listed. I have yet to research it.

In the service digihakemisto.appspot.com many of the online sources of the National Archive of Finland have catalogues built by the public. Much work has been done with Alatornio. See http://digihakemisto.appspot.com/index_am?atun=184266.KA&amnimeke=Alatornion+seurakunnan+arkisto

About older sources you could ask in the Lappi - Lappland area of this forum.

If your ancestors originate from Alatornio - Nedertorneå, they originate from the Västerbottens län (Western Botnia) of that time. Västerbottens län, and Norrbottens län separated from it 1810, are now part of Sweden. When the border between Russia and Sweden came to the Torneå river in 1809, Alatornio came to be part of the Österbottens län (Eastern Botnia), which is a part of Finland. So most of the documents prior to 1809 are in the Swedish archives of the Västerbottens län, for example census documents (mantalslängder).

You are probably correct. I believe they came from Tuvan, Skellefteå, Västerbottens, Sweden. I am still researching. :)
