Henrich Henrichsson Pöyskö (Cal 2 Jan 1724-3 Dec 1795) and Elin Markusdotter Leskelä (17 Nov 1721-29 Apr 1796) are two of my 5th great grandparents, and their daughter Lisa ( 23 Feb 1751-11 Dec 1805) is my 4th great grandfather. The lived in Ylikiiminki, Finland. I have had them in my list of ancestors for a while now, and tonight I decided to investigate HisKi project on this family group to see if Lisa had any brothers and sisters.
Nice! I discovered Lisa had seven siblings (with a couple more that probably are siblings). The seven I felt confident in adding to my list of blood relatives were all born in Ylikiiminki, Finland,between the years of 1753 and 1766.
It takes a while for me to put seven more family members into my Legacy family tree software, so I only set tonight's goal at inputting their names, birth dates, christening dates, religion, and farm residence at time of their birth.
I am really hoping that all these newfound relatives lived long lives, married, and had children.
