14 Children of Matts BJÖRKBACKA

While browsing HiskiProject this morning, I came across this information on my 5th great grandparent's children.

14 Children of Matts Mattsson BJÖRKBACKA
Right now is not a good time for me to start adding all these newfound relatives to my Legacy Family Tree, after all it is the day before Christmas Eve and there are things to do around the house.

The satisfying part of adding all these individuals to my family tree is recording their names, births, christening dates, and the village and farm they were born on. At that point of documenting what I can on their lives I have hopes that they all lived a long life, married, and had children.

Yet, I have learned not to get my hopes up, after all, in this period of Finnish history many of my ancestors had children that died in infancy.

I do see the 1732 births of children Mattz and Brita that were only four months apart. Hopefully I can find the church records online and clear that up.
