Biography

Sofia was born on 21 Sep 1863 in Riispyy (Swedish: Risby), Merikarvia, Finland (Suomi) to Frans Henrik Andersson and Wilhelimina Henriksdotter[1][2]. She passed away about 1950.

Research notes

  • Looked on FamilySearch for LNAB
  • Searched Ancestry. Could not find suitable record
  • Update 25 Aug 2023: Her farm name at birth is not mentioned in her christening record. It would be confusing to use her patronymic from the christening record (Fransdotter) as LNAB, since the 1874-1883 Rippikirja (sorry, behind a paywall) has Henrik underlined for her father's name, suggesting he went by Henrik. In the 1894-1903 Rippikirja she is listed as Sofia Heikintytär Rajamäki.

Hi Hannu,

I have checked for sources and not been able to find the last name at birth (LNAB) for this profile. If you have learned the LNAB please add it to the profile, if not could you take a moment and change the LNAB birth to Unknown please.

We are working hard to reduce the number of “Not known” profiles on Wikitree. The standard usage on Wikitree is Unknown; see details below to clarify why this is important. This profile is a case in point.

This was posted recently on our G2G forum by the Unknowns project: "When profiles have the surname Unknown, they will show up in searches where a married name is searched, but there are profiles where the surname is not known. In other words, if you have "Elizabeth (Unknown) Martin," and you search for "Elizabeth Martin," profiles for Elizabeth Unknown are included in the search, whereas profiles for "Elizabeth “Not known” are not."

We really appreciate your contributions to our global tree, and hope you will be able to collaborate with us on this profile. If you manage multiple “Not known” profiles, I am happy to work with you to update each one. Just let me know :)

Thank you.
