Hello i´m trying to find some information about my grandfathers father on my fathers side.
His name was Herman Johansson Ahonen and from deathrecords i have found that he was born in 1870 on the 18th of June in Urais församling, Borgå stift, Koupio. He probably came to Sweden via Haparanda, but i don´t know when. There is a daughter, Anna, born in September 1902, no father recorded. He married Anna-Lisa Johansdotter Holma from Jukkasjärvi in 1903 on the 10th of may.
Herman died of drowning in 1908 when my grandfather, Ilmar, was just over a year old, there is also a daughter, Ester, born in 1904.
I´ll be greateful for any help i can get.
Peter
