I have another questionable birth registry that I would appreciate a translation. We are questioning the parentage and are not sure who his birth parents are. Will you please take a look at the names on this entry. He was born on 26 Mar 1898 in Simo, Lappi.
Thank you so much
Janice

The links don't help me since I am unfamiliar with Finnish names and language. All I need is to have the translation of this birth registry and what the letters before the names mean.
Thank You so much.
Janice

Thank you all for your help. Looking at the older handwriting, that is smudged also, I have a terrible time making out the names. You are all so good at what you do and I thank you for all your work. I'll be back, still not done with my father's linneage.
