'Name of Ship' needed

[jamcat95]

You're welcome...

I must say that this does look to be the right family, so I really hope it is....

1848 - Carl Eriksson Rank and Greta Hansdotter Ryss - Marriage: http://digi.narc.fi/digi/view.ka?kuid=9029742

1848 - Carl Eriksson census with brother at top and father at bottom: http://digi.narc.fi/digi/view.ka?kuid=9027651

..... a rellie interstate who I have just found via 'detective' work and his bit of news is that Erik may have changed his name...that Nyholm was not actually the name he was born under, but that it was 'RYSS'...but then it got changed again before he came out on the ship to 'RANK'...so he's listed on a ship under the name of 'RANK'.

Hi Julie
Can you tell me where this info came from please.

This is all I can find for now.

This could be Johan Forsström:
This Johan was born 5 March 1862 in Nykarleby.

Been doing some digging:


Here is a police report  Jan 20 1873 of a Forstrom and A. Wick being fined for being absent without leave on the Weidenhielm in 1873:

These were 2 of the men that jumped ship with Erik Nyholm later on in June.

Hi Ian,

All I can say is WOW!!  
What you have posted gets even more amazing.  Sorry I won't have time to keep looking more deeply at it all today or tomorrow as I'll be spending the time with my 2nd cousin and her husband.

I have looked in Trove for articles but obviously not as well as you have.  It is such a great site.  I did have a quick look at the links you showed in the last post but need to do more.  The Weidenhielm was a beautiful ship.

Need now to look more closely at all of your recent finds. 
Thank you so much for all you have done for us.
Catch you again as soon as I can,
Marlene

No worries, I'll just keep digging.

Hi again,
Couldn't help myself - had a better look at the Trove one on Bible Christian Church headed Rechabitism.  Before my parents were married, my Mother was very much involved with the Independant Order of Rechabites (which I'm assuming was the name they carried on with after 1887) as were more of her family and her Mum's family.  Don't know if this type of organised existed in Finland but Lodges were quite big in Australia it seems.  Can't wait to mention this to a guest speaker we have coming for a family history seminar later in the month as her family were also involved with the Rechabites and she has looked more into it than I have. 
Can't wait to get back to this ... but really must get organised.

Hi Marlene
I had never heard of the Rechabites. I have at least learnt something new this weekend...interesting.


I think I have exhausted all avenues on Trove. There are of course many births, deaths and marriages etc, but I think you have all them. But I did find his probate in the newspaper:
