There are 2, maybe 3 sources that follow the ancestors of Henrik Cristian Böijer (1683-1741).

1. geni.com, along with MyHeritage (Gunnar Netsman data, although it appears that he uses data from geni.com)

6. Also see my document, Bröijer from Adelsvapen Wiki, for some other links
7. Finland Church books
8. Swedish/Finnish "house of nobility"; https://www.riddarhuset.fi/english/



These weblinks, trace the family to the 1600's and earlier, and the geni.com link actually go back to the 1200's. It seems that at least one or two ancestors were born in Germany, were soldiers and ended up being stationed at Vyborg (Viborg or Virpurii) in Finland and now part of Russia.

The geni.com FT goes back to Bishop Paul Juunsten (also known as in Finnish: Piispa Paavali Pietarinpoika Juusten, Swedish: Biskop Påvel Pettersson Juusten, Latin: Episcopus Paulus Petri Iuusten);
Bishop at Viibourg, 1554-1563
born: about 1520 at Juustila, Viipuri, Finland;
Death: August 22, 1575 (51-59) - although there are other notes that record his death as 22 Aug 1576
Turku, Finland; Place of Burial:Turun tuomiokirkko, Turku, Finland
- the FT has numerous notes on the page, and has notes from various sources and websites, with some with an English translation and others written in Finnish
- some sources/websites state that Bishop Juunsten had been sent to Wittenberg, Germany in 1543 and was there about 3 years; he would have been present at the funeral of Martin Luther who died 18 Feb 1546 (at age 63, born in 1483); it is not clear if Bishop Juunsten was instructed by Martin Luther


It is difficult to determine accuracy of the above sources. Additionally, it is important to develop a basic understanding of Sweden and Finland history in order to put the source material into context. Due to a number of on-going projects, I am not able to devote the time necessary to do this research as of this date, and thus for the time being, I will be stopping at Henrik Cristian Böijer (1683-1741) and his family and one descendant, our direct line ancestor, Nils Jöran Bröijer.

** Welcome to Wiki at Adelsvapen.com
This is the genealogical part of Adelsvapen.com. In a Wiki, everyone can join and contribute with their knowledge and it is both easy and fun. Our hope is that many will write information from their own genealogy so that we can complement traditional sources together. We will try to add as much as possible to this Wiki. There are begun articles of the vast majority of Swedish nobility income, but the data must not be about nobility, on the other hand, we begin to work with genera that are linked to nobility and have heraldic weapons. We think Wiki technology fits like a glove for genealogy. One easily creates links to relatives or individuals. You can also click on "Discussion" for each article to leave messages or ask questions about that particular article.

Gyllensparre's parents, Nils Gyllensparre (1650-1710) and Sophia Rütenchrantz (1674-1752) were married in 1694 in Oviken parish; geni.com tree from above says that Nils Gyllensparre died in 1710 in Oviken, but he is not recorded to the related burial book 1706-1714

7. Oviken parish records:

bullet  Noted events in his life were:

1. Residence, 1726-1746, 1726-1746, Oviken, Jämtland län, Sweden. 8091 Farm/village: Side. Only Lieutenant Bröijer (spelled, Bröjer) and Marta (recorded as Martha) are recorded - no children are recorded on either page 105 or 285.

2. Death - 1741, Feb 1741, Oviken, Jämtland län, Sweden. 8091 Farm/vilage: Side. The Household Records (page 285) notes that Lieutenant Bröijer dod i Feb 1741. However, the death/burial records for 1741 (C:2, page 221) does not record this - the handwriting is difficult to read but there does not seem to be anyone around the age 57-59 (if he was born in 1683) recorded. Perhaps is died elsewhere on some patrol?
