- Norra and Södra Röjdåsen began to be built at the same time in 1644 and each was taxed for a quarter of a home six years later. In Norra Röjdåsen, Clemet Eriksson Purainen had settled ... he was probably the brother of Erik Eriksson Purainen, who a few years later took up the Röjdoset ....
- Clemet Purainen, who occupied Norra Röjdåsen, was succeeded in 1653 by his son Tomas [Klemetsson] Purainen, who was its owner until about the year 1670. At this point, the genus Purainen seems to have disappeared from there and in the following decade, one encounters for the home man's registered name as Sigfrid Häck (Häkkinen), Erik Haljainen and Mattes Sikainen, the latter apparently belonging to the genus that contained Södra Röjdåsen.

page 115,
In the same year [1647-49] as Tväråna, the Röjdoset (Purastorp) was occupied by Erik Eriksson Purainen, who moved in from Gästrikland * and possibly brother of the first settler in Norra Röjdåsen.
* Gästrikland is a historical province or landskap on the eastern coast of Sweden. It borders Uppland, Västmanland, Dalarna, Hälsingland and the Gulf of Bothnia. Gästrikland is the southernmost of the Norrland provinces. Other used forms of the name are Gestricia and Gastrikland
