Since Finnish was not an official language in Finland until 1863, most records were written in Swedish. To do research in these records, you will need to know some Swedish and Finnish key words and phrases. Also, remember that Orthodox church records were written in Russian until after Finnish independence. Recently the Same language (Lappish) has also become an official language in Finland. | Since Finnish was not an official language in Finland until 1863, most records were written in Swedish.
