Dear Sirs,
In this connexion I would be obliged to get information about the origin of
my grandmother's father, who immigrated into Finland about in the year 1850,
when he was married in Viipuri. His name was firstly registered in the
Finnish evangelical parish register in the form of " Bogumil Mallas or
Bogomil Malas". Later on the name was registered as " Johan Gottlieb Malas".
There is no other information available except that he " came from Poland".
I have only found out by internet that in Nikolaiken in Sensburg there was
a family Bogumil in the beginning of nineteenth century, but the origin of
the name "Malas" I have not found.
Yours sincerely,
