This

tenant register

is part of a large group of cameral documents pertaining to the landed estates of

Nynäs

Vik

Kyllelä

and

Lahis

. These four estates were owned by

Anna Hogenskild

, widow of

Nils Pedersson Bielke

who was the head of the royal chamber until his death in

1550

. The bailiff in charge of the estates at this time was

Mats Olsson

(A copy of the letter assigning him as bailiff over the landed estates in Finland of

Anna Hogenskild

survives. The letter by

Nils Pedersson Bielke

is dated

5 November 1549

. See:

The financial records of

Nynäs

and related estates came to the Swedish Crown, and later the

Swedish National Archives

, when the possessions and archives of

Hogenskild Bielke

were confiscated following his execution in

1605

(see
