Translation to English
from the short genealogical research of the Kock-Holms family
made by Runar Hagberg (Monika Holms´ uncle) in August 2002:
To Holms farm Rnr 3 in Rökiö came 1875 a new farmer to a part of the 1½ assessment unit of land (mantalshemman). The farmer came from Kvevlax but he was born in Karvat on the Kock farm Rnr 6.

Johan`s and Anna-Lisa`s 1. and 2. Brita, 16.7.1848 from the first marriage and Lisa 4.1.1851 from from the second marriage probably stayed in Kvevlax when the family moved to Vörå.

Child: Greta Lovisa, born 4.11.1887.
The family emigrated to America 1899, but Anna and Greta Lovisa returned to Finland. Johan Johansson Klärk, born 14.3.1868, died in America 17.1.1901.
Johan Johansson the younger, born 14.1.1847, and his family became the last farmers on Holms farm Rnr 3 in Rökiö, Vörå. Holms farm had been owned by priests, county policemen, officers and other public official persons during hundreds of years. It is probably one of the oldest houses in the parish.
The family sold the farm to a foundation that became Vörå Folkhögskola. The family members moved out to other places most of them went to America. Probably there live hundreds of descendants today. There are a lot of work for a genealogist. Most of the members of the Kock family used the name Holms except those, who settled to other farms for instans Karvat Kock.
The farmer at the Kock farm in Karvat Rnr 6 moved with his family to Kvevlax 6.1.1861. Probably did Johan still own the farm in Karvat, because 1863 his oldest son Simon was the new farmer at the farm in Karvat.
