Description

The school children from Björkö row across Mossala strait to school. An interesting picture.

Miscellaneous

Comment from Kristiina Reilä: My mother Lea Siitonen is in the picture with the children. Her mother was Sylvi Nilsson, née Lindgren, born in  Björkö 1911 and moved to Turku in the 1930s marrying Harry Nilssonin. Sylvi Lindgren's mother was Mari Lindgren and her siblings were Helmi, Einar and Martin. In the front row: Birger Fagerlund and Rosita Fagerlund; in the second row: Lea Siitonen, née Nilsson, Gretel Fagerlund and Bernice Johansson. Third row from the left Herbert Lindqvist and an unknown person. Standing left is Bjarne Fagerlund and Oswald? My mother lived with her mother and sisters in Björkö during the war and went to school in Mossala, from time to time.
