Research
According to the web page noted below, Elna's father was Nils GUMMESSON and her mother was Pernilla MASSDOTTER. It is not known how this was determined, given that there are no birth records for Mjellby prior to 1723. Maybe she was born elsewhere?

Misc. Notes
Credit for identifying some of Michel's family members and descendants goes to the "Listerlandet - Listerslægten" web site located at
http://www.swe-gen.se/Solvesborg/Listerslakten_3/index.htm
(Note: the content of that web site is written in Danish).
Research
So far I have documented 66 male descendants of Michel who would have inherited his Y-DNA. Of those 66, only 31 were born in Sweden. But I haven't identified all Y-DNA descendants of those 31 males (the number is smaller if you eliminate ones who died young). I also have no records of any possible brothers of Michel. My understanding is that birth records for Mjällby parish do not exist prior to 1723 (the birth year of Michel is inferred from his age at death).
