The only records i can find for Michel are the births of his children in 1806, 1809, 1810 and 1812, all with Maria Karp(pin).

Maria was born in 1780 so it seems reasonable to assume Michel was born around 1780 also. Maria's sister Margareta (born 1777) married Petter Hynnin (Pehr Hynyin) who was born in 1778.

All these records are from the village of Palois, it seems quite likely to me that Michel may have been a younger brother of Petter born between 1782 and 1785.
