Antti Mulikka

"Antti Mulikka established his farm Riekko on the coast of Karankajärvi-lake in the Middle of Finland in 1564. The place is still called as Mulikka after his name. The original size of his land was about 25.000 acres (10.000 hectars), which has been divided to several smaller farms during the next 450 years.

He had four sons: Paavo, Nuutti, Matti and Juho.

Paavo remained in his father’s house Riekko (and inherited the farm in 1600). His descendants have been partly documented in five Keisari family books, which include about 100 000 names. The farm Riekko has changed its name to Mietala and the original farmhouse has been removed. Mietala farm belongs to day to descendants of Antti Mulikka.

His second son Nuutti established his own farm Leppälä, whích a part from Riekko. Leppälä was named as Hokkala later, when the former soldier Juho Wik and his wife Leena Tjeder moved there and one of his sons was Heikki, who built the new two floor house on the top of Mulikka hill.

His third son was Tapani (Steffen) who moved the Sweden near Orsa. His descendants moved to Grue Finnskog in Norway. Their house was on the southern coast of Rödgen lake in Vålberget, which was also called as Mulikkala.

The fourth son Juho moved to Sweden. One of Juho's sons was Paavo "Pål" Mullica, who moved to New Sweden in Delaware. His son Eric moved to new Jersey side, where still today is a Mullica River and Mullica Township, which were named after him. Eric had three sons, William (Olavi), Eric (Erkki) and John (Juho), who established a village, Mullica Hill in New Jersey. William's and Eric's houses can still be seen in Mullica Hill today. "
