“Nils Laican, born c. 1664, married Maria Gästenberg c. 1687. She was a daughter of Olle Nilsson alias Gästenberg. During his father’s lifetime he had been given 300 acres, including “Poor Island.” In 1711 he also purchased a corn grist mill on Red Clay Creek in New Castle County, 294 acres, half of which he gave to his daughter Christina after she married Justa Justis, Jr., of Kingsessing, and the other half of which was sold after his death to his daughter Brita when she married John Seeds of New Castle County. Nils Laican was an active member of Gloria Dei until his death on 4 December 1721. He was survived by seven daughters: Christina, who married Justa Justis, Jr.; Gertrude, who married Edward Hatfield in 1714; Anna, who married John Rambo, Jr., son of John Rambo and Brigitta Cock of Gloucester County, NJ; Elisabeth, who married (1) Fred Geörgen by 1718 and (2) Måns Jonasson Keen in 1722; Brita, who married (1) John Seeds in 1722 and (2) Thomas Milner; Susannah (not traced); and Maria, who married Hans Ericsson Keen.” (Nils Andersson and His Lykins Descendants, Dr.Peter Stebbins Craig, Historian Swedish Colony Society, Internet)
