Research by Wayne Ohlsson:
Wayne Ohlsson writes on Memorial Day, May 25, 2020: "A distant cousin who is/was writing a book about Joakim von Rohr claims he was never in Poltava. Joachim von Rohr was major at Viborgs fort in the east of Finland. He lived there with his family. In about 1710 the Russians came and seiged the whole town of Viborg and the fort. They captured Joachim, his wife Anna Charlotta Klingenberg and their 4 children. Anna Elisabet, 18 years was the oldest. The Russians took them all the family to Siberia. It was not easy for them and I have seen a letter in which Joachim himself tells that they got some help from ”the rich baron Struganof”. [Anna Elisabeth Örbom was buried at] Humpis, Nådendal, Åbo/Turku, Finland ... Her father could not have been at the Battle of Poltava when he was commander of the fort at Viborg"
