A clearly structured tenant register concerning the possessions of Anna Clemetsdotter Hogenskild in Finland, namely Nynäs, Vik, Kyllelä, and Lahis estates. The register is part of a large group of financial records from the 16th century pertaining to these estates.

The financial records of Nynäs and related estates came to the Swedish Crown, and later the Swedish National Archives, when the possessions and archives of Hogenskild Bielke were confiscated following his execution in 1605 (see Introduction to these descriptions).
