I suggest you go tohttp://www.genealogia.fihttp://www.genealogia.fi The page comes up in Finnish but there is a connection to English. It is run by the Finnish Genealogy Society.

This system was used all over Scandinavia in the old days. Johnson = Johan's son. A good web sight that explains this is http://members.aol.com/dssaari/index.htmhttp://members.aol.com/dssaari/index.htm
