Närpes is a Swedish-speaking parish near the western coast of Finland.I checked HisKi for the name Rack and found two names, but in the 1700s.It's possible that Rack is a shortened version of Rackolain, Rackola, Rackeman, Rackoi -and there are a number of parishes with those names - unfortunately there are few records after 1855.If the name was Back, that is a very common name and is found in many parishes - sometimes spelled Bäck or Beck.
