Kurki of Laukko : ウィキペディア英語版
Kurki of Laukko

The Kurki or Kurck family, also known as the family of Laukko, (other versions of the name: Korke, Kurki, Kurke) is a medievally-originated Finnish noble family that produced several historically prominent persons. It is documented in the late 14th century. The family is usually divided in several lineages as it continued through female succession.
Please observe that no one surnamed Kurki who lived in Finland after the 17th century is descended from this family through documentarily proven agnatic lineage. The surname is common in Finland, and has been used by several other former or current unrelated families.
The medieval Kurki family held the manor of ''Laukko'' at least since the 14th century, until the beginning of the 19th century.
A seal of a member of this family is known already from the early 15th century. It depicts a common crane, which is ''kurki'' in Finnish. However, the coat of arms of the family since the 15th century depicts a sword with three stars (lady Elin's coat of arms, and later confirmed in the 1st baron's coat of arms at the Swedish House of Nobility when the baronial rank was obtained in 1652).
In 1797 Arvid Fredrik Kurck (1735-1810) was created a Swedish count, but his branch went extinct.
==Original Kurki family of Tavastia==
According to folklore, an ancestor of the family Kurki was Matthew Kurki, a legendary chieftain of Pirkka men of the 13th century. Legendary material assign him as the first owner of Laukko. However, before the confiscation of ecclesiastical properties in the 16th century, kings and government did not have lands to grant to speak of, and therefore this idea, having received it from king as reward, in the folklore derives from more modern era. In Middle Ages, people owned usually just inherited lands and lands conquered or assarted by the clan. Landed properties were highly family-committed.
Laukko seems not to have been an immense landholding until made gradually such by the second Kurki family in the 15th century.
The location of the Matthew (''Mattis'') Kurki folklore as itself matches, because Laukko is located in Vesilahti, the historical Pirkkala area, where those folk legends are strongest.
There is a gap of a century between Mattis Kurki and the first documented Kurki, deputy lawspeaker ''Jakob Kurki'' (Jeppe, Jesper, Jaakko, Jacob) of the late 14th century, whose seat was the manor of ''Niemenpää'' in southern Tavastia.
