Carl Nieroth

The exact date and location of his birth are unknown, but believed to be in Finland.

He was a son of the Baltic German Otto Nieroth and Gertrud Baranoff.

He assembled 10,000 men, who besieged the city in 1711 but lacked equipment to enter it, and had to retreat.

He died suddenly during a temporary halt in Sarvlax manor (Finnish: Sarvilahti) in Pernå parish, on 25 January 1712.

He was married on 7 January 1686 in Stockholm to Christina Margareta Horn (d. 17 September 1703).
