The Alopaeus family (sometimes transliterated as Alopeus) is the name of a Russian noble family of Finnish ancestry, originating from Vyborg. Members of the family played an important political and ecclesiastical role in the history of Russia, Finland and Sweden. Some of them have fennicized the name to Kettunen[2] or Tuomas-Kettunen. They were ennobled in 1772 with the name Nordensvan, as part of the Swedish nobility. Later, the family was awarded with the title of Baron and Count in Russia.
