The first settlement in Korsnäs is assumed to stem from the 13th century. <ref> Johan Ulfvens: "Korsnäsbor och korsnäsbyar". In: '''Korsnäs historia'''. Korsnäs 1981, pp. 9-25, p. 16. </ref> Some place names indicate a Finnish-speaking presence in the 13th century, although it is disputed if these people (probably from [[Häme]]) only used the area for fishing on a seasonly basis <ref> Olov Ahlbäck: "Österbottnisk medeltid". In: '''Svenska Österbottens historia I'''. Vasa 1977, pp. 45-56. </ref> or if they established a proper, but sparse, settlement <ref> Lars Huldén: "Vad berättar ortnamnen om den svenska bosättningens uppkomst i Finland?" In: Ann-Marie Ivars and Lena Huldén [eds.]: '''När kom svenskarna till Finland?'''. Helsingfors 2002, pp. 63-80, p. 69 </ref>. Swedish-speaking settlers came to the area in the 13th or 14th century.
