Since my post I found Charles and Alita (KYRO) RAUVALA in the 1930 and 1920 census. The Haikio family has since remembered his name. They knew their children's names but I didn't want to post too current info to the board. I was interested in trying to figure out the KYRO connections. If you want contact me directly at carynthia@aol.com, I will be glad to sent you what information I have collected.

Hi, All I have are the names on that list, was hoping others might know who some of them are. They are from my Great great Aunt Mary McRaes Wedding Book. She was married to William J. Dawe on July 9, 1913. She later divorced him, although I don't know what year, they had no children. LeRoy W. Dawe is listed as a witness, but don't know how he was related. On the Houghton Michigan web site, there is a cemetary called Lakeview where my ancestors are buried and they have these Dawes listed as buried there, Henry Dawe, Son, born 1877, death 1941 Jane Dawe, Mother, born 1858 death 1929 William Dawe, Father, born 1852, died 1902 Sorry, but that is all I have, I couldn't find them on the 1880 census, but will keep looking. Do you know anything about these familys? Laurel
Yes, My great great Aunt Mary McRae was married to a Dawe, I'll see what info I have and get back to you. Thanks for contacting me! Laurel
