Hi Jean, Here is from the 1920 census.This is from the whole state of Michigan To type the dots over an "o" like this, ö , on your keyboard when you get to the o, hold down your alt key, and on your keypad on the right side, type in the numbers 0246. The ö appears .With a little practice it gets easier. Type in his name on your web browser and you will get many hits.

There is a lot of information there on Capt. William Newcombe who was from Devon coming to the Copper Country in 1852 with his family. William Newcombes married a Pryor Daughter of Capt. Joseph and Elizabetrh Pryor of Horrabridge Devon. They are originally Cornish. John Siller of Ann Arbor, Mich is the most knowledgeable peerson on Capt Newcombe as he is a gggrandson. Yes one of thier daughters Emma married Edward Siller in 1859 or 1860 in Houghton, Michigan. Look into the 1860 census. All of them are buried in the Houghton cemetery.

Hi, The Institute of Migration in Finland now has a new feature.It has a search on it for reference records from the Kirkollinen Kalenteri (Church calendar) books.click on emigrant register. Alicia

Hi Pat, I have Rev.Ilmonens book and i took a look at what he wrote.The Blansfarti name could not be found ANYWHERE on my sites.No such name exists anywhere. I was puzzled as i have not found any misiformation on his writings yet. I looked in Sweden, Finland and nothing. Using the family seach site after a bit of "finnagling" i found a marriage for them in Haaparanda Sweden which is the border town with Lapland Finland. One thing i have learned is when i search for names in Norway or Sweden they have a way of changing the spelling.I posted below thier marriage. by the way, Haparanda Sweden and Tornio, Finland may be changing their name to "Eurocity".One of the worst names i have ever heard!It reminds me too much of the electronic "Europop" music. Karunki parish records only go up to the early 1800's right now on Hiski. They have updates at regular intervals. http://www.genealogia.fi/indexe.htm Alicia ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- EMMA KRISTINA BLANKSVARD Female Family ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- Event(s): Birth: Christening: Death: Burial: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- Marriages: Spouse: ISAK SALOMONSSON KORVI Family Marriage: 05 MAR 1871 Karl Gustav, Norrbotten, Sweden This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list.
