    1. [MIHOUGHT] Kargela from Kemi, Finland
    2. Connie: I go to the Redford Twp. ice rink on Wednesdays to skate and have coffee with a group of Yoopers, mostly from the Calumet area. One of them is William, ( Irv.) Kargela. He told me that Jacob and Kaisa Kargela were his grandparents. He also told me: He thought that Jacob immigrated to this country in 1888 The name on the grave marker for Jacob is Karkela, and his kids changed the k to a g, making it Kargela. Mamie Kargela and John Rowe were Dr. Ken Rowe's parents. Jacob and Kaisa had sons called Hjalmer, Eino, William (Irv's dad),Abiel (called Bob), and Edward, also daughters Ina and Mae. Ernie
