Rikhard Laiho along with Dr Rudolph Pinola's work has been put into a database. It is a list of Finnish American's lured back to Soviet Karelia. Finland lost (ceded) part of Karelia to Russia after the war. Mr. Laiho has been kind enough to tell us to spread the list to those who ask. It has 1,585 names of people. Some were executed and others never got to come back to America or return to Finland. If any of you have missing Finnish family, they may be among this list. There are many Minnesota names on it. I can send it to those who ask, it is in a Microsoft works format. Alicia Marshall alicia@chartermi.net ------------------------------- Houghton Co. MIGenWeb http://www.mfhn.com/houghton
