I found this new database yesterdayat Ancestry. It about floored me. You can search so many various ways with it, if you type in where born, such
as Kemi or even Calumet Michigan you get lists up.. Some also have passport photos.

The oddest one so far, is this one born in Alabama Finland. A look at the application is Alaharma. I have been doing
