Thank you, Alicia. I do have that. I'm hoping to find someone who may be related who could confirm his mother's name and tell me more of the family. On his DC she is listed as Stina Liisa rather than Stina Kaisa and on her DC there is no birthdate to help confirm and there are no relatives listed.

Most if not all of this info is at the Mich Tech University library. Not many of them left there but all of the work, business and immigration records are there. My grandmother and grandfather were both torreano's. My grandmother(Johanna) came from San Martino but we do not know the village where my grandfather came from. I have a cousin in Oregon who has done a lot of history on our family. He has all of the detailed info. Any way I can help, let me know. f_torreano@yahoo.com

Re: Slovenian Immigrants to Red Jacket

shlomarosenberg — 2009-10-25 14:44:18Z

Here is something I posted elsewhere ... although it doesn't directly answer your question, it might provide some interesting tidbits ...

Hello,

I am descended from John and Fannie (Frances/Francesca) Sunich. Their daughter Frances had a daughter Oresa who had a son Clayton who is my father. This is what I know of their heritage:

John Sunich (Zunich) was an Austrian Catholic who married Fannie Graylick/Graylich who was a Jewish girl from a small village in the area near Austria now known as Slovenia. Fannie converted to Catholicism and completely abandoned the practice of Judaism. As far as I know, the only daughter who knew of this was Frances, who told my grandmother. Most of the children were devout Catholics and the girls remained active in the Slovenian Society (I don't know if that is exactly what it is called). My grandmother married a Jewish man although they were never particularly active in any faith. As far as I know, I am the only actively (religiously) Jewish descendant of theirs, as my father married a Jewish woman.

I never knew they had 11 children ... I know of 8 -- Ann (whose name was actually Clarice Anna), Sophie (Sophia), Gayla (atually Angelica), Pauline, Frances (Francesca Johanna)- who was my great-grandmother, Mary (who had MS and died possibly of Scarlet Fever), another deceased boy whose name I don't know, and John Jr. I know a few of their childrens' names ... Oresa, Richard, and Ed.

I can't imagine there being another John and Fannie Sunich in Calumet, so this must be them. I would love to hear what you know. If possible, could you let me know? You're welcome to post it here or email me directly.

Shalom,
Shloma Rosenberg

PS You may be interested to know that Frances Jr.'s daughter married the 1st cousin of Julius Rosenberg, who, together with his wife Ethel Rosenberg, was executed as an "atomic spy" by the US Gov't in 1953, although Ethel's brother admitted he was actually the guilty party on "60 Minutes" a few years ago.

Re: National Lutheran Church records booklet

familynames1 — 2009-10-17 08:00:45Z

I am in on the tail end of this dialogue, forgive me. I attended Sunday school at the Norwegian Lutheran Church on 7th Street in Calument in the late 1950s, early 1960s with Eric Opland. Eric was a year or two older than I was, thus his birth would have been 1951 or 1952. My mother was acquainted with Eric's mother. My older sister still resides in the area and is quite familiar with the church, its records and its early members. You may email me privately with your request. I will forward your request on to my sister. family.names@gmail.com. Gary

Re: National Lutheran Church records booklet

I meant to say Calumet not Laurium. I think that the Norwegians belonged to the one on 7th street.

Re: Couture and Fisher

drcoutu63 — 2009-09-26 19:11:59Z

Hi,
I was looking for another Couture family some time ago and I did come across Noel and Odile in Grant Township, Michigan. I found a couple of births and marriages in that area. The family must have gone back and forth to Canada (I assume). There seems to be a gap between the births of the children.
I found the marriage of Daniel Fisher, age 25 and Delia Couture, age 16, of Benton TWP, MI, she was born in Cheboygan, MI. I didn't see her birth record in their county records or I could have missed it. You may want to try the Church records in Cheboygan and see if you can locate a baptismal record.

Re: Zeferine Pichette of Calumet MI

samotis — 2009-09-19 19:47:38Z

Thanks for posting this info on the Pichette family, Alicia. I am now researching this branch of my family, and wondered if you have found any other info on the other Pichette children, who they married or census info, births or deaths? I did not find a birth record for Zeferina, as I did for her siblings, so this is helpful to know her married name and childrens' names. I am researching her Mother, Elidas' family line (Archambeau/Archambault).
Thanks, Sue

Joseph Bertan son and Anna Bertan were both buried in Lakeview Cemetery. I believe that Anna and son were buried in the family cemetery. Bertonia, may have been the madien name. Thank you for your help. I will try calling the cemetery and getting the dates to both of the deaths. Vicki

fredrikmattsson — 2009-10-11 18:40:37Z

Is there anyone who is near the Finnish evangelical lutheran church in Hancock, MI (Gloria dei church). It would really help me if someone could check their records about John Olof och Hiltas daughter Lydia Sophia born 10th of april 1913. Guess she was baptized quite soon after her birth. Who were her godparents?

John Sigurd Johnson 1910 Hancock

fredrikmattsson — 2009-10-11 18:39:59Z

Thank You ThomasKer2!

I´ve found Adrienne she 92 yers old. She told her story. Her parents died when she was young and she had to stay with a mr erikson and his family. Mr eriksons wife died young and he remariired a widow with five children and the decided adrienne had to move to another family again. So she did´nt have any answers about the johnson family or the järvi family.

Joh(a)n Sigurd Johnson born oct 24 1910 Hancock

fredrikmattsson — 2009-10-08 20:26:49Z

Ive been locking for my grandfathers cousins for some years now. The history is following. John Olof Johnson b.20/12 1884 in Sweden moved around 1910 to Hancock. He died there 26/12 1912 leaving a widow and one son Joh(a)n Sigurd b. 24/10 1910. four months after John Olofs death a daughter is born Lydia Sophia (b. 10/4 1913).

The familys destiny is unknown for me, but a couple of days ago I found following information.

-John Olofs widows first name was "Hilta" (her maiden name is unknown)
-Joh(a)n Sigurd was baptized on new year's day January 1st, 1911 in Hancock.
-Joh(a)n Sigurds godparents were Peter and Liinu Järvi and Jacob and Maggie Vuopio.

- Ive found Jacob Wuopio he was born in sweden 1880 and married 18/9 1909 to Kreeta B. Hamalainen(b. 1883)in Calumet, Houghton, Michigan. In the census 1930 (Hancock) one can read:
Jacob Wuopio 49 born in Sweden
Margaret Wuopio 48 born in Finland
son Reynold Wuopio 14
daughter Adrienne Wuopio 13

is it possible to find/identify Hilta and the children based on the mentioned information? Godparents should be close to the family, hopefullt they keept contackt after John sr. death.

Were did Peter and Liinu Järvi live? children?

Emil Kallio

Surfing on e-bay today I saw a pay envelope from C & H for auction with the name Emil Kallio 7090 with an amount paid of $67.45 (-$1.30 for hospital and something else I can't read). Just thought I'd pass that along as there is an Emil Kallio on the 1920 census living in Houghton Co.

Please put the name of the people for whom you are looking in the subject line so people do not have to open your inquiry if it is a name in which they are not interested

Re: LOOKING FOR RELATIVES

TEOBUCK — 2009-09-22 14:43:05Z

Please, when you are requesting information put the surname of the relative for whom you are looking so people do not have to open your emails if it is a name in which they are NOT interested

Re: Kononen/Kotajarvi

Greetings!
I am just beginning my search for information on my grandfather, Mathew Kononen. He married my grandmother, Hilda Johnson (Johanson at Ellis Isle) Michigan. My mother was born in Detroit in 1929, and Grandfather died March 5, 1939 in San Francisco, apparently from an accident while on duty with the Border Patrol (but I cannot find anything about that). He is buried at the Presidio. I attached the only picture my mother has of him. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Feel free to contact me directly at rcwoodard@energysolutions.com Thanks, Rob

are there two Lakeside cemetaries or did you mean Houghton County?
I just attended a funeral service at Lakeside cemetary in Hancock, MI (across Portage Lake from Houghton, MI). Hancock is in Houghton County though

Cemeteries close to being closed soon

AliciaKMarshall — 2009-09-22 14:53:52Z

Please remember to call a cemetery locally before they are
closed for the season if you are looking for family
buried here.
br,
Alicia

Re: Kononen/Kotajarvi

AliciaKMarshall — 2009-09-22 13:58:19Z

What year was Hilda born, what is your mother's full name.
Alicia

Re: Lakeview Cemetery

AliciaKMarshall — 2009-09-29 13:41:09Z

You have to call the cemetery and ask. They charge me
for lookups so I cannot call. Google the cemetery and you will find the phone number.

I can't find any Bertan names in the census for Houghton county. What dates are you referring to?
