IKOLA farm in Lapua Finland/Sanna Harsila Ikola b.1836

I am researching the Ikola name.

I discovered there is an Ikola farm in Lapua Finland.

Liisa Vuorenmaa b. 17.11.1871 was born in Lapua.

I am researching Liisa's mother: Sanna Jaakontytar Harsila, born 5.2.1836. The death certificate of her daughter Liisa in USA states that her mother's maiden name was Susan Ikola.

Was Sanna born Harsila and then later took the farm name Ikola?

Can someone help me find her birth in the online Finnish records? Thank you!

I read that children took the name of the farm where they were born as their surname.
