I am interested in any information anyone may have regarding my great-grandparents Andrew Kivela and Mathilda Pokela Kivela. They were both from Finland and lived in Ashtabula, Ohio around the late 1800s and early 1900s. My grandfather, William Arthur Kivela was one of their children. My father, William Arnold Kivela was born 5 September 1926. He knew very little about his father's side of the family. I would appreciate any information anyone could give me about his family.

We are related. Mathilda was my great, great Aunt. If you have read previous posts, Bob/Dorothy Steele is also a cousin of yours. I have a ton of information if you are still interested. I am from the Pokela side when it comes to your side of the family, and my Maki's were originally Kivelas. I can put you in touch with several people. Please let me know!
