Looking for Great GrandDad Jacob Kujala
I'm looking for any further information about my Great GrandDad Jacob Kujala, born May 9, 1859 in Oulainen, Finland, died Feb. 2, 1944 in Astoria, Oregon. He was a minister and married to Hannah when he died. I know that he had lots of sons and daughters out there, including my GrandDad, Thomas who resided in Ontonagon, Mi. I'm looking for any more detailed information about GGDad and his family. Thanks!

Re: Looking for Great Grand Dad Jacob Kujala
Jacob Kujala, who passed on to his glory in Astoria, Oregon, was my paternal grandmother's father. He used to come and visit us during World War II prior to his death.
He has a grand daughter, about 88 years old, still living on Page Hill Road, New Ipswich, NH 03071, named Mrs. Isaac Traffie [Jenny (Jean) Pyhala], telephone # 603 878-2326, who also has sons living near there in the same town or general area named Traffie, Michael in Ashby, MA, Alvin Traffie 187 Fox Farm Road, New , Ipswich, NH o3071, James, Mathhew, Wayne plus numerous great, great grandchildren in New Hampshire.
He also has a Grandson, Verner (Vern) ,alive, who is living with his daughter Lois, Mrs. Robert (Rob) Minton, 612 Bradley Circle, Midwest City, Oklahoma 73110, telephone # 405 733-3389 somewhere around 84 years old.
He has a Granddaughter Martha (Judy), Mrs. Lynn Wise In Milton-Freewater, Oregon. I would have to get you the particulars on Judie's current address, but I believe she can be reaced at 541 938-4850, at her daughter Donna's home.I believe Judy is about 82.
He also has his youngest grand daughter of the Pyhala relationship, Marion (Mickey), Mrs. Floyd Saranpaa, 5110 Highway 21, Embarrass, Minnesota 55732, 218 984-2031.
These are all of the remaining grandchildren that I am aware of. If you are still interested, and have not located any of this information we can get together on the internet and discuss further ot relatives. The Pyhala family alone, had a reunion in August of 2004 with hundreds of attendees. There are a granddaughter and grandson named Burke in Lead, SD, which I wwould have to do some digging on.
