I am researching a collateral surname OJALA.
In the 1920 US Census, Marengo WI;
Andrew (Antti) age 41 born Finland
Amanda (MAKELA) age 45 born Finland
John D (or T) age 16 born WI
Ljjli A (Lila) age 13 born WI
Anne U (Aune Uliina) age 9 born WI
Rauha S (Sylvia) age 3 born WI
Karoline E (Elizabeth) age 3 born WI
In the 1910 US Census, Marengo WI there is an additional son named Walter age 4 born MI and son John is said to have been born MI also. Walter is not found in 1930 or later censuses and I can't confirm John or Walter's place of birth.
I found that Lila married a FERGUSON and that she died in 1988 in St Louis County MN and was buried in Marengo WI. Both Antti & Amanda died in Waukegan IL and were buried in Marengo WI. Aune married 3 times, DAVIS, KOIVULA & FORRESTER.
Does anyone researching the same names have any additional information concerning this family in the US? I would appreciate your sharing in order for me to provide one of their descendants more than what they already know.
Thanks in advance & SISU!
John
