Looking more Paananen Family members

Hi,
I'm looking for descendants of David Kantonen, b. 20.12.1870 Saarijarvi, Finland, immigrated into USA 1903, d. 15.5.1927, married with Elina (Edina) Paajanen, b. 17.4.1826 Karstula, Finland, d. 6.11.1947 Maynard, Ohio.
They had five children:
1) Laina Lempi Kantonen, b. 5.8.1896 Karstula, Finland, d.1925??
2) Siiri Johanna Kantonen, b. 29.3.1899 Karstula, d. 25.7.1979 Mass., marreid with Andrew O Kuusisto (Antti), d. 1955??? USA (They have two children)
3) Taito Alvar Kantonen, b.24.4.1900 Karstula, Finland, d. 26.4.1993 USA, Mass., marreid with Frances Sainio ??, they had four children
4) Helmi (Hella) Kantonen, b. Saarijarvi, Finland, d.??, married with Reino Waldemar Keto, b. 29.3.1908, d. 15.4.1993 USA, they had two children
5) Aino Lilja Kantonen, b.6.9.1901 Saarijarvi, Finland, d. 23.3.1976 Wisc. USA, married with Sakari Halkola, b. 1892 Kauhajoki??, d. 1960 USA?? They had two sons.

I've managed to take contacts with one of those, David Taito Halkola in Ohio. The connections between the family and the family members in Finland, Saarijarvi, were broken of in 1960's-70's. Now I hope to find them because we are making Paananen Family research and writing a book of the Family; the name of the book is Hepomaen Paanaset Pylkonmaelta ja Saarijarvelta (Paananen Family at Hepomaki Farn in Pylkonmaki and Saarijarvi). Kantonen Family is belonging to Paananen Family.

I appreciate so much if anyone could give more information about children and their families.

Ulla,

I have returned to my research.

You will see on Ancestry.com quite a few new entries for the Kantonen family.

I hope this helps you.

My son was asking about family history and I came across your post. I am the son of Paul Henry Daniel Halkola. Who is the brother of David T. Halkola. Sones of Aino Lilja Kantonen (Halkola). I read that you had contacted my uncle David prior to his death, I am sure he's was able to provide much more information than I can. If you are in need information I can help with please feel free to contact me.
