My great grandfather, Vaino (small possibility of waino) Tommola came to the united states from Finland (I believe ...possibly Kymi area or southern finland). He came with his wife and had 2 children. Vaino and his wife, helga (maybe helda), died in corning, ny possibly due to a flu pandemic...their children were 2 and 4 and orphaned.
My family seems to dead end and give up once they get to Vaino and cannot find more information, but I am still trying. I search tons of parishes, and the only tommolas I found through 1860 were in southern finland.
DOes anyone know where I could find find records through 1900?
Best of luck to you all in your searches!
