Johan Henrik Mattson Pohjola eller Määttä

[monikao]

Hei,

I'm looking for information about the Pohjola family whom left Kuusamo in 1844 for Kuolajävri.

Johan Henrik b. 1810
Maria/Margaretha Pesonen b. 1817
Anna Caisa b. 10/10 1837
Johan Petter b. 13/3 1840
Eva Stina b. 24/8 1842

http://www.sukuhistoria.fi/sshy/kirjat/Kirkonkirjat/kuusamo/muuttaneet_1818-1879_ik234/30.htm

When I googled Kuolajärvi I ended up in Kola, Russia. Is that correct?

Eva Stina got married 1/12 1867 in Vadsø, Norway. She married Henrik Henriksson Vyörykkä eller Maunu from Kemi. They had 8 children and Eva Stina died 17/8 1905 in Vadsø.

I haven't been able to trace the rest of the Pohjola family either in Norway or Finland, so any help is really appreciated.

Kiitos!

No, Google didn't know the right address:). Kuolajärvi is in Kuusamo, Finland. I suppose you can find the family here:

Kuusamo Communion Boof 1843-1849 > 30 - http://digi.narc.fi/digi/view.ka?kuid=5580164

Hope you find the right persons. Please do not hesitate to ask me if you need help in reading or otherwise.
