I do not have a complete census survey yet, but I have identified four (out of a reported nine) Mattila siblings who immigrated: Ida, Anna, Olga, and Alexander. This census work has been difficult because of recording errors made by the Minnesota census takers. I have not yet found Olga on the 1910 census nor have I located Ida in 1920 or 1930. The 1940 census will be available very soon so I will need to take a look at it, too.<\/p>\n<p>What is the deal with Ida? Perhaps she died early although I have not found a burial record for her in Minnesota. I cannot recall much conversation about her other than vague references to &#8220;the aunt in Biwabik&#8221;. She was married a couple of times, so I should be able to locate a marriage record for her in the United States.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, there remains much American research I can do on the this family before I can even begin with Finnish records.
