Finnish American Historical Society of Hiawathaland

Finns of Iron County, Michigan

In order to join the Finnish American Historical Society of Hiawathaland, the perspective member was required to complete a long questionnaire, which included their birth date and birthplace, as well as their wives, parents, in-laws, and date of place of marriage.  Some forms even have expository text and other autobiographical information and stories.  Most every member lived in Iron County, Mich.

For more information about the Archive's holdings of the Finnish American Historical Society of Hiawathaland collection, see the R-Series Finding Aid.
