Hello, Tanja,
It is very kind of you to respond. Thank you.
You're absolutely right about the "stst" spelling. I thought it was a typographical error at first, but a very nice person straightened me out. I have been given information that allowed me to find them.
In fact, the help I got allowed me to contact the wife of one of my cousins (who is a son of Väino in Pihtipudas). And if that were not enough, she (who lives in Finland) was going to be in Boston on business. My husband and I were going to be in the Boston area, and she and I met in July. It was a remarkably touching experience.
It is through the efforts of folks like you who will take the time to reach out with information. I hope to return the favor if I have the opportunity, because I know how much it can mean in someone's life.
Best regards,
Paula
