Hello,
My father was Nicholas John Korkatti 6/18/07, Died 7/20/90.
His father Johan Matson (?Mattson)Korkatti came here from either Haapajarvi or Karsamaki, Finland.We are related to Levi Madetoja, the famous composer who died about l00 years ago.I have more information about the Korkatti's in Finland and have met some of them.I don't have the information with me.My address is:
65 East India Row, 2E
Boston, MA 02110-3391Date of Birth:5/16/41
I grew up in Gloucester, MA where there are a lot of Finnish people still residing there.They worked on the quarries when they first came here around 1890 - 1905.
E-mail me if I can help.
Christine
