help with information for Great Aunt

Viesti Kirjoittaja sbogseth » 19.04.2026 20:39

Hello,

I'm looking for help with finding additional information on my Great Aunt that stayed in Finland.
Her name was Tida Maria Seppanen born 13/12/1892. The last information I can find is in the Communion Book 1909 here. https://www.sukuhistoria.fi/sshy/sivut_ ... 2&pnum=154

I would like to know where she went from here. I don't see that she went with the family to the US in 1909. I believe she was also married in Finland but never had children.

My thanks in advance for any help provided.

Sue Bogseth

I only found a passenger manifest for when her mother and 2 siblings moved to USA in 1917 that says the person in Finland is Ida Seppanen in Helsinki, Finland: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:JJCD-724

Hello Sue,
I found one Ida Maria Seppanen, who married Edvard Rautioharju in 1933 in Helsinki. Edvard died in 1943 and it seems Ida Rautioharju emigrated to USA in 1949 (information from MyHeritage) and was living in Marquette, MI in 1958. Here is information about her life claim to US Social Security:
Nimi Ida M Rautioharju
Tietuetyyppi Vaatimus
Syntymä 13. joulukuuta 1892
Kirjauspäivä 14. tammikuuta 1958
Lähetyspäivämäärä 13. tammikuuta 1958

Viitenumero 66190581069
Kuvaus Life claim
Can this person be your Great Aunt?
Yours Heikki Virtanen
