Hello,
I have been doing some research for a friend and have a Greta Sofia Waris Karppinen in my data base. Information I have is she was born 22 March 1871 in Pulkkila, Finland; died 6 March 1947 in St. Louis County, Minnesota. She came to America prior to 1900 to the Houghton, Michigan area where she was married to a Jacob Halmi Kangas who either died or they were divorced and she then married Erik Karppinen. In the early 1900's they moved to the Cromwell, Minnesota area where she lived the remainder of her life. She died in hospital of a coronary embolism following a fall that resulted in a broken hip. She is buried in the Forest Hill Cemetery in Cromwell, Minnesota next to Erik. I would appreciate any information you might have on her prior to her coming to America. I have not been able to identify her parents or any siblings that she might have had. If you wish to contact me personally, my e-mail address is:
finnguymn@frontiernet.net
If this is the woman you are searching for I have information on her marriage and her family in America. Look forward to hearing from you.

Daily Horoscope for January 5

Virgo

You aren't fooling anyone - it's easy for everyone else to see that inexperienced people are unaware of their obligations, Virgo. You're grumpy about starting a familiar process from the beginning again, but don't let that get in the way of getting on with it. Sour grapes have no place in your daily dealings. Although you may 'own' a project, it's ultimately in the hands of someone else. Deal with it and then move on.
