Greetings! I live in the United States. My family has always believed that our ancestors originated from Italy. Come to find out, we are from Finland! I have been serving for phone directories, or web sites to help with a search for "Jacola"'s anywhere in Finland. Can you help me? Looking for relatives currently living in Finland. I have looked up several web sites, but they have not been useful.

The address of every person living officially in Finland is available in
Population Register Centre (Väestörekisterikeskus)
The telephone number is 0600 0 1000 and a call costs 9,95 mk/min + local call charge.
