I have two ancestors who immigrated to the USA.
First one is my great-great-uncle (paternal) Rudolf Kinnunen, born on the 6th of March, 1884. Immigrated to the USA September 14th, 1900 on Ellis Island.

He died in the USA 1954, I don't know where he died and did he have any children.
The other one is my great-uncle (maternal) Nikolai Valdemar Paananen born on the 26th of February, 1892. I know that he immigrated to the USA August 16th, 1912 on Ellis Island,

I look for any information of them.

"Hän oli Iida tai Ida Kinnunen, Asthabula, Harbor Ohio.
Hänellä oli ainakin poika, josta tuli hammaslääkäri ja joka kävi joidenkin muiden kanssa Nivalassa Kuuselassa. Muistaakseni mekin olimme töllöttämässä heitä. Eemeli-setä eli vielä.
Iida Kinnusen mies oli kai Viitasaarelta kotoisin.
Kerrottiin, että he olivat varakkaita - ainakin joskus - ja että heillä oli useita taloja, niin että katua, jonka varrella talot olivat, alettiin kutsua Kinnuskaduksi. Liekö legendaa."
