Ylönen Family Association

Collecting Ylönen stories

A Facebook group "Ylösten tarinoita" opened in November 2023. You can send there photos and stories about the history of our family. It is a closed group: you have to join and be accepted as a member, so the information you post will not be shared with the public. You can of course send your stories and stories via email as you have done up to now.
At this stage, we are only collecting information. Any publication will start later. So for now, feel free to send us your material. There is no story too small that would not interest us. It is important to let us know who is in the photo, what year it was taken and where it was taken. Each story should also include the contact details of the sender, for any further clarification.
