The fishing village of Finn Slough, Vancouver, Canada

In the year 1892, Mr. Mikko Hihnala who had become known as Mike Jacobson, took a leave of absence from an Astoria coal mine, in the state of Washington and visited Canada for the first time. The lush green meadows of Lulu Island presented a favourable contrast against the black coal mines. Jacobson was saying to himself: “I have never seen anything like this and I want to raise my family here.” Indeed he and several others did raise their families in this area of Lulu Island, and after a while, one of the main roads in that area was given the name of Finn Road, which is still in use today.
