Our private online family groups make it easy for descendants of John & Sophia (and our partners/spouses) to connect with each other online.

Our online forum unlocks the Ojala family Archive, and allows sharing via email and the forum page. Join here.
Our Facebook group allows sharing and commenting via social media. Join here.
Our Ojala Family online forum uses the Google groups platform, and automatically unlocks the Ojala family Archive. You can also use it to share content with the group.
You need a Google account to join. Use the same account that you will use for the Ojala family Archive. Join here. Once you’ve joined, go to membership settings from the forum page. Supply your real name (or a nickname that lets your family identify you). Adjust your subscription settings to reflect your email preferences.
Share content from the forum page, or by emailing the group at ojalafamily@googlegroups.com. Replies are sent to all members by default, yet sometimes it’s better to reply solely to the author of a post. Replies that are private in nature, and those not relevant to the group (such as a simple “thank you” to a post's author) can be sent directly to that author.
The online forum is private—only members can see the members and posts.
Facebook is fairly self-explanatory. If you have questions don't hesitate to ask!
All group and Archive content should be relevant to other descendants of John & Sophia Ojala. Please avoid potentially divisive and unrelated content (religion, politics, what you had for dinner, etc.).
Group content may be cross-posted to our family Archive, by any group member, for other descendants to enjoy.
