I want to know information about Alfred Lunt. I especially want to verify his Finnish background. He was a famous actor in USA in the l920-l950's and was awarded White Rose from Finland for providing help during Russian invasion of Finland in l939-40.His father was Alfred D. Lunt, a lumber baron and mother was Hattie Briggs. In biographies they talk about him going to Finland during his childhood,young adult days very frequently. I would like to know where he went in Finland and to find out if there are any relatives in Finland.
Any information you could provide would be helpful.

After checking all the resources at our disposal, I regret to have to tell you that we could not find any more information than you already had. (The only web page mentioning Alfred Lunt's Finnish background was http://www.genealogia.fi/emi/art/lstar179e.htm )
There might still exist a slight possibility of finding out something through the Institute of Migration
(http://www.migrationinstitute.fi/index_e.html ). We recommend that you contact them.
