They say there are no coincidencies in this world and it certainly proved true, when I googled Maira one day. One of the search results offered an option: Maera. In Greek mythology, Maera was the hound of Icarus, father of Erigone.
According to the myth: "Icarus was a follower of wine god Dionysus and had been taught how to make wine. While travelling, Icarus met some drunken shepherds, who killed him. After getting sober next day the shepherds understood what they had done and buried Icarus' body. Erigone was worried about her father, and set off with her dog Maera to find him. Maera at last discovered his grave, and both became so overwhelmed with grief that Erigone hanged herself and Maera leapt off a cliff. According to the Greek poet Nonnos, Maera declined to leave the grave and was starved to death. Upon hearing the news, Dionysus placed them in the sky as the constellations of Virgo (Erigone), Boëtes (Icarus) and the dog star, Sirius (Maera)."
In the remembrance of Maera, the eternally devoted dog, I'll do my best posting photographs of as many gravestones as possible in the Kanta-Häme area in the Southern Province of Finland. (Updated Nov. 11, 2012, 11:11 AM)
Yours, Maira from Finland

Otan mielelläni myös vastaan lisätietoja, kuvia ja korjausehdotuksia, jos haluat täydentää sivua. Kunnioitan jokaista edesmennyttä, olivat he sitten eläneet yhden päivän tai sata vuotta. Jokainen elämä on arvokas ja muisto siitä jää elämään ja nämä sivut ovat yksi keino sen mahdollistamiseksi. Hautamuistomerkit pikku hiljaa katoavat ajan ja säiden kuluttamina, joten toivon osaltani voivani tallentaa tätä puolta kulttuurihistoriaamme tuleville sukupolville.
"Hallinto-oikeus kumosi tietosuojalautakunnan päätöksen - hautakuvat saavat olla internetissä (5.2.2010 6:45). Helsingin hallinto-oikeuden mukaan hautausmaiden hautamuistomerkeissä olevat tiedot on nimenomaan tarkoitettu kenen tahansa nähtäviksi, joten hautakivet ja niissä olevat tiedot voi julkaista esimerkiksi internetissä. Oikeuden perustelujen mukaan kysymys ei ole sellaisesta yksityisyyden suojasta, jota henkilötietolaissa tarkoitetaan."
Ystävällisin terveisin, Maira

 | Högman suvusta hei kiitokset hautakuvasta ja Högman linkistä Kalle Kustaa Harkelan osalta. Tutkin itse Högman suvun toista haaraa, joka muutti nimensä v. 1906 Aulanko nimeksi. Isoisäni Isä oli Kalle Kustaa Harkelan isän nuorempi veli | | | Charter Oak Butler

 | Paananen Hello from Canada Maira!
You have a Paananen family marker. I am looking for the family of Emma Paananen born in Vitasaari Finland in 1882. She emigrated to the US, to the residence of her uncle in Ashtabula, Ohio first, and then went on to Washington State. She was denied citizenship five times and returned to Finland sometime after 1942. I know nothing more about her Finn family. Any help you might be able to offer would be priceless!
Thank you for your time! AmyAdded by Amy R on Mar 24, 2013 9:13 PM | | | Robert Keto

 | Anders Keto I found this link to a grave for Anders Keto. Everything seems to match up but the dates you have listed. Could it be the same person?

 | Juho Litja Hei! Onko sinulla kuvaa Juho Litjasta, jonka nimi oli hautakivessä? Etsin Antreassa syntyneestä Juhosta kuvaa tunnistamista varten. Hän asui myöhemmin Hiitolassa ja isäni tunsi hänet hyvänä tarinankertojana. Voit vastata privaatisti: vallasv@gmail.com Hilkka Vallas | | | Juhani Lundén
 | Valokuva? Hei, Olisin kysynyt onko sinulla valokuvaa Kankaanpään kartanossa Kalvolassa 1840-1875 vaikuttaneista Nordenswaneista? Georg (isä) tai Johan Georg, Anders Otto tai Carl Magnus? Pojat olivat syntyneet muistaakseni Janakkalassa, ja muuttivat 1875 jälkeen Hämeenlinnaan.
