Hello there,
I am trying to find out where my grandfather's best friend was buried. My search started in Finland and I just found out that he died from his war injuries in Estonia.
His name was Otto Tanni born 28 Jan 1898, in Finland.
He died 4 Feb 1919 in Estonia.
I found the following:
From the Registry of War Dead 1914-1922, Otto Malakias Malakiannpoika Tanni born 28 Jan 1898 and died 4 Feb 1919 Tartto, Viro.
Cause of death: sodan aiheuttama sairaus. Profession: telegrafisti. Age 21, birth: Lappi TL, census registration: Turun ja Porin lääni, burial: Ei Tietoa. Military organization: Viron retkikunta, way of recruitment: vapaaehtoinen.
I understand from the above that there is no record of his burial place. Would anyone know what happened to the soldiers who died in Estonia, were they buried there or returned to Finland? I don't know much about this period in history but I am very interested to learn more and see if I can find where Otto was buried.
Many thanks for any help.
Ayla
