St. Urho: Patron Saint of Finland
"The legend of St. Urho began in Northern Minnesota in the 1950s. ... However, there are differing opinions as to whether it began with ... fables ... or the tongue-in-cheek tales told by Richard Mattson of Virginia [Minnesota]." The site provides a history of this "mythical Finnish-American hero," links to information about celebrations in the United States of St. Urho's Day on March 16, images of St. Urho statues, and links to related information.
