That's cool. There are a number of notables who need to be connected to the main tree, and those sources might help:

I will eventually take care of the Finnish profiles. They are on my to do list. As I mentioned below, I am more comfortable using the national archive's primary sources.

It is always free to research in Danmark and Finland. For instance
www.ddd.dda.dk    www.historie-online.dk/slaegtsforskning.htm
www.ddd.dda.dk    www.nsdb.dk   http://findengrav.dk    www.landsarkivetkbh.dk/oresund/slaegt/text/linksse/index.htm 
and Finland
www.pronto.com    www.zapmeta.se  www.izito.se

As Finland many years belonged to Sweden you can find nobles in
 www.riddarhuset.se

You don´t go through My heritage.

So there is absolutely no possibility that MyHeritage could know something that the others don't ?

I tried a search for president Kekkonen that is mentioned above and all I got was family trees. Not a single source. I will rather keep to the Finnish (and Danish) national archives that provide most of the digitized primary sources for free.

Here's what you need for research in Finland,

and some online books:

The book page is a work in progress and you are welcome to add any genealogical books related to Scandinavian families that you find online for free.
