Viljo Rosvall and Janne Voutilainen were two Finnish-Canadian unionists from Thunder Bay, Ontario and members of the Lumber Workers Industrial Union of Canada who mysteriously disappeared on November 18, 1929. The two were on their way to a bushcamp near Onion Lake to recruit sympathetic bushworkers for a large strike which was gaining momentum west of Thunder Bay in Shabaqua and Shebandowan. ==Discovery of the bodies and funeral==
The bodies of Rosvall and Voutilainen were found by a union search party, which included Aate Pitkanen, at Onion Lake the following spring. The men's funeral on April 28, 1930 was the largest ever held in Thunder Bay. Adding to the legendary status of the event, a solar eclipse darkened the sky as the funeral procession marched to Riverside Cemetery.〔S. Repo, "Rosvall and Voutilainen: Two Union Men Who Never Died", Labour/Le Travail Autumn/Spring 1981/82. Volume 8/9, pg. 95 http://www.lltjournal.ca/index.php/llt/article/viewPDFInterstitial/2634/3037〕 The funeral events were regarded as the symbolic beginning of the Great Depression for local residents.
