Хм, знaчит -oв этo Финнo-yгopcкиe фaмилии?
Probably family that came from Karelia and did not change their last name.
My great-great-grandfather was Lettijeff when he left village of Kalevala in Karelia but changed it to Lehtinen when he settled in Finland.

Some might be, some might not.
Them being on website like vk would at least slightly suggest that they feel connected to Russian people.

Probably Ingrian or Karelian, some of them went to Finland.

No one I know in our family is an orthodox.

Orthodox Finn=East Karelian 100% of the time
West Karelia, which you annexed had about 10% native East Karelians and they also were evacuated and settled elsewhere in Finland.

Ingrians in SPb seem very religious but they are Lutherans
never seen one with a Russian surname

how is Orthodox church in Finland? guess it is like buddhism temples in Russia, regular people have no idea what is going on there
