The melding of several disciplines whose common thread is that the subjects/speech communities speak related languages is a sign of how advanced (or less charitably: oversubscribed) Indo-European studies are compared to studies of other languages. For Uralic languages, it's just nowhere close.

You'll probably need to read several books or monographs involving Uralic languages and the speech communities to get some semblance of an answer to your questions about the history of the ancestors of today's Finns, Estonians, Hungarians, Saami, Udmurts et al. It won't be found in a neat package (nor is it necessarily valid to infer that linguistic affinity suggests that the speech communities can be then homogenized or abstracted into some cohesive group - excepting perhaps for speakers of Proto-Uralic, and even then this is tough to gauge).
