I'm looking for information about Aksel Sagsveen born in 1894 and Thora Davidson born in 1897. They are my grandparents who immigrated in about 1910 to 1913. Any help would be appreciated.

My great grandfather, Andreas Pedersen Sørgen, was born in 1883 at Sørgen near Eine. My great grandmother, Helene Olsdatter Sivesind, was born in 1821 at Sivesind. They married in 1845 and lived at Kværnum, Sørgensætra, Blåvarp and Nyork where my grandfather Anton was born in 1858. They immigrated to the USA in 1863. I have not had a chance to use your site yet. I hope to find more information about these farms and how long my family lived at Sørgen prior to my great grandfather. I would also like to know if there are any descendants of either family that still live in the area and might be contacted.

Gentlemen, or Gentlewomen: I am interested in your organization and and searching for a contact in Vestre Toten (probably Eina) to direct me to a contact to trace descendants of one family of early Vestre Toten. The family lived in the Hanshaugen Farm (in or near Eina) ca 1870 to 1920. Family name was Even Kristiansen and first wife, Kari Nilsdtr. Kari was born in Gran/Brandbu in 1849, moved to Vestre Toten about 1870, married in Vestre Toten Even Kristiansen, had children from that marriage, but died in Eina in 1882. Source: Vestre bygdebook for Hanshaugen Farm. Can you direct me to a source in Vestre Toten that may be able to search for living descendants of this family in Norway, in particular Vestre Toten? Thank you and we appreciate your assistance. Bill Woods

First, your site is wonderful and has been most helpful in my search for Skundberg's. Johannes Anstensen, wife Karen Ellertsdatter, her father Ellert Pedersen and 5 children came to USA in 1870, Polk County, Osceola, WI. 1880 USA Census has the family as John Skunbergs! My aunt told me the family use to talk about us being Skundberg's, but nobody knew for sure. So, if others are seeking this family: Anstensen in Stertingdal, Skundberg farm, is Surname Skundberg is 1880 USA, Mathinus (son to Johannes and Karen) married in 1881 using Surname Anderson. This must have happened with Naturalization. Anyone who might have an explanation...I'd love hearing from you! Linda lprice22@hotmail.com

Hei og takk for det flotte arbeidet som er gjort med registreringer. Jeg søker etter etterkommere av John Olsen f.10.10.1860 (det er oppgitt 1862 i digitalarkivet)gift 20.12.1884 med Marit Olsdatter f. 1866. De fikk tilsammen 13 barn så vidt jeg kjenner til, men jeg finner bare 10 barn i digitalarkivet. Vi har funnet den 11 som døde før foketellingen i 1900, hun het Mari Johnsdatter f. 09.04.1886. Av disse barna er Olea Johnsen min mormor hun døde så vidt jeg vet og ble gravlagt 23.03.1938,48 år gml. Hun var gift med Julius Nilsen fra Vestfold (Nøtterø -usikkerhet?) de hadde 4 barn, eldste Alf Johnny, Aslaug Miranda, Marit Lillian (min mor)f. 02.03.1925 d. mai 1989, og Bjørn Arvid. Min mormor bodde på Vestre Toten på gården Jutulrud i Eina ved folketellinga i 1900. Vi (min kusine Bjørg datter av Aslaug Miranda og jeg) ønsker å få vite mer om slekten dersom noen sitter ikke med opplysninger. Hvis noen har foto hadde det vært kjempefint for vi har aldri sett vår mormor i live ei heller på noe bilde. på forhånd takk. Med hilsen Sonja Østengen f. Michelsen)og slekten Michelsen kommer muligens fra Hedmark) min far het Per Oddvar Michelsen f. 17.07.1923 d. april 1983. Hans far het Ingvar Thorbjørn og var så vidt jeg kjenner til f. 08.05.1887 d. tror jeg i 1938. Han var gift med Dagny Kristine f. 13.02.1889 og antagelig fra Enebakk. De fikk tilsammen 8 barn. Tar gjerne i mot opplysninger om disse også. På forhånd takk.

. What I have found is that most of these people all lived in Oppland- Vestre Toten and Ostre Toten. They all farmed or lived on other peoples farms. Some are married to relatives. They olso worked at the Raufoss and Gjovik Factory and still are. I just love how they change there last names. That makes it so much more fun to do a family tree.The people that I met where some of the most charming ,incredible people I had the good fortune of meeting. Hilsen Sue

I'm English speaking only. I'm searching for relatives in Norway. I have the name of Johannes Pederson Lysbakken SLETMOEN. He worked the Sletmoen farm between 1855 and 1929. I think it was near Tretten. I have some indication that there was a relative named Ragnhild Johannesdatter Sletmoen from Faaberg, Gudbrandsdahl, Norway 1900 to 1909. My grandfather came to U.S. in 1890's. He used the name Ole Sletmoen here and married Marie Fagerlie also from Norway in early 1900. They both lived in Audubon, Minn. and died of Tuberculosis in 1908 about one week apart. My dad, Orville did not know much about his family as he was orphaned at 2 yers old. If you can be of any help in my search I would be greatful. Russ

I found this site interesting. I still am unable to locate any information on tmy grear grandfather. The parish records show nothing by his name. I have his mothers name and fathers names, sister, and step father and 3 other siblings. Lars came into the US in 1867 and the rest of the familyu came in to the US in 1868 approx., according to the information i received from Norway. I have alot information from after he arrived here, but I would like to know what happened to the rest of his family. Did they stay here or return to Norway. I do not find any on the children born after lars by her 2nd husband. Elling Arntson. If you have any ideas for me please e-mail me.

I have tried to find out who the parents are of Peder Paulsen (1840) and his wife, Lene Johannesen (Johannesdatter) (1842) and have had not luck. Are there any volunteers who might take this on?
I think Peder Paulsen's mother was Johanne Olsdotter (according to the 1865 Gjovik (Vardal) census but the rest has eluded me.
I am attempting to find them and their children and years of birth.

I am searching for the birthplace of Ingeborg Maria Johannsdotter(? her name was 'Anglicised' in the US and this is my best guess of her Norwegian birth name). She was b. in 1859 and immigrated to the US (Nebraska) in 1883. On her wedding certificate, she listed her parents names as John Johnson and Emily Oleson. In US church records, she listed her place birth as Sondre Land, Oppland. I have had no luck finding her family in the NO census of 1865. Somebody suggested she might be from Frydenlund farm in Sondre Land, but the dates don't exactly match. Any search suggestions gratefully appreciated!

I remember that one of his family visited America in the the 50 or 60's. It would be so wonderful to hear from any of you there. Also my family name is Didreckson (Didrickson) from Bergen, Norway. My grandfather Arent has several brothers. I think there were seven of them. Please let me know if you are well. Would love to hear from you.

Hi! I can't find him in our bases, but I think he was born in another district of Norway.
Vardal is in Gjøvik, but Værdalen, can be spelled as Vardalen or Vaerdalen in US. It's north of Trondheim.
I'm deeply shocked at the pictures on CNN. God bless America!

And answer from Sylvia.
Your kind reply to my inquiry on Severt Olson may very well be the clue that has remained so elusive. I'll try following up on it. Thank you.
Thank you too for your obvious sensitivity to the horrible events of yesterday. America is in a deep shock that is I fear headed toward a monumental grieving period. Few survivors I fear. Yesterday I was brought to tears when it was reported that the hijacked pilot of the first commercial plane to be flown into the tower was born in my home town of Lowell, Massachsetts and he went to school with my brother. Before this is over I fear it will be found that there are many persons involved. This was no amateur project. My oldest son is 13 years in the Army as an officer. He has always maintained that we were too lax in our security. Truly America has changed. We are a resilient people and I'm sure will survive. None of us however will ever trust as we have in the past.
The support from around the world is much appreciated. Thank you for yours.

Hei Bjørn, har prøvd å åpne de samme kirkebøkene i kveld (søndag) uten problemer. Jeg vet ikke hva problemet skyldes, hadde håpet at vi var kvitt denne type problemer etter at vi oppgraderte programvaren på vårparten. En mulighet er problemer på serveren, men da burde ikke andre databaser virke heller. Det eneste tipset jeg kan gi er å avslutte alle forkomster av browserprogrammet og starte på nytt, det har hjulpet noen ganger.
Selv om vi ikke har noen løsning på problemet, vil vi gjerne høre fra andre som evt har samme problem slik at vi får vite noe om omfanget av problemet. Mvh Geir

I am trying to find info on my great grandmother's family that were from Nord-Fron in Oppland. Will you have more on the surrounding areas in the future? I've found them in the 1865 census and also in the emigrants from Oslo. Any help would be appreciated.

Saw this on the Norway list and thought I would give it a try. I have two GGGrandfather's and a GGGGrandmother who were part of the first group to leave Toten in 1846, so my "roots" are deep!

Love this web page! I stem from the Nettum farm, and some years ago, I found a cousin, Herman Nettum who lives near Lake Mjøsa in Østre Toten. He's a wonderful genealogist! Keep up the good work, on this page. I'm the genealogist for the Valdres Samband Lag in America, and will help anyone connected with Valdres with their ancestors.

Ad Utvandring: Utvandrerboka er skjemmet med en del feil, særlig når det gjelder foreldre til enslig utvandrede. Even Kristiansen, f 1826, utv 1854, er fra Liereie på Ringsaker og utvandret derfra. Han er ikke sønn til Kristian Stalberg. Hans sønn, Even Andreas, f 1826, døde i 1832. Jfr Liv Marits svar til Bruce Wigness under Emigrant-Information. Hilsen BH

Til Gjøvik og Toten slektshistorielag!
Jeg vil gjerne takke dere for alt materiale dere har lagt ut på nettet til buk for mennesker som meg som søker etter røtter man vet lite om. En spesiell honnør til dem som har lagt ut alle data til dåp, ekteskap og dødsfall i Vardal. Dette materialet er lett å søke i - de som har utført dette, har gjort fantastisk arbeide!!
Takket være arbeid fra dere ildsjeler har jeg funnet mye om slekt jeg ikke visste om. Takk!!

Takk for ei fin side. Har hatt stor hjelp til å finne mine aner og da særlig koble sammen eldre og yngre generasjoner. Folketelling for 1875 (Vestre Toten) samt begravde på Raufoss og Aas var spesielt til god nytte (selv om folketellingen for 1875 inneholder noen feil...).
