Comments:
This is my great-great-grandfather. He emigrated to the U.S. sometime before 1858. I was always told that his father's name was Lars Larsen.

I found someone that comes very close to this description that was born in Rinkobing county (listed as Her i Sognet [Vildbjerg]) whose father was listed as Lars Jensen. The problem is his birthdate wasn't listed so I don't know if it matches. I found the entry on the website "Dansk Demografisk Database (DDD)" Record no. 255. How can I find that person's birthdate to see if it matches my great-great-grandfather's?

Also, family stories about Jens involved a city that we (Americans) call Flakkesberg (spelling may be wrong). I don't know if that was a real city, if that was where he lived or what, but I thought it might be helpful in narrowing down the search.

Thanks for any help!

He is remembered as 'John' rather than August. I believe he and his wife, Louisa Matilda Stenberg, came to America in @1882. She was born 6 Nov 1859 in Stockholm. They lived in Warren, Pennsylvania until at least 1886. Sometime between 1886 and 1890, they moved with two children born in Warren,PA (Charley John Johnson and Selma Louisa Johnson) to Crookston, Minnesota. August John died there, Louisa moved to Oregon and remarried.

My Father (recently passed away) was adopted at a young age. Not something our family found out about until near his passing. His adopted last name was Pedersen and adopted parents were Anna & Laurits Pedersen in Ramlose. Apparently he had two siblings and they were all orphaned due to their parents death in an automobile accident. Nonetheless, our family knows nothing of his birth parents, his siblings and the rest of the family tree. Any suggestions you might have as where we should begin to look. I am planning a trip to Europe later this year (we all live in Canada) and will spend a couple of days in Denmark. Thanks for your help.

Some years ago I posted a question on the forum of the 'Digitalarkivet' website about my Norwegian ancestor.

At the time two people read my question and began a dialogue on the forum about who my ancestor might be. They also did some research on my behalf. Although a lot of discoveries were made, I was still unable to prove without doubt that the person in question was the correct ancestor.

I have taken their findings and edited it into a readable note form.

I am wondering if you would be happy to read it for me and give me your opinion on their research?

I can email the notes to you.

Would you be happy to take a look for me?

Yours Sincerely,

Chris.
Adelaide.

Hi there

I have found the above name in my family tree and have come to a halt in my searches. It sounds as if it might be Scandinavian (She married in the North East of Scotland so this would tie in). I would appreciate any help in tracing the country of origin of this surname.

Many thanks
Maggie

Looking for actual birthplace and parents of this individual, possibly named John and Mary. Charles emigrated alone to U.S. 1883-1885 from Goteburg.

Thank you.

Looking for (name, birth date, location) Møre og Romsdal - Aure
Comments:
I am an American looking for the ancestors of Ole Andersen and Randi Rasmusdatter, who lived on Sandnæs Lille 40b farm in 1865 before emigrating to the United States in 1867. In the 1801 Norwegian Census, I can find no Sandnæs Lille 40b farm in Valsøfjords, Aure, but only a Sandnæs farm in Tingvold, Øre [Aure]. How do I find information on Ole Andersen and Randi Rasmusdatter between 1801 and 1865 and find information on whether or not the two farms are related?

Sincerely,
Kara D. Ishii

Grandparent Jens emmigrated to England. I am unsure if he married in Denmark or England. His spouse is Louise.
My grandfather was born in Landore Wales England 2nd Dec 1901.and married my grandmother Ellen Emily.
I am unsure if you can help me but I don't know what to do next.
Many thanks
