Innlegg nr. 34 (11:48 26/12-98)
Your entry: Norge Sailing Ship "HOVDING" left Christiania (OSLO ) on 31st
of May 1872 bound for Napier NEW ZEALAND with many Norwegian emmigrants with some Danish
and Swedish families also. On board my Grt Grandparents Edvard HANSEN his wife Jorgine
Larsdatter(daughter of Lars Jorgensen and Martha Pedersdatter..They had with them their 4
year old daughter Hanna Louise Hansen and shortly after leaving a son was born and named
Christian and given the name of the ship as his second name "Hovding"
Hansen.Other good family friends included VINGERS, TORKILDSENS, NEILSENS. Does anyone have
records on these people of this voyage??Their families left behind?? Who was related to
who??Where are the missing links?? EDVARD is said to have been born in Fredrikstad about
1840 and JORGINE in Drammen about 1849--They may have married in or near Tonsberg where
Hanna was possibly born about 1868. Other childrens names may be a clue.These in
order:Christian Hovding Hansen---Otto Martinius---Anna Marie---Erik----Elise
Jorgine----Peter Edward------John Lewis----This family was among the pioneer settlers of
the small town of Norswood in the Southern Hawkes Bay region of New Zealand. Edvard is
thought to have had an older brother who was a ships captain and may have settled in
Seattle about 1885 or there abouts. Any clues would be very much appreciated as I would
dearly love to find my 1999 relatives in todays Norway.Kiwi Viking.

Innlegg nr. 42 (08:32 22/10-98)
Your entry: Our American Stolpestad family originates from the Frang farm in Stange
and the Stolpestad farm in Ringsaker. Looking for a few details: 1. Ship passage
information for Anders Hansen (American name Andrew Stolpestad) b. 13-10-1849, Stolpestad
farm, Ringsaker and his wife Taaline Larsdatter (American name Toline Frang/Toline
Stolpestad) b. 09-26-1876, Frang farm, Stange. They came to America in 1882 with two
children Harald Lauritz (Harold Lauritz Stolpestad) b. 21-01-1879, Ringsaker and Eli
Kirsten (Ella Kirsten Stolpestad) b. 13-12-1880, Ringsaker. 2. American emigration
information for Taaline Larrsdatter's sister, Helene Mathea Larsdatter b. 09-01-1829,
Frang farm, Stange. Her parents were Lars Halvorsen b. 1797 and Eli Hansdatter b. 1802. 3.
Any translation or meaning of the name Annar (Annar Stolpestad was the second son for
Anders and Taaline and their first of three more children born in America. My son was
given G-Grandfather Annar's name as his middle name - John Annar Stolpestad b. 1990. 4.
Any translation or meaning of the name Taaline (Taaline Larsdatter/Taaline Frang/Toline
Stolpestad). Family lore says it means twelve because she was the 12th child born. Baptism
records in Stange list her as the 8th child born. My niece was given G-G-Great Grandmother
Toline's name as her middle name - Laura Toline Stolpestad Baldwin b. 1995. Thank you for
any assistance, Hilsen, Cary

Your entry: I have been tracing my ancestors in Norway with help from
some very kind people. The only one that is "lost" is my grandmother
Ellen Neilson. She was born in 1857 and my grandfather was born in 1854. They
came to America June 1882. My grandfather was from Ullensaker but I have no idea
where my grandmother is from. They must have been married before they came.
Would anyone have a book from Ullensaker that has the marriage records from
probably 1880 and 1881 that might have their marriage record in it?? My
grandfathers birth and baptismal records are in the Ullensaker book. He was
Anton Christofferson or Christopherson or Christoffersen. I have records
spelling it all different ways. Thanks for your help.

Andrew H. Nelson, born February 10, 1865 and Martin that died on the sea voyage.
to America in 1867. Ole claimed to be born at Kristiana, but he was not found in
the birth records there. The family emigrated to America through Quebec and are
first found at Goodhue County, Minnesota, with the birth of another son, Martin,
born January 8, 1868. Christened at the Hof church. Martin died April 10, 1869.
The last record of the family in that location was in 1871. They are at Madison,
Lac Qui Parle County, Minnesota in 1880 census. Family letters indicate there
was an Andreas Nelson and wife Berthea, with children Johann and Karin,
locations unknown until Andreas Nelson’s death December 30, 1913, in
Minneapolis, Minnesota. I believe Andreas and Hans to be brothers. Anyone

Sverige),og flyttet til Kristiania. Når min farmors mor ble født, (i 1877)
bodde familien i Nedre Hammersborg i Kristiania, og de flyttet en del rundt i
området. Hele tiden het de DAHL. Jeg har en del mer konkrete opplysninger rundt
familien, men lurer på om du sånn umiddelbart kan si om du har vært borti
denne familien?

Your entry: I have just discovered this site, and am heavily into my
genealogy. However, I don't have much of my Bredberg line discovered yet. Here
is what I know: - My grandfather was Albert A. Bredberg, 1868-1958, who was born
in Sweden and died in California, USA. - Albert's parents were Par Bredberg,
1804-1901, who married Breita (Martha) Hoglund (Hartman). - Par was born in
Altsjon Jamtland, Sweden. He was a Baptist minister. He had a brother, Jonas
Bredberg. - Albert had a sister, Karen Bredberg, who emmigrated to Canada. He
also had a brother (Name unknown). - Par had a sister, Froken (Miss) Johanna
Hoglund. I will very much appreciate any "ties" which anyone can find,
to my family. I will be very happy to share with you, whatever data I have.

on. Great information you have on here. I am looking for the family of Karoline
HANSDATTER/JOHNSON-who may have lived at the Sveen farm, in the vicinity of Dokka, Norway.
Karoline immigrated to the USA in 1885, and settled in Iowa. She brought at least 2
children with her. Edward(Even) Helmar Johnnesen, b. 1872 in Land. Parents were Johannes
Johannesen and Karoline Hansdatter on birth record. Anna Johnsen, b. 14 May 1883 in Dokka,
Norway to Karoline- but don't know if Johannes was her father. Karoline changed all their
names to Johnson, after arriving in the USA. She may have had a brother, Peter Hansen, who
also immigrated to the USA. Anna said she had a sister, Nettie. Having found Nettie's
marriage certificate, it lists her father as Ole FURUSITH and her mother as Karoline
SVEEN. Nettie married Ole BROVALD in the USA and lived in Bode, IOWA. Anna lived in
Rutland, Iowa and married Chris Gregerson, moving to Fort Dodge, Iowa in 1903. Karoline
was an expert seamstress and tailor. She never married in the USA and died in 1902. With
all the last names, and not much information, this family has been hard to search for. Any

Your entry: We are hoping to find more information on my husband's grandfather who
came to Canada from the U.S. after emigrating from Norway possibly in the 1890s. This is
what we have so far: Christian Pederson was born in Norway, probably in the 1870s, and as
a young man he and a brother emigrated to the United States, where Christian met and
married Carrie Fosmark. Carrie was born in North Dakota in 1884, the eldest daughter of
Johannes Johanneson Fosmark (born 1853 in Bruvik, Norway) and Anna Nielsden (born 1854 in
Stanghelle, Norway), who emigrated to the U.S. in 1880 and settled in Barnes County, North
Dakota, between Fargo and Bismarck. It is not known when or where the two Pederson
brothers parted company, but it is assumed that Christian lived in or near Barnes County,
where the Fosmark family lived. The brothers were supposed to have changed their surname
to Pederson from Kringlen (or similar) after arriving in the U.S. Christian and Carrie
Pederson came to Canada sometime between 1912 and 1916, and first settled near the town of
Asquith, Saskatchewan. Christian died in Saskatchewan in the late 1940s, and Carrie died
near Radisson, Saskatchewan in 1974 at the age of 90. Many thanks to anyone who can
provide further information. Barbara

at two different farms, Gurendal and Hjelseng, I believe the children went by the last
name of Antonsen. My ggrandmother was Sarah Eliassen born 1891. She lived at a place
called Lagmandsvik on Sagfjord. Also mentions a place called Sorgmansvik. Sarah's parents
were Elias and Sophie (Blix) Eliassen. Also looking for relatives of Kristoffer Emil

Your entry: I wrote here about a month ago, and since have had several people reply

hoping that I can connect with someone from Nordoyvagen on the island of Donna or ,
someone from Leirfjord particularly the Brejland farm. Both are in Nordland. I'm so very
thankful to everyone who has helped me. My grandparents came to America in 1903 and 1904 ,
first to Stoughton, Wisconsin and then up to Canada on the north shore of Lake Superior.
The countryside here is very similar to that about Oslo. We even have many of the same
trees, and other plants. Perhaps that is why so many Scandinavian people have settled
here. I'm hoping that perhaps one of my distant relatives is on the Net, and we can
compare notes. Thanks so much ! Annmargaret ( Breiland) Engberg mengberg@baynet.net

Your entry: My ALBERTSEN family came from Rise Parish, Svendborg, DK (on the island

ALBERTSEN sailed from Hamburg on the barque Wiedemann, arriving in Sydney in 1856. From
there, they went to the Peel River Diggings, near Tamworth in NSW. An Echo Friend on the
Fidonet BBS has told me he found decendants of an older brother, Albert ALBERTSEN (b.
1824), still living on Ærø. He has since fallen into a black hole, so I would love to
find out if it is true. The parents were Rasmus Hansen ALBERTSEN (b. 1876) and Johanne
ALBERTSDATTER (b.1798). He was originally a farmer, turned smallholder and (I believe)
carpenter. Other members of the family migrated to the U.S. Please contact me if you can
