Hallo everybody I'm doing some research on the origin of our family and the name 'Schuiki'. My ancestors have been living in the southern part of Austria for many generations. The name 'Schuiki' and its variation ('Schoiki') are very uncommon in Austria. Nobody in our family can tell where the origins of this name are and what other foreign name it might be derived from. One theory says that the name 'Schuiki' goes back to two Swedish brothers who came to Austria as soldiers and stayed in the country a few centuries ago. Much to my surprise, I found via internet that there are people in Sweden with the name of 'Schuisky' which might have a similar origin as 'Schuiki'. Now my question to the newsgroup: Does anybody know if the name 'Schuiki' or 'Schoiki' exists in Sweden? Could 'Schuiki' be a variation of another Swedish name, 'Schuisky' for example? Any answer or comment would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you very much for your help! Ernst Schuiki, Zurich, Switzerland ernstschuiki@bluewin.ch

Hei alle sammen. Jeg arbeider med slektsforskning i Norge, mer bestemt i Tune kommune nær den svenske grensen. Familienavnet er JAKOBSEN, som er skipsbyggere. Jeg har lagt ut 1700 personer, men har 10000 personer i basen min. Ta en titt og se om det er noen av dere som har slektninger her i Tune i Norge. Lykke til! http://home.world-online.no/~robbin/slektsforskning Hej so long!:)

Kan detta vara något? http://www.rsv.se/folkbokforing/forsamlingar/index.html /hpw

I saw someone found living Scandinavian relatives simply by posting to this newsgroup, so I will give it a try too. My great great grandparents lived in GYRSTINGE near Ringsted, Denmark. RASMUS LARSEN born 11 Mar 1823 at Vester Egedesborg, Presto. Died after 1906. married 1859 to BIRTHE MARIE HENRIKSDATTER who was born 1835 at Terslev, Forslev, died 1894 in Gyrstinge. Their children all born in Gyrstinge: LARS CHRISTIAN RASMUSSEN born 13 Dec 1859, went to America about 1880 (my great grandfather). ANE KATHRINE RASMUSSEN born 27 Mar 1861, went to America about 1880. HENRIETTE MARIE JOHANNE RASMUSSEN born 18 Oct 1872, married 30 Nov 1893 at Gyrstinge to PEDER OLSEN born 7 Dec 1866 in Pedersborg-Soro. Their children all born in Gyrstinge: ANNA MARGRETE OLSEN born 22 Jan 1894 BIRTHE MARIE OLSEN born 26 Dec 1896 MARIE EMILIE OLSEN born 29 Ma 1902 Roberta Olson Mueller rlm@camano.net

Found Hanley Falls History book, just southwest of Granite Falls to add to the books that I have.Then I also have a series of books from the Sisseton, SD area, but most of them do not have an index--so more difficult to research. Ardell Sortomme Drube of Colorado

dear all, could anyone tell me if the name Odlin descended from any vikings as my grandmother used to tell me. thanks Sue

I am trying to trace my Norwegian ancestry and so far have been reasonably successfull but I am finding a few people who do not seem to fit into the family jigsaw puzzle. The family surname is LYNNEBERG sometimes spelt as LYNEBERG in the old Norwegian census ie 1865. Can anybody help me with the following: My grandfather's sister Helga Brunhild Lynneberg had in her possession (unfortunately this has gone missing since her death in New Zealand) a diary from one of the Lynneberg ancestors who served as a colonel of artillery under Catherine the Great in 18th Century Russia. It was a copy made by a family historian who lived in Paris at the turn of the century. I am told it was written in German. I have personally seen this diary when Helga was alive but I don't remember it being in German I thought it could have been Norwegian. Can anyone throw any light on this or inform me where I could start looking for information on this missing relative. He may of course be someone I have already found but have no background information on. Any help will be appreciated. If needed I can be contacted at DLynneberg@xtra.co.nz Dene Lynneberg --

Do you know where your Andersons in Norway come from? My gg grandfather emigrated to America with most of his children, some of them called themselves Anderson. His name was Anders Larson Tre Utåker and he emigrated around 1865 (or a bit later, I have it in my papers) regards Kelly Petit
