Thanks for any assistance. Pedersen i a "fathers name", where "sen" is the same as "son". Thus Pedersen is the "son" of Peder. The farm name often was added after the fathers name. eirik

Hi Gordon! Farm names shoule be considered an address that were later taken as surnames. Maybe this will help: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~maggiebakke/naming.html Olaf In the records of Hvaler, Østfold, Norway (1700's) I see many farm names such as Seylöe, Sannöe, Spier, Haugge, Ørdal, etc. etc. But I see no farm names reflecting the names of people who lived there. Such as Pedersen, Jacobsen, Nilsen, etc. Do the farm names predate the system of adding "sen" after a fathers first name? Or are the farm names a descriptive name or term of some sort?

Ross, In addition to the extensive answer from Hugh below, may be added: According to the norwegian surname search on http://www.ssb.no/navn/ there are only 6 people using the surname Fullerton presently in Norway.

Hi all! Olaf, Wade and I have been having lots of fun working on the Ulvestad translations for all to view and read for free. It appears that one thing that was consistent throughout is the mention of the oxen. Think of how important they were to all the immigrants to get around in their travels. If you have never seen oxen, here is a picture of the last pair of oxen in Norman County Minnesota. They were owned by Peder Andersen Sakrismo who came from Trøndelag to America at the beginning of 1900. He was grandpa to the 3.5 Twins down the road. :-) http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~maggiebakke/oxen.jpg http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~maggiebakke/ulvestad.html Enjoy! Margit

I am seeking information about Peder Lauritson, born ca1640-50 at Kvam in Strand (supposed to be listed on pg. 349 in Strand bygdebok). He later moved to Finnøy parish. His father is Laurits Opsal in Finnøy, who resided for a time on Kvam in Strand. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Maybe there exists some similar Norwegian surname, but I can't remember any at the moment... Cheers! Espen

The Brugge Homepage from the Netherland and Germany The familyname Brugge is widespread and of frequent occurence in the Netherlands as well in Great-Britain, Canada and America. In the province of Zeeland, Noor-Holland and Groningen there is a large number of people with the familyname Brugge. In Groningen the name Brugge is of frequent occurrence in and around Hoogezand-Sappemeer. As well in Groningen, the procincial town, this branch is nice representatived. Out of my investigation has occured that the name Brugge was known in Great-Britain since 1328, and I must assume that this, according many German firstnames, the name Brugge originally is from Germany. My attention is now focused on to map out the family Brugge in Groningen. This branch Is originally from Germany. 12-02-1757, in the place Haren-Munsterland, Berent Hendriks Brügge was born. He married Helena (Leentje) Jans on the 16th of November 1781 in a Cathlic church in Kleinemeer. This is a hamlet near Sappemeer. He established himself there as a tailor in Kiel-Winneweer and stayed there until his death. If you have any interest in this branch or any material in the shape of documents, photographs Or other material please contact me! During 250 years the Brugges were flying all directions all over the Netherlands and the rest of the world. Do you know or do you have any idea that your parents, grandparents are from the north of the Netherlands, mail me so I can go on with your information. Have a nice day Jan Brugge http://members.home.nl/jbrugge

Is there anyone on this newsgroup who has the "Gamle Suldal, Gards- og ættesoge" Personregister, published in 1995 by Jørg Eirik Waula, who would be willing to do a lookup for me? Jakob Salomonsen married Ingeborg Mikkelsen in Suldal parish, ca1676. I am trying to figure out which farm they lived on so I might find more information about them. Thank you for any help!
