Born 8/9/1969 - one month after his father Olaus & mother Elen arrived in Wisconsin from Haldorshavn (Sør-Trondelag) Norway. They settled near Rice Lake, Wisconsin where the farm still is. He and his father Olaus had a falling out, and he left sometime before 1898. They heard from him once or twice, the last time from Baker City, Oregon, then never again. He had 15 siblings, 8 of whom lived to adulthood. We wonder if he went to the Klondike, or if he settled in Washington state? Anyone out there with a Halvorson relative with that birthdate??
