Esten Hugdal was my gguncle from Sor Trondelag, Norway. He and his wife emigrated to Wisconsin in 1888. The family lived in the Soknedal/Storen area, south of Trondheim. Nord Trondelag and Sor Trondelag totally embrace Trondheim in Central Norway. In Norway. They have Farm and Family History Books called Bygdeboks. Many of us have some of these. As yet, I have not found Olina Hugdal Oien, Bertha Hugdal Moen or Olaf Hugdahl, but I am searching. It would be my guess that their given names would be Olava and Berit. I cannot help you with Olga and Alfred, but I would guess that he is a Swedish SteEn. The Hugdal/Hugdahls were definitely Tronders. I would suggest that you stay on this list, because I will be back to talk to you. But, also subscribe to the Trondelag List. It is made up on "Tronders" in both of the Trondelag areas above and people related to Trondelag fylkes (counties) and also from other parts of Norway. The Listers are proficient in helping this kind of research with information concerning a well pinpointed area of Norway. You can go to ([email protected]) and "subscribe". It may be approaching the research backwards, but I can almost guarantee success for you. Keep in touch, and I hope you will find relatives and others researching the same surnames. Ardell Drube
