Anna Jakobene, wife of Adolf R. JOSUND, was her eldest child with her 1st husband. In the biography "Her mother and Mrs. Gablel Gedrose" - the word "and" should be a comma or the word "then" because Malene was married to Gabriel GEDROSE when they came from Norway. The name GEDROSE is the Americanization of the name. Gabriel's surname was GJEDRAAS in Norway but on the Passenger List it is shown as GEDERUS. Looks like there were numerous spellings of the name over time. Such fun :) I can't find any trace of your Anton on the 1910 Census of Norway or in any of the other indexed databases I have access to. Will keep my eyes open and let you know if I come across anything for him. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
