You are changing some of the information (perhaps mixing in names and locations from a different part of the family) - but these look like the same people.

Here is a "good possibility" of your Hans ENGEBRETSEN and Kari OLSDATTER in the 1875-telling: http://snipurl.com/rp9h They are living at Ulen (plads) in Sør-Fron, Oppland, with daughter Anna, born 1872 in Søndre Fron. It indicates that Kari was born in Ringebo, which could be in Oppland OR in Orkdal, Sør-Trøndelag. In the 1865-telling for Søndre Fron: http://snipurl.com/rp9x Hans ENGEBRETSEN (age 17) is living on the Midthammeren farm in Søndre Froens, with his parents Engrebret HANSEN and Anne ERLANDSDATTER, and his siblings Karn (13) and Morten (10). In the 1865-telling for Ørkedal, Sør-Trøndelag: http://snipurl.com/rpa4 There is one possibility - Kari OLSDATTER (age 19). She is working as a "Tjenestepige" (girl servant) on the Gjølmeslien farm in Ørkedal. HOWEVER, in the 1865-telling for Ringebo, Oppland: http://snipurl.com/rpah There is "another" possibility - Kari OLSDATTER (age 19), working on the Venaasen sønd øvre farm in Ringebo. It states she was born in Ørkedals. ----- As you will notice, Han's father's first name would not also be "Hans" if the patronymic is ENGEBRETSEN. So, I am not sure who your "Hans Engebretsen Piberstuen under Rusthage" might be. "Normally, Hans' father's name would be Engebret ?sen. Accordingly, in the 1801-telling for Froen: http://snipurl.com/rpc9 There are 34 people living on the Rusthage farm in Sødorp, Froen. I suggest you take a look and see if any of these people might connect to the people you are looking for. Accordingly, in the 1865-telling for Søndre Fron: http://snipurl.com/rpcn The farm name "appears" to be changed to Rolstadhagen. Living there are Ole ENGEBRETSEN (age 46) and his family. He may OR MAY NOT be related to Hans.

As far as I know, Ole and Olava had only two children, Henry and his brother John. Henry and Dorothea had four children, three of whom (Edna, Arthur and one unnamed) died before reaching maturity. Only Orlando, their son who was disabled due to a brain problem, lived to adulthood, but he had no children. Henry's brother John married Medora Bucknell, and they had 12 children. I would very much like to learn more about Dorothea and the Loe family. Please feel free to contact me directly at my email address. Timothy Ransom [email protected]

Mae, After searching FamilySearch and Norwegian Historical Data Centre (NHDC), I, found Christian, Anne and the six children. But I, too, cannot find a CHRISTIAN CHRISTIANSEN who would fit into this family structure. Are you sure he exists? Are you sure you have the right family?

There Iversen had a sister Marit Iversdatter marr. 1863 22 years old. She had many descendants here. Among them is my wife's brother-in-law. I hope that Virginia Anderson search here in Sel because Slettmoen is in Sel now, in Vågå 1865. In 1992 I passed through Fargo to meet my oldest daughter who had been an exchange student west of Grand Forks. My wife, I and our youngest daughter visited Minnesota SW among several places.

Surnames: Pedersen, Andersen Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/hcC.2ACE/1316 Message Board Post: My great grandfather Andrew Peterson was born early 1860 or late 1859 in Norway. On his death certificate his parents are listed as Peter Peterson and Gertie Anderson. He came to America in the early 1880s. (Settled in Wisconsin) I have found an Anders Pedersen baptized on Feb 19th 1860 in Jevnaker. His parents are listed as Peder Pedersen and Guri Andersdtr. He is listed with his parents in the 1865 census on the Loken farm but he is not listed with them in 1875 on the Mylskværn farm but is listed as a helper on the Raastad (Nystuen) farm. I have found a record of an Anders Pedersen from the Mylskværnen farm immigrating to America from Jevnaker in 1882. This seems like the correct Anders Pedersen but I am not sure. Any additional information about Anders would help. Thank You
