This page has births on from Søndre og Nordre Land. I found some Oline's, but not with a father Hans Hansen.

These are my current interests in Oppland. I am trying to determine the birth date of an Oline Hansdtr my ggrandmother. She married Peder Olsen of Jørandlien, Land, Oppland (Kristian amt) 31 Jan 1847 in the Aamodt (Torpen) Kirke. The church record gives her age as 24 (b. 1823?) and her father as Hans Hansen) They had the children Ole (b. 1848), Hans (b. 1851 d. 1861), Andreas (b. 1854), Martin (b. 1857) all on the same farm (aka Jørdalan et al). Two additional children Anton (b. 1861) (my grandfather) and Helene (b. 1864) on Bjerke, Torpen, Land, Oppland. Peder Olsen died 9 Mar 1865 on Bjerke farm. In the 1865 census, Oline (age 40, b. 1826? in Lands Prgj.) appears at Hellerud farm Torpen, Land, Oppland as a lodger and day worker with the 2 youngest children. Ole (age 18) is a servant at Jøranlien, Torpen, Land, Oppland; Andres (age 12) is charity at Bjærke, Torpen, Land, Oppland; Martin (age 9) is charity at Fosum lille, Torpen, Land, Oppland. In the 1875 census, Oline (b. 1823 in WARDAL (Vardal)) is a servant at Frøsland, Nordre Land, Oppland. Ole is married to Randi Hansdtr with children at Bækkesveen, Nordre Land. Andreas is a servant at Jørandlidhaugen, Nordre Land. Martin is a servant at Jørandlien Sønd, Nordre Land. Anton is a servant at Lunde, Nordre Land. Hellene is a servant at Grøtaasen. As I said, I am looking for the birth of Oline Hansdtr probably in 1823 but could be as late as 1826. I was Unable to find Oline in the Torpen, Land, Oppland (Kristian amt) church books for the time with Hans Hansen as father. I have checked those for Vardal (Wardal), Oppland (Kristian) around 1823 and could not find an Oline whose father was Hans Hansen (as the marriage record indicates). Possibly there is information on the farm that could assist in my search. From the marriage record it appears that Oline was possibly a servant on the farm before the marriage to Peder Olsen. Peder is the descendant in a line that has been on the farm for quite awhile. I have different spellings of the farm name including Gjørdalen, Jordalien, etc. Some of these farms amy not be correct and I am confusing similarly named farms, I thought I had Peder Olsen's lineage correct but I may have crossed into different farms. The farm Jørdalien is in Torpen (Torpa, Aamodt), Land, Kristian amt (Oppland). Possibly the Bjerke farm might have information as well. Thank you if you can be of any help in this search.

You will find what was once known as Ourdahl now divided into the parishes of Sør-Aurdal and Nordre Aurdal. Also, what was once Christians Amt is now known as Oppland fylke.

I hope that I am not to late to put family on for the roll call! I am looking for a Vellech Velleksen born 1773-74 in Vardal, Oppland, Norway. His wife Marit Hansdatter was born 1768-69. They were married on October 13, 1799. I have found them on the 1801 census for Vardal. I was hoping that someone could tell me who the parents are of these two. Thank you Roxanne White Nebraska

I have ancestors from three areas of Oppland: 1. Jevnaker in Hadeland. They left from Gjørve (Jørve), a cottar under Sogn. Other farms in Hadeland are: Kjørve, Bolken, Ballangrud, Bratval, Gunstad, and more. The immigrants were Jorve or Jerve in Minnesota. 2. Valdres area, mostly from Nord Aurdal, the Rye farm but also Rugnos, Graneim/Granum, Kulturstad, Revling, Sundem, plus others there and in Slidre (Semelenge), Sør Aurdal (Øyhus, Olmhus). The immigrants were Rear in Wisconsin and Minnesota. 3. Gudbrandsdal, Ringebu from the very early 1800's: Høystad, Kleven, Kolstad. My gggrandfather moved to Nord Trøndelag and my grandfather emigrated from Nordland. Of the family in Jevnaker, my great grandfather had several nephews and a niece who emigrated to New York State and used the patrynomic name Borgersen there--children of Borger Gundersen and Sigrid Eriksdtr. If this sounds familiar to anyone on the list, I would love to hear from you! Thanks, Joy

Margit You're exactly right. I've been able to get info on Rena, but not her husband. Can I get their marriage certificate? Carl lived first in Eau Claire and then Washburn, WI. In the 1910 Washburn(Bayfield Cty) census, it shows him living with his sister Marie Saxhaug. Their father must have already left by then.

I'm trying to find out about people named Granum from Nordre Aurdal, Oppland, some of whom migrated to Minnesota. Family legend has it that the name originated in Roman days, and is Latin for grain. I've noticed a few other farm names in Oppland ending in "um" or "em," and I wonder if anyone else has an explanation. The Granums are my (ex)-in-laws--my own Norwegian relatives are from Hardangerfjord. I'm taking a trip to Norway with my kids this summer, and the first leg of our journey will be by train from Oslo to Bergen. I thought it would be nice for my son to learn about his paternal ancestor's home as well as his maternal ones. Rachel in Anchorage

Barbara, You need to do more homework. :-)) I checked the online marriage records and birth records and did not get any of the names below to come up. These are at ancestry.com and are for before 1907. Get a copy of your grandfather's birth and death certificate. Then think about finding the parents marriage certificate. Ask relatives questions. You need actual facts when dealing with genealogy. You should be able to get a copy of his death certificate from the funeral home, or the county he died in (Carl Emil). That should state where he was born. Margit > > Margit > You're exactly right. I've been able to get info on Rena, but not her > husband. Can I get their marriage certificate?

I have located my grandmother's background in the Lillejevne and Bergum farms in Kvam, Nord-Fron, Oppland County. I located by grandfather's background at the Granmorken, Nystuen and Tommesstuen farms in Sordorp, Nord-Fron, Oppland County. All of these farms existed in the 1900 census and I had distant relatives on the farms. Does anyone know if they still exist or if there are any historical maps pointing to the location of these farms? Roger Phillips jingles02@earthlink.net Why Wait? Move to EarthLink.
