There is a Karen Anders. b. in Ostre Toten on 06 Mar 1832, bap there in 01 Apr 1832. Father: Anders Nielsen Lae, Mo. Berthe Tollefsd. I would suspect that this is your Karen for these reasons: 1) one or more of the godparents at Matheas baptism were from Lae 2) Karen and Mathias' second daughter was named Berthe which matches with the tradition of the second daughter being named after her maternal grandmother. 3) father's name matches what you found in the census Garth ----- Original Message ----- From: "Margit" <[email protected]> To: "Oppland" <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, January 09, 2007 12:20 PM Subject: [Opp] Karen Andersdatter b.06 Jan 1832/1833 Osten Toten Sandy is looking for help and is having trouble posting to the list.

Karen Andersdatter b. 06 Jan 1832/1833 Osten Totens. They were married 11 July 1859 Vardal, Oppland. They are found on the 1865 Census , Kirkebye ovre. Mathea Mathiassen, their daughter was born 01 Nov 1861 at Gjovik, Vardal, Oppland. My help is needed finding all the information on this family that I can. The family came to America before 1870. I can find them on Census in the USA. Mathias died shortly after arriving in America and Karen remarried a John C Johnson (tailor by trade) also born in Norway. Looking forward finding other families of interest.
