Hi Dave, Can you tell us how you know the information below is your family? Have you found them in the 1801 census of Norway? Anne was not born on January 4, 1784, she was christened on that day according to Church Records. You need to be sure you are following the correct family in Norway. Margit ANNE CHRISTENSEN Female Event(s): Birth: Christening: 04 JAN 1784 Lom, Oppland, Norway Death: Burial: Parents: Father: CHRISTEN OLSEN Mother: MARITH HANSDR Messages: Extracted birth or christening record for the locality listed in the record.
