    2. I have been trying to track down my grandmother's siblings with no luck. My grandmother Ragnhild Reinertsdatter was born on Kylleberg (Lista) in 1891. She shows up in the 1900 census on Stave (Lista) with her sister Agnes born 1894. LDS microfilm records show they had six more siblings (Teodora, Oskar, Rikard, Eleanore, Henny and Torleif) born between 1876 and 1896 -- the first four born on Vinneim (Lista) and the last two on Kylleberg. Since their father was a peddler (handelsmand skræppekarl), the family does not appear in the Lista bygdebok on any of those three farms (Kylleberg, Vinneim and Stave). I also found a confirmation record for one of the siblings (Eleanore) that shows her living on Stave on 22 April 1900 yet she does not show up on Stave in the census. Does anyone have any suggestions on other sources I might use to get more information on these missing siblings? Roy Boylan Hershey, PA, USA
