Thank you, Leonard! :-) I saw several entries with Forthun Indgang listed as the place of baptism..., so if Indgang means the same in Dano-Norsk, then I guess I have to wonder if the baptismal font is at the front entrance of the church.

I need a definition for the word "Indgang." Digitalarkivet Birth/Baptism Record Born 8 Aug 1867, Baptized 8 Sept 1867 at Forthun Indgang, Lars Olsen, legitimate birth; Parents are hmd Ole Pedersen Holmstad og hustru Marthe Larsdatter. Source information: Sogn og Fjordane county, Luster, Parish register (official) nr. A 8 (1860-1870), Birth and baptism records 1867, page 73. Permanent pagelink: http://www.arkivverket.no/URN:kb_read?idx_kildeid=8402&idx_id=8402&uid=ny&idx_side=-73 Record #102, In the baptism column under Sept 8 is the note "Forthun Indgang." I can't find the word Indgang in Otto's dictionary or in my Haugen's dictionary. It seems to me I should know the meaning of Indgang, but I've been puzzling over this for a couple of days and I have no clue what the meaning of the word is (or have forgotten, if I ever did know). Mange takk in advance for your help! :-) Beste hilsen, Bev

in June 2 2002 Regina Severson posted this email. I would like to this Sivertsen family from Malselv, Troms. Richard Engan Hello Jean: The families that I have been researching for six years....Sivertsens, Kristiansens, ended up in Wisconsin, BUT they migrated from Alvdal and Dovre (near Tynset) in the early 1800's. I was told that land became available in the north for them to clear and farm (sort of like homesteading?), and since the land was becoming scarce many, many, many people moved north. I am sure the migration was much higher than hundreds....The source of my information is family in Malselv, Troms (close to Bardu). Don't know if this is entirely correct, but in a few more decades land had become so scarce & living so hard that immigration on to America began. That is my understanding. Regina Severson

Bev, Even today, I've heard from women in England, in the High Anglican tradition, who bemoan that the "churching" ceremony, as it's called there, has disappeared. They don't think of it as allowing them back into church after being "unclean" after giving birth, but rather that the time away from church, and indeed most other social activities, is a time for them to be alone with the newborn to bond. For them the time away is special, and so is the celebration of them as new mothers when they return to church.I think also that centuries ago, women who'd just given birth were very prone to infections, etc, so they really needed to be protected from germs, etc, even if the cultures didn't understand germs. They did know that women and their newborns died at a horrendous rate. Therefore, a time of sequestration was a good idea for both. When it was over, they were welcomed and celebrated back into society. Since the center of society was the church, that's where it happened. Not my thing, but I do sort of see where they were coming from.

I believe the baptismal font was placed at the front entrance in the Swedish tradition because the mother was not allowed at the altar for a specific period of time because she was not clean after birth. I don't know if the Norwegian church followed the same practice.

Dear Listers! I have another brick wall challenge for you today: Johannes Torstenson Elvethun born in Hafslo parish, Luster Co., Norway July 6, 1861 was a baker apprentice in Bergen, but then emigrated in 1881 to Stoughton, WI was back to visit Norway in 1884 and reemigrated in 1885. The 1900 census shows John T. Elverton as a single baker, residing at Hamilton, Ravalli Co., MT, which is the last I can find of him! All we know for sure is that he had died prior to 1940! What became of John? Did he ever leave Hamilton? Maybe John Elverton's name figures in newspaper articles from back then? Thanks a million in advance for any suggestions! Very sincerely yours, Lars E. Oyane
