Anyone want a challenge? I can't find a marriage. I have been known to miss entries before, but so far I can't find this one. Here we go. Møller (that is his real first given name) Johan Lauritzen was born 19 Mar 1877 in Selvær in Nordland, and he was christened in Træna on May 10. On the 1910 census he is still in Træna Sokn and is still single. Olga Emilie Lorentsdatter was born 15 Mar 1892 in Handå and was christened in Nesna in Nordland on 27 November. On the 1910 census she is still in Nesna sokn and is still single. The 2 volume Slekten Ellingsen books say they married 1 June 1913, but it does not say where. I looked in Træna, Lurøy, Nesna, and Hemnes. The Ellingsen book shows the 1st child in 1918, but again not where. Møller died in Nesna in 1960, and Olga died there in 1983. Where would you suggest I look for their marriage? Thanks for your suggestions and help. Edward A. Scriven Layton, Utah Always be Happy!!

Dear Listers!

Hi Listers, Someone on the list gave me the name and email address of a lady at a genealogy society in Eidskog, Hedmark, Norway.
