Hello from South Dakota. I received this info from Rose Fatland Toupal, the aunt of the young man I originally talked to. Her parents were Guy and Mary Fatland, who lived here in Kimball, SD. Does this information move things in the right direction? I’m trying to convince Rose to join the group, but I guess for now, I’ll be a go-between. Please advise what other info is needed. Thank you in advance of any help you can give she and Justin.

My great-grandparents : Brit Oliver Fatland Born 1852--- Died 1933 Married Elsa Serina Berhow Born 1857---Died 1938 Children Cora b.1875 Oscar b. 1877 William b.1878 ( My grandfather) Nettie b.1881 Nora b. 1887 Henrietta b. 1886 Vida b. 1889 Evelyn b.1891 Elsie b. 1893 Ernest b. 1895 Thelma b. 1899 Wow that's a lot of children. It says that my Granddad also married a Berhow. Interesting . I have a booklet FARM AND FAMILY HISTORY OF FATLAND . (TRANSLATED FROM NORWEIGIAN BY SVENN-ERIK MAMELUND) in the fall of 2001. It is many pages I can make copies and snail mail. Running late, talk later. Rose --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. http://www.avast.com

Steve, It would be good to know where both Brit Oliver Fatland and Elsa Serina Berhow were born and died, in specific terms. That info is probably in the translated book she has. I'm assuming, but could be wrong, that they were both b. in Norway and at some point emigrated and d. in the US. Would also be useful to know where their children were b. The children's names sound American, not Norwegian. They may be Americanized Norwegian names. Rose says Brit Fatland was also married to a Berhow, but Elsa's name was Berhow, so unless Elsa died and he married another woman with the same name, probably a sister or cousin, that's probably a duplicate name. I'm partly interested because of my own Fatland family, of course. One of my Fatlands, who emigrated with her parents in 1875, also had the middle name of Serina. Don't know if that means anything at all. This is a good start, with some fill in information.
