    3. I located Ranveig Takvam's obituary and the cemetery in which she is buried. On Tuesday, May 7, 1937, at her home, 134 Elmwood street, Valley Stream, Ranveig Takvam, beloved wife of Olaf. Services at the Machen Mortuary, 52 Clinton Avenue, Rockville Centre, Tuesday May 14, at 10 a.m. The Reverend Carl A. Nutzhorn of Holy Trinity Lutheran church, Rockville Centre, officiating. Interment at Greenfield cemetery, Hempstead, Long Island. It appears that you are only looking for information on Ranveig. I did find one of Olaf's two daughters from his second marriage to Stella Kazanecki; She is living in New Jersey.

To: [email protected] Date: Saturday, May 13, 2017, 5:46 AM Dear Annette and other Listers! Thanks a million, Annette, f0r your wonderful message!  You have apparently found another newspaper site which can be useful and which seems to be entirely free! So, now we know at least where Ranveig lived at the time she died (by the way, it was 1937!), and that seems to be as close as we can get! I have already seen her petition for naturalization, so no need to send that. Thanks again for making the NORWAY List such a great one! Very sincerely yours, Lars E.

    3. Dear Sarah, Don, Annette and other listers! Thank you so much, Sarah, for sending me Ranveig’s complete obituary, confirming her place of death as well as giving us information about mortuary and cemetery! Wonderful! It is correct that I am not looking for Olaf’s children from his 2nd marriage, BUT I would be interested in learning: ** The exact date and place of Olaf Takvam’s 2nd marriage to Stella Kazanecki, presumably about 1938/1939? Thanks again for your brilliant assistance in this matter! Very sincerely yours, Lars E.
