Hei Erik, Attached are the only pages I thought you might find of interest. #1 & 2 are about the Sorum families. #3 is a photo including Con Ronning. Will do some more online research to see if I can come up with anything further. My dad was born and raised in Norway Township, so I have family living in Hillsboro (cousins & a nephew). If you send me a copy of the photo you have, they might be able to come up with something at the local historical society. Have a nice day!

I have also seen the name Ronningen been written Ronning in the family that emigrated to America. My relative was Berthe Maria Torgersdatter Rønningen/Rønning born 1835 in Torpa, Nordre Land who emigrated to America in 1857 and married shortly after to Andreas Johannesen Sorum born 1833. They lived at first in (probably Waukon area?) ,Allamakee County ,Iowa ,and then moving in the 1870s to Hillsboro, ND. It is Berthe`s father Torger Torgersen Aure/Rønningen born 1806 that I believe is pictured on the picture taken by Skrivseth. I can`t be sure though ,since it might be Andreas father Johannes Ostensen Sorum 1799-1882 as well. I believe it is Torger since the picture is taken in Hillsboro where Torger lived while Johannes lived and is buried in Waukon ,Iowa. I don`t think Johannes would have gone to Hillsboro to take a picture of himself at Skrivseth in 1882 even if his son Andreas lived there.....(Johannes died in October 1882 (haven`t confirmed if he died in Waukon or Hillsboro). Not sure when Skrivseth started in Hillsboro in 1882 ,but if Johannes took a picture there in 1882 it had to be before October. Johannes wife Marit Hansdatter died in 1892 ,and I guess she also would have got a picture taken too since she was still alive in 1892. A link to Johannes burial: https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/38775926/johannes-ostenson-sorum I have looked through findagrave for Torger Torgerson ,but haven`t found him. He shall have died sometime 1890-1895 ,but apparently the lack of churchrecords for the area makes it impossible to find the exact date ,and the 1890 census is probably destroyed. Torger did emigrate together with his grandson in 1885 ,but it was after the 1885 census was taken ,so none of them are in that census either. -----Opprinnelig melding----- Fra: Clark Pederson [mailto:repete009@gol.com] Sendt: 25. juli 2018 03:23 Til: norway@rootsweb.com <mailto:norway@rootsweb.com> ; Erik Hov <mailto:gj_erov7@bbnett.no> <gj_erov7@bbnett.no> Emne: [NOR] Re: Photographer in Hillsboro, ND.... Hei Erik, I have Hillsboro, North Dakota - The First Hundred Years. It isn't indexed; so give me some time to browse through it and make copies of any pages that might be of interest to you. I do know that the Ronningen name was shortened to Ronning by some..... Have a nice day! Clark in Japan On 25-Jul-18 7:34 AM, Erik Hov wrote: Thanks!. Took a look at both links Annette provided ,and got a bit more info!. Looks like he operated in Hillsboro 1882 to 1896 ,but don`t seem to be said if he was on the "Cor. City Hall Block address all the time. Gregory mentioned the Traill County history book....does anyone have it? If not ,I can contact Traill County historical society!.
