Hello. I tried to search for these once before ,but not much luck so I try again. My greatgreatgrandfather`s brother was named Ole Bernt Andreas Mathiesen and was born in Borgund/Ålesund ,møre og Romsdal County ,Norway 7 Nov 1871. He was son of Ole Mathias Christensen Skarbøvik (1833-1925) and Ivrine Olave Jensdatter Helle (1830-1915) I don`t know when Ole Bernt Andreas went to US ,but he did ,and took the name Bernard Mathison in US. He lived in Brooklyn(??) and was married to a Ellen Olson ,born dec 1869 in Sweden. In 1900 they lived in New York City ,Kings County ,NY and had a daughter Alice Sofie ,born in Brooklyn 4 Mar ,christened 20 Mar 1900. They lived at address 73 Clermont Ave in Brooklyn? 1900 ,and Bernard died in Brooklyn 4 May 1901. Bernard is listed as being born in dec 1870 in the 1900 census ,but it has to be the one I`m looking for. What my greatgrandmother`s sister told me was that "Bernt" emigrated to US was married to Ellen from Sweden ,and that Bernt died quite early and Ellen returned to Sweden with the children.". My problem is that I don`t know where in Sweden Ellen was from or her parents. Wonder if anyone can help me find the marriage of Bernard Mathisen/Mathison/Mathiesen/Mathieson etc and Ellen Olson/Olsson/Olsen etc in New York?? Thanks in advance for any help. Erik in Norway
