Wi Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Wi/EauClaire/545 Surname: Bruden, Torgerson, Lund ------------------------- Hi Bruden seekers- Ole Olesen Bruden had several siblings including his sister Ronaug Olsdatter Bruden who was married to my great great grandfather Ever Torgerson. Here's a sample of my information - Iver Bruden's son Ole Iverson Bruden married Kari O. and they had 6 children - Tora O., Anne O., Ole O., Iver O., Marit O. and Ronaug O. I only have 4 children for Ole Olesen Bruden and Anne Skansen (Karine, Matia, Peder, Tobias)but my information says they had a big family. Are they the ones to survive to adulthood? I also have Tora Olsdatter Bruden marrying Ole Sevaldsen Lund and having 8 children - Sevald, Marit, KARI, Ann, Oleana, Toro, Ida and Severine. Then I have KARI Lund marrying Lars Stever and they had 6 children - Ingebret, Ellen, Martin, Tena, Odin, and LAURA Caroline Stever. LAURA Caroline Stever then married Louis Larson having Kenneth, Agnes, Margaret, Gertrude, Willard, Eleanor, Theressa and Russell. I have a charming autobiography of the Bruden family by Ever Torgerson from 1926 and a copy of the Lund family tree which is quite extensive. If you would like a copy of either let me know. Sorry this post is so long, I got a little excited seeing others researching this family! Would love to exchange any information you have!
