Here she spent her childhood. In 1882 she came to Norman County, where she has resided ever since with the exception of a year which she spent at Audubon, Minn. On April 14, 1883, she was married to John Nysetvold and they have resided on their home farm near Flom ever since. To this marriage four children were born, Ingeborg, John and Henry, all of Flom, and Ole of Twin Valley. She is also survived by a brother, Anders Stuedal of Flom, a sister, Mrs. Anne Bloom of Helena, Mont., and another sister in Norway. The deceased had been a very active member of the Immanuel church, being a charter member of the congregation. During the past years her health had been failing and on Wednesday, April 10, 1935, she answered the summons which brought her life to a close. The deceased was laid to rest in Aspelund Cemetery Monday afternoon, a very large concourse of friends being gathered both at the home and in the church. The Aspelund choir rendered two selections and the quartet one. The pastor, Rev. Amundson, preached the funeral sermon. Thus another of the sturdy pioneers has joined the ranks of those who have gone before. Reaching the mature age of almost seventy-eight years, she lived to see the wilderness turned into a prosperous community and had taken an active part in its development. Of very kind and helpful nature, and loved by all with whom she came in contact, she is mourned by many. Blessed be her memory.</span><br /><br /></span><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjr3W-kitRadMvreL-3Z81xVy6O7FdPDnYg6-nD_-x3Sm8UwMKf64FVccWj35LOkiRyFXJVO8kjqCTfLkypVMCYCZh05MsWnIM9xNUperR3MdTfYoJ9VXqgpTdD2D4-hso5yDFUKHfSIQ3e/s1600-h/gurijohn.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjr3W-kitRadMvreL-3Z81xVy6O7FdPDnYg6-nD_-x3Sm8UwMKf64FVccWj35LOkiRyFXJVO8kjqCTfLkypVMCYCZh05MsWnIM9xNUperR3MdTfYoJ9VXqgpTdD2D4-hso5yDFUKHfSIQ3e/s400/gurijohn.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5166880053607201490" border="0" /></a><span style="font-style: italic;font-size:85%;" ><span style="font-weight: bold;">Guri & John in the 1920's</span></span><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEix8MdgveYmy5igFdyeNZV793rXY9ceE1icR8AqfxohGr1AQBQAa9RC8enjS9CoDDGlg9fFuXXKszK4aWAuGuRqjCich3tju9xDznBqioDJ5nei7I-4kRdlOK6X9I7fKD6p_7ie4Vd7U0h5/s1600-h/farmmm.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEix8MdgveYmy5igFdyeNZV793rXY9ceE1icR8AqfxohGr1AQBQAa9RC8enjS9CoDDGlg9fFuXXKszK4aWAuGuRqjCich3tju9xDznBqioDJ5nei7I-4kRdlOK6X9I7fKD6p_7ie4Vd7U0h5/s400/farmmm.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5166876175251733186" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">John & Guri Nysetvold Farm in Flom Township</span><br /><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfJpzkgTel3Wq6h8zHEHZk5poTZfp2C4cjB17r0J1f_0PhKDbDfFbg3-Clv4E3zzGNSiqJ5W4gvEdojXLR6tlqIk0KMhdqydhILLJg8u-YUoQA_PZzXmE9en7i4uG-xihxTAJgYelAaSj1/s1600-h/nysetvold.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfJpzkgTel3Wq6h8zHEHZk5poTZfp2C4cjB17r0J1f_0PhKDbDfFbg3-Clv4E3zzGNSiqJ5W4gvEdojXLR6tlqIk0KMhdqydhILLJg8u-YUoQA_PZzXmE9en7i4uG-xihxTAJgYelAaSj1/s400/nysetvold.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5161758246962506770" border="0" /></a><span style="font-style: italic;font-size:85%;" ><span style="font-weight: bold;">John, Guri, Ingeborg, Ole & Henry taken about 1891 in Flom Township</span></span><br /><br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEip_8nAp9PYsRj5-cMKLNkVL8cDDpkhiphnbAjQ2rpPXSMHa1C2UpglRPWPBi5xNue_YqlRBku-QqA6YR2XhZxX8ZR06yumXXb0iKXZ-OymkJe2uaePl3f5Ja1fFfOkWVCWnAkxnLVoMDvC/s1600-h/3kidsnyset.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEip_8nAp9PYsRj5-cMKLNkVL8cDDpkhiphnbAjQ2rpPXSMHa1C2UpglRPWPBi5xNue_YqlRBku-QqA6YR2XhZxX8ZR06yumXXb0iKXZ-OymkJe2uaePl3f5Ja1fFfOkWVCWnAkxnLVoMDvC/s400/3kidsnyset.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5161735324722047858" border="0" /></a><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;font-size:85%;" >Henry, Johnny, Ole & Ingeborg about 1910<br />Children of John & Guri Nysetvold</span><br /></div>Children:<br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkNuTLa7IIKFbL2BzI3C2bH5z-V6Ta5gZdOUZivvtqJPLGJ7-_aGsMRY1QTrW-TgMIiljsxoGlFvsV3pMaGgYBBMbvg1yZovGnoc8eCzIQC7Xwx_5uwgpRTD_qy2Raev7GMJuw4A9IP7ag/s1600-h/ingeborg.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkNuTLa7IIKFbL2BzI3C2bH5z-V6Ta5gZdOUZivvtqJPLGJ7-_aGsMRY1QTrW-TgMIiljsxoGlFvsV3pMaGgYBBMbvg1yZovGnoc8eCzIQC7Xwx_5uwgpRTD_qy2Raev7GMJuw4A9IP7ag/s400/ingeborg.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5166873924688870050" border="0" /></a><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;font-size:85%;" >Ingeborg Caroline Nysetvold</span><br /></div><br />Ingeborg Caroline (1883-1961) never married<br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Obituary </span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Ingeborg Nysetvold Funeral Service at Aspelund Monday</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Funeral services for Ingeborg C.

The county covers an area of 6,030 square miles (15,600 square kilometers), and is made up of five regions: Hardanger, which stretches from the coast up into the mountain area called Hardangervidda; Voss, which is an inland farming region; and the three coastal regions: Sunnhordland, Midthordland and Nordhordland. Most of the population of Hordaland live in towns along or near the fjords and coastline.<br />Hordaland fylke is split from southwest to northeast by the Hardangerfjorden, the second largest fjord in Norway. This great tourist attraction extends 114 miles (183 kilometers) from the Atlantic ocean into Hordaland county. An eastern branch of the Hardangerfjord, the Eidfjord, extends 15 miles (24 kilometers) to the quaint village of Vik near the Vøringfoss, a waterfall 535 feet (163 meters) high. A southern branch of the Hardangerfjord, the Sørfjord, divides the mountain plateu called the Hardangervidda. At the head of Sørfjord are the village of Odda and the famous Skjeggedalsfoss, a waterfall 525 feet (160 meters) high. The Hardangervidda, a mountain plateau, rises to 6,153 feet (1,875 meters) in the Hardangerjøkel mountain.<br />Fishing, farming, and manufacturing (including chemicals and metal goods) are the chief occupations, but tourism is also an important source of income in this county. The city of Bergen is the capital of Hordaland.

GRUES<br />Clay County Family Album<br />Taylor Publishing Co. 1976<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Mr and Mrs Ernest C. Grue and daughters Regina, five, and Emma, three set out from St. Peter. Minnesota in 1877 to find a new home in the West. They drove two covered wagons and brought their four horses, a colt, two pigs, chickens, geese, plant bulbs, rhubarb and other roots to help them get started in a new location.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Some friends of theirs who traveled along with them staked out claims tor homesteads at Wild Rice River. But the Grues continued on until they came to a small lake on the west side of the trail. On a hill nearby was a good grove of oak trees Silver Lake was visible from the hill—about a mile west. They decided to make their home there, presently a game refuge.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Three miles to the north was a little town consisting of one store, a saloon and a large house called Hawley, in addition to a few other houses scattered about. The store was owned by a dark Norwegian, Christian Nelson</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Ernest Grue bought a yoke of oxen for breaking the land and heavy hauling. Then the real work began. Elina had to lead the oxen up and down the rows, walking many miles a day, while Ernest guided the crude hand plow. Sometimes flies and mosquitoes bothered the oxen and they jerked their heads so violently that the ropes Elina held blistered her hands And sometimes, when the plow hit an obstacle such as a rock, it did so with such force that Ernest would go sprawling. Evenings were busy times, also, for the log cabin had to be built.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Gradually the Grues became established on their new homestead. Two more daughters were born to them, first Mary, then Lena. Always there was much work: breaking land, milking cows, churning butter, making soap and lump sugar, and baking bread. Like most pioneer homesteads, there seemed to be no end to the tasks. Wood was burned for fuel in winter, so trees had to be cut down, hauled, sawed and split. Several times a month Elina would set out very early in the morning for the Smyser farm near Glyndon, riding in a lumber wagon. She would sell butter there, then drive home again-not getting there until the evening.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">One day when both the older Grue’s were away and the little girls were home alone, there was a loud knocking at the door. The girls knew that Indians were around, so terrified, they ran and hid in the inner room. When it was quiet they stole out and looking into the cold barrels of two big shotguns which had been thrust into the open window. In fear they ran to the door and opened it. There stood two sullen-looking Indians.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">“Bread!” they commanded. The girls took out several loaves of home baked bread to them and they went away. The next morning the Indians brought the Grues some ducks they had shot in return for the bread. Whenever they stopped to ask for bread of the Grues, the Indians would always leave ducks to repay them.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">The winters were cold, money was scarce and the ever present hard work served to draw the early settlers closer. They felt they had to help one another. When a pioneer woman was going to give birth to a child, for instance, another woman would go to her home to act as midwife. Eline Grue often served in that capacity, also.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">By 1882, the Grues had proved up their claim and Ernest built the Northwestern Hotel in Hawley in the general area of the present depot, and the family moved into town. This was soon a very busy place, also, as there were always strangers going through or working around Hawley, needing a place to board and room.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">The Northwestern Hotel was the meeting place place for different groups in the village; the first meeting of the Hawley Lutheran Ladies Aid was held there.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">In 1897 Eline Grue bought an organ from Dyer Brothers of St. Paul that had the unique distinction of having a bell attachment. This stood in the dining room and was considered something very special in those days. Many parties were held in the dining room, with young people from all around Hawley attending, joining in games, dancing, and their music.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">The Grue girls had to work very hard on account of all the tasks that needed doing at the hotel. There was always cleaning to be done, many lamps to fill with kerosene, lamp chimneys to clean-besides helping serve meals in the dining room.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">One morning Emma Grue was scrubbing the dining room floor. Charles W. Sill (also known as Wesley, he was the oldest son of Peter P. Sill) came in and found her on her hands and knees, hair falling over her eyes, face flushed and bare-foot. He introduced himself, telling her he farmed south of Hawley. “There is no country school teacher out in my district,” he said. “Would you come out there and teach”</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Emma was just 16 and inexperienced, but he had heard that she was a good student in school. She accepted this induction into the teaching profession. She taught several years and then married Charles Lisland, moving to Moland Township and then later to Sebeka.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">When the Northern Pacific railroad tracks were rerouted through Hawley, the Grues had to move their hotel to its present site, two blocks west of the depot, in order to make room for it.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Regina Grue married Andrew Dahl of Eglon Township. They lived in Hawley several years, then moved to Bellingham, Wash.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Mary and Lena Grue had a double wedding in the Hawley Congregational church in 1895. Mary married James Jammes and Lena married Axel W. Peterson. Mary’s bridesmaid was Maggie O’Donnell, Hawley’s first white child. Lena’s bridesmaid was Mabel Brown. Axel’s best man was his brother, Magnus F. Peterson, and James Jammes’ best man was Nicholai Nelson.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Eline Grue continued to operate the hotel after her husband died but when she retired, it was sold to Charles W. Sill.</span><br /><br /><br />IGI Individual Record FamilySearch™ International Genealogical Index v5.0<br />Norway<br />ELINE OLSDR<br />Female<br />Event(s):<br />Birth:<br />Christening:<br />Death:<br />Burial:<br />Parents:<br />Father: OLE HANSEN<br />Marriages:<br />Spouse: RIKKART SIMENSEN<br />Marriage: 16 JAN 1868 Loten, Hedmark, Norway<br />Messages:<br />Extracted marriage record for locality listed in the record.

(The border between Hedmark and Sweden is 352 kilometers - 219 miles - long). To the north of Hedmark is Sor Trondelag fylke, to the west is Oppland fylke, and to the south is Akershus fylke.<br />Norway's longest river, Glomma, which is 601 kilometers long - 373 miles - flows through Hedmark from north to south. A second water feature in this fylke is Lake Mjosa, which lies between Hedmark fylke and Oppland fylke. This is Norway's largest lake - 365 square kilometers in area (140 square miles) and 449 meters (1,473 feet) deep.<br />Hedmark is Norway's 3rd largest fylke, and agriculture in various forms are central to its economy. Timber is one of its most important economic resources - 47% of the land area of Hedmark is made up of forests that are actively harvested. Hedmark is also Norway's largest grain producer, growing 22.1% of Norway's total grain crop (wheat, barley, and oats). In addition, it is Norway's largest producer of potatoes.<br /></span><span style=";font-family:times new roman;font-size:78%;" ><span style="font-style: italic;">http://homepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com</span></span><br /><span style=";font-family:times new roman;font-size:85%;" ><br /></span><span style=";font-family:times new roman;font-size:85%;" >Birth: 3 Jun 1845, Loiten Hedmark Norway</span><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /></span><span style=";font-family:times new roman;font-size:85%;" >Christen: 24 Aug 1845, Loiten, Hedmark, Norway</span><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /></span><span style=";font-family:times new roman;font-size:85%;" >Death: 13 Dec 1932, Hawley, Clay County, Minnesota</span><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /></span><span style=";font-family:times new roman;font-size:85%;" >Burial: 1932, Hegland Church Eglon Township Hawley Minnesota</span><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /></span><span style=";font-family:times new roman;font-size:85%;" >Immigration: Sep 1870, Waco Texas</span><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /></span><span style=";font-family:times new roman;font-size:85%;" >Father: Ole Hansen Mattisrud (1819-)</span><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /></span><span style=";font-family:times new roman;font-size:85%;" >Mother: Olia Engebretsdatter Skougen Prestegardseie (1820-1910)<br /></span><span style=";font-family:times new roman;font-size:85%;" >Marriage: 25 Jul 1880, Solem Church Hawley, Clay County, Minnesota</span><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /><br /></span><span style=";font-family:times new roman;font-size:85%;" >Children:<br />Christian (1881-)</span><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /></span><span style=";font-family:times new roman;font-size:85%;" >Ole Andrias (1884-1943)</span><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /></span><span style=";font-family:times new roman;font-size:85%;" >Ida Olava (1883-1967)</span><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /></span><span style=";font-family:times new roman;font-size:85%;" >Ollie (1887-1979)</span><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /></span><span style=";font-family:times new roman;font-size:85%;" >Joren (1889-1892)<br /><br /></span><span style=";font-family:times new roman;font-size:85%;" >(2) 1.3 Anders Olsen Mattisrud<br />--------------------------------------------------<br />Birth: 9 Jan 1848, Loiten Hedmark Norway<br /><br />Lived here in 1900 Census of Norway:<br />* Census year: 1900<br />* Municipality: Loten<br />* Municipality number: 0415<br />* Name of domicile: Bakstad<br /><br />Living here in 1865 Census of Norway:<br />* Census year: 1865<br />* Municipality: Vang<br />* Municipality number: 0414<br />* Name of domicile: Arnseth ostre med Gransodegaard<br /><br />Spouse: Sidsel Jensdatter<br />Birth: 1834, Loiten Hedmark Norway<br />Death: 1909, Loiten Hedmark Norway<br />Marriage: 26 May 1876, Loiten Hedmark Norway<br /></span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /></span><span style=";font-family:times new roman;font-size:85%;" >(2) 1.1 Christian Knutson</span><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /></span><span style=";font-family:times new roman;font-size:85%;" >--------------------------------------------------</span><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /><br /></span><div style="text-align: center;font-family:times new roman;"><span style="font-size:85%;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrikekxrV2pQnhldfoe4zGH6Dhr1vqqv8B6HpLSV7QlbvYq48U7DkhBjoD3Z-RReFaOR6CHtD2JPklOLmVmYledk2AogrCnE8QbQcpHt-cSZX7hNv7My6DxT6FUegCx0FaFomYJGsaFhRI/s1600-h/christ+copy.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px;

Knutson is a farmer in Eglon township, Clay County, with a varied and interesting history, and is a living demonstration of the fact that no difficulties and hindrances are enough to defeat a man determined to rise to dignity and independence in the great northwest if he is only willing to be industrious, honest and persistent. Mr. Knutson was born in Walders, Norway, in 1853 or 1851, and was left fatherless when a young child, and when he was about six or seven years old the family came to the United States settling on a farm in Houston County, Minnesota. There he was reared and given such education as the public schools of the day afforded. When he was about nineteen years old he struck out in the world for himself, and in 1871 came to Eglon township, Clay county, where he was employed by the farmers of that community for a number of years. At the time of his arrival in Clay county he visited Moorhead, which then gave little promise of its future importance, as it consisted of a few tents and shanties. In 1872, and again in the summer of 1873, Mr. Knutson took service as a boat hand on the Red River, and made many trips to Winnipeg. Later he was employed on the famous Dalrymple farm, and in the course of the next few years travelled all over the northern part of the state and largely over North Dakota. When the Northern Pacific and the Great Northern Railroads were put through Clay County he was engaged in the work. Mr. Knutson was married in 1880 to Martina Olson. She was born in Norway, and came to the United States in 1871. She lived two and a half years in Texas, and lived in North Dakota before coming into Minnesota in 1876. They have four children: Christ, who was born in 1881; Ida O., born in 1883; Ole A., in 1884; and Ollie, in 1887. All were born in Eglon Township, where the wife had previously taken a homestead farm and in 1880 engaged in its development. He also bought railroad land and began farming with a fine tract of land at his command. Beginning with very little, he farmed with oxen some six or seven years. His first crop of wheat was one hundred and fifty-five bushels from eight acres. While Mr. Knutson has no very phenomenal crops to report, he has kept steadily at work, and he and his wife now own a fine farm of two hundred and sixty acres, with about one hundred and sixty under cultivation. In his political views he affiliates with the Populist party, and has been assessor of the town many years, and school clerk some fourteen years.

She was a member of the Modern Study Club and the American Legion Auxiliary, serving as president and secretary over the years.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Verna was often the hostess for extended family gatherings. She enjoyed making meals for her family, and was especially renowned for her impossibly thin lefse, flavorful roasted meats and gravies, and hearty baked beans. She loved to participate in American Legion bingo, playing cards, and traveling. In her younger years, she liked to go camping and bowling. She loved spending time with her family and treasured the time she spent with her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">While she was a young mother, Verna was an apt seamstress, sewing holiday and special occasion garments for her children. In later life, she sewed welcome flannel blankets for her grandchildren. She and Arnt were often right-on-the-spot with the birth of a new grandchild, eager to help with the cooking and laundry, so mom and dad could focus on the new baby.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Verna was a devoted caregiver for her husband, Arnt, for several years after he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease, and before he moved to the Twin Valley Living Center. After 50 years of marriage, Arnt died on Nov. 4, 1999. Verna continued to live at home until moving into the Twin Valley Living Center in 2003, where she enjoyed wonderful care from staff and volunteers until the time of her death.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Surviving Verna are two sons, Joel (Lynelle) Nysetvold of Twin Valley and Paul (Janet) Nysetvold of Fargo; three daughters, Margit (Lyle) Bakke of Flom, Minn., Maren (James) McGowan of St. Paul and Marcia (William) Garberg of Hutchinson, Minn.; 14 grandchildren, nine great grandchildren; as well as several nieces and nephews.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Preceding Verna in death were her parents, Ole and Margaret; husband, Arnt; two sons, David and Brian; four brothers, Orville, Niles, Harold and Kermit; and three sisters; Helene, Harriet and Mildred.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Funeral services were held Friday, May 8 at Zion Lutheran Church in Twin Valley, with the Rev. Charles Bade officiating. Pallbearers were her grandsons: Mark Nysetvold, Kilty McGowan, John Nysetvold, Zachary Garberg, Erik Bakke and Matthew Nysetvold. Honorary pallbearers were her granddaughters, Sonja Roy, Caitlin McGowan, Sarah Kjono, Ashley Garberg, Jessica Garberg, Gretchen Garberg, Mara Nysetvold and Kya Nysetvold.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Burial took place in Zion Lutheran Cemetery, Twin Valley.

Handrup Obituary</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">When Sara R. Handrup lived in Montauk, she was known as the person who cut 90 percent of the community’s hair and made cakes for people’s birthdays, her daughter Dale Bolton said.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;"> Ms. Handrup, who grew up in Montauk and raised a family there, died on May 31 at Treasure Coast Hospice in Stuart, Fla. She was 86 and had fallen two weeks earlier at a nursing home in North Palm Beach, Fla.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;"> An East Hampton High School graduate of 1940, she married Einar Handrup a year later. Her husband, who died before her, worked as a charter boat captain. Ms. Handrup worked in real estate and later in banking.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;"> She moved from Montauk to North Palm Beach 37 years ago. In the years since, she would occasionally return to the South Fork in the summer, sometimes to see a granddaughter, Tracy Grossman, who lives in East Hampton.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;"> Ms. Handrup was born in New London, Conn., on March 21, 1922, to Siguard Syvertsen and the former Bertha Traver.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;"> In addition to Ms. Bolton, who lives in Hobe Sound, Fla., she is survived by two other children, Einar C. Handrup of North Palm Beach and Janis Gadarian of Palm Beach Gardens, Fla. Three grandchildren and three great-grandchildren also survive. A brother, Robert Syvertsen, predeceased her.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;"> Ms. Handrup requested that her ashes be scattered over Culloden Point in Montauk, the same place where her husband’s ashes were scattered, so that she could “meet Dad out by the buoy,” Ms. Bolton said.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;"> Services will be private. Memorial contributions can be made to Treasure Coast Hospice, 1201 Southeast Indian Street, Stuart, Fla. 34997.</span><br /><br />Robert A.

He leaves to mourn his passing, two daughters, Kristin (Jim), Karen (Danny), his two sons, Tron and Olaf (Cheryl), his only sister, Tordis (Harry), his niece Joanne and ten grandchildren, Clint, Laurie, William, Julie, Josh, Coleby, Dayna, Kyle, Trevor and Taryn. Olaf is predeceased by his loving wife, Grethi and his grandson, Tyler. Olaf was born in Hommelvik, Malvik Sor Trondelag, Norway and moved to Canada at the age of four. Olaf graduated from UBC in 1954 as an MD. After graduation, Olaf interned at Vancouver General Hospital before starting his practise. He spent his life taking care of people as a general physician in Vancouver, New Denver and Nakusp. Upon retirement, he continued helping people by pursuing his passion for history and genealogy. He became a translator for what was known as the "Trondelag list". One of his last big achievements was the translation of Normaendene i Amerika, volume 1 by Martin Ulvestad 1907. The family wishes to thank all our friends and family for all their support during this time. Olaf was a lover of dogs, especially German Shepherds. In lieu of flowers, donations in his memory may be sent to the SPCA. A special thanks to Wayne Johnson and Margit Bakke for being such good friends to Dad over the years.

This inland fylke contains large mountain regions - substantial portions of the Jotunheimen, Rondane and Dovrefjell mountain regions lie in Oppland fylke. In fact, 80% of the county lies 600 meters - 1,968 feet - or more above sea level. There are more than 200 mountains in Oppland that are more than 2,000 meters - 6,562 feet - high, including two of Northern Europe's tallest mountains Galdhøpiggen (2,469 meters - 8,100 feet) and Glitretind (2,451 meters - 8,041 feet).<br />There are two major valleys in Oppland: Gudbrandsdalen and Valdres, and farming there is focused primarily on raising cattle and sheep. The southern part of the fylke, on the other hand, is more flat, with larger farms that focus on growing crops.<br />In the southern part of the fylke, along the shore of Lake Mjøsa, lie the two cities of Lillehammer and Gjøvik. The former became known all over the world in 1992 when the winter olympics were held in Lillehammer.<br />Until 1756, Oppland was part of Akershus amt (the old word for fylke). In 1757, the area that is today Oppland fylke and Hedmark fylke was separated out and became Opplandenes amt. 24 years later, in 1781, this amt was divided in two, creating Kristians amt and Hedemarken amt. On 01 January 1918 Kristians amt was renamed Oppland fylke and Hedemarken amt was renamed Hedmark fylke.<br /><span style="font-size:78%;"><span style="font-style: italic;">http://homepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com</span></span></span></div></center><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;

Gilbert married in Norway and came to America in 1862 with his wife Sidsel Helgesdatter who he married in 1859 in Nord Aurdal, Oppland, Norway.. She died in 1869 and left him with small children to take care of. Therefore his sister Ingeborg moved into his house and helped him take care of the small children. He remarried in 1872 to Elea Kittlesdatter and had more children with her. Someday I would like to find out what happened to all of the children. Every year I go on a Thelma & Louise trip with my good friend Kris from California. In 2006, we were in Houston County and took some pictures of the Looney Valley, which is a very beautiful place. There are no buildings left that I could find, after all, Carl Johan left Houston County about 1870.<br /><br /></span></span><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsJDsawzm3ebJhYZrJFD7DGdTc428amhwOwRl2baYkc2vfrQjTQLr541oRS2mWEPYEZJtEOPf3qypbuuHv_Ywz_WLUoaL6mwyUb-Qb92LjnGvZ4VNss5XOBDKQnaUo-y4l-fA1MNDzAB2w/s1600-h/STA70444.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsJDsawzm3ebJhYZrJFD7DGdTc428amhwOwRl2baYkc2vfrQjTQLr541oRS2mWEPYEZJtEOPf3qypbuuHv_Ywz_WLUoaL6mwyUb-Qb92LjnGvZ4VNss5XOBDKQnaUo-y4l-fA1MNDzAB2w/s400/STA70444.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5211809029889282050" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="font-size:78%;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><br /></span></span></div><span style="font-family:times new roman;">LOONEYVILLE, a village in Looney valley along the Root River, first settled by John S. Looney, born in Nashville, Tenn.; he lived in Illinois and Wisconsin before coming in 1852, returning to Illinois in 1858. Looney with Elihu Hunt and Daniel Wilson had 40 acres surveyed for a townsite; Corydon Looney opened a store on his father's land in 1855 and moved to the West Coast about 1858, selling the store to Wilson, then postmaster, who moved the post office from his home to the store; the post office operated, 1855-70. James Looney, another son of John, platted 360 acres in sections 27 and 34 in 1857 as St. Lawrence, on the north side of the Root River, in hopes that the railroad would be located there; however, the railroad laid track south of the river, and the town died before it could be developed.</span><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">It is where they were located in the 1860 census. After her husband died, she moved to town and her step son Andrew took over the farm until he killed himself. Her son Christian took over the farm until he moved with his family to Washington State. Her other son Martin, with Ole Hanson was killed while visiting his brother Carl Johan at Hawley, Minnesota. He opened a window during a thunderstorm and was struck by lightning.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:times new roman;" >(Glyndon) Red River Valley News</span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:times new roman;" >Friday, August 12, 1886</span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:times new roman;" >Page 8</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">The most severe storm of thunder and lightning which we have ever witnessed passed over here on Monday last. For several days prior to the storm the heat was intense, especially on Sunday. During Monday afternoon heavy clouds appeared in the west and north, and shortly after four o’clock they divided, part going east and part south, seemingly following the courses of the Wild Rice and Buggalo rivers, and we thought we should not get very much of the storm here; but shortly after five o’clock the wind suddenly changed to southeast. When both parts of the storm came together, and the thunder and lightning in the vicinity of Hawley was most terrific. The lightning killed one man in Eglon by the name of Martin Hansen. He was in the act of opening a window to let some air in the room, when the lightning came through the room and struck him. Death was instantaneous, as parties who were in the room state that he never moved afterwards. One other man in the room was shocked pretty badly, but not hurt. The house was not damaged. Hansen was a married man about twenty-five years old, and leaves a wife and one child.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">OLE HANSON</span><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">Male</span><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">Event(s):</span><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">Birth:</span><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">Christening:</span><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">Death:</span><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">Burial:</span><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">Marriages:</span><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">Spouse: ISABEL GILBERTSON</span><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">Marriage: 23 JUL 1859 , Houston, Minnesota</span><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">Messages:</span><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">Extracted marriage record for locality listed in the record.

As the freight from the east into the yards at this place, the lower crossing was immediately cleared for passage. Mrs. Hanson, a lady seventy-four years of age, had been in the village buying some little necessaries and had started for her home, across the track. As she camee up to this crossing she saw the cars were slowly backing down but thinking she had ample time to get across before the crossing was closed, started. She had almost, but not quite, accomplished her design, when the corner of the car, struck her shoulder, staggering her, at the same time heer ddress was caught and twisted in such a manner that she could not free herself and she was slowly drawn under the cruel wheels. One of her limbs was severed and the other one crushed and mangled in a horrible manner. To make this awful thing worse, not a physician could be found, both being in the country, and in this condition she laid until a physician could be summoned which was done as expeditiously as possible. She lived until about ten o' clock that night and then her spirit took its flight. Mrs. H. was one of the oldest settlers in this valley having settled in this vicinity during the latter part of the fifties, coming here direct from Norway. One son, Chris, resides in this village. She was buried Monday fron the Presbyterian church, Rev.

At the top of the scanned image page is the option labeled Bildeinformasjon: (Norwegian version)/Image Information (English version( which is set to Ingen (Norwegian version) and means None in English. There are 3 choices and of the three choices I like Øverst (Norwegian version) which means On Top in English because it puts the information across the top of the page and is easier to see.<br />The first line Kildeinformasjon: (Norwegian version)/Source information (English version) is a really nice summary of the source of the information and is wonderful to have for making detailed source citations, footnotes, etc.<br />The second line Permanent sidelenke: (Norwegian version)/Permanent pagelink (English version) is the best line to capture if you want to save the exact URL location or share the actual scanned image and the source information. It allows the full capabilities for zooming in and out to best view the image and informs the recipient of the exact location, book and other details to be able to find the place you found the information.<br />The third line Permanent bildelenke: (Norwegian version)/Permanent imagelink (English version) is the one to use to print a copy of the image or to save a copy of the image in jpg format. This line will not capture the source information and therefore is not the line to copy to share online when requesting help or assistance in translating the image found.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Information and Search on Cemeteries in Norway</span> (Choose English)<br />http://www.disnorge.no/gravminner/index.php<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Instructions for searching the Emigrants from Trondheim database</span> (Norwegian version):<br />(Example: You are searching for Petra Stavset who left Norway in 1882)<br /><br />First, Go here: (Norwegian Version)<br />http://digitalarkivet.uib.no/cgi-win/webcens.exe?slag=visbase&filnamn=EMITROND&spraak=n&metanr=1396<br /><br />1.

Next go to the next pull down box to the right of it and hold your mouse on it and click, let go at Inneheld (Contains).<br />4. Then click on Søk (Search). A new page will come up and it will tell you that 6,689 people left in 1882.<br />5. A new search box shows up below your original search box, type in Petr in the blank box.<br />6.

You will get a new page with all the first names that start with Petr.<br />8. A new search box shows up under your other two search boxes, type in St in the blank, where it says Posttype (Rec. class.) click on it and choose etternamn (last name) and in the next box, click on it and choose børjar på (starts with) (you never know what name they used or how they spelled it in the records, so less is better).<br />9. Then click on Søk (Search). You will get a new page!<br />10. On it you will find three names, Stavset, Strinden and Størset. Click on the blue number to the left side of Petra.

He bought Søndre Brohaug (Southern Brohaug) in 1831 for 400 daler.<br />Brohaug Farm in the 1865 Census of Norway The official records show that he bought the farm from his uncle, Peder Bentsen, who then moved to Rønsen for better pasture and hay fields. Other records, however, show that Ole’s father, Christopher Bentsen, also lived on the farm, and had obtained free maintenance for himself and his wife in exchange for the deed to the property. Possibly both his father and his uncle had previously farmed Southern Brohaug.<br />Ole had married Berthe Olea (Oline?) Jensdatter in 1830. Berthe died in March of 1836, only 25 years old, leaving one daughter Marthe Christine.<br /><br />After the death of his first wife, Ole married Karen Andersdatter Langseth in 1838. Although we have generally not delved into the genealogy of the wives, the following information was found about Karen’s family:<br /><br />*Karen’s grandfather was:<br />Henrik Andersen, born 1749. He married Berte Taraldsdatter and had a farm at Langsettun from 1790-1807.<br />Their son, Anders Henriksen, born 1785 (died 1849), he married Olea Olsdatter and had the farm at Langsettun from 1807-1849. Their children were:<br />Ole, Hans, Berthe Marie, Anne Dorthea, Karen and Ingeborg Marie.<br /><br />Karen and Ole had eight children, but one, Gustava,died at about three years of age.<br />Karen herself died in Norway in 1861.<br /><br />In addition to farming, Ole apparently engaged in logging some of the forested area of the farm. Once a violent storm came up while his logs were being floated down the river (Vorma?) to a mill. Rafts were broken apart and logs scattered. Since the value of the timber would have been almost one thousand dollars (U.S.), it was a tragic loss for the family. One of Ole’s sons said later it was the only time he saw his father cry. In 1869, Ole Christophersen Brohaugh and the seven children from his second marriage emigrated to America. Rumors have persisted that he left to avoid local pressures to get married again, but these were probably jocular. The more likely reasons would have been economic, as discussed in Chapter 1. They left Norway in April, 1869 and arrived in New York City in May, on board the ship "Alepo".<br />The passenger list for this ship shows the following arriving passengers. Ole Borhaug age 59 and his occupation was a Laborer from Germany.<br />Christophin Borhaug age 27 and his occupation was a Laborer from Germany.<br />Berd Borhaug age 25 and his occupation was a Laborer from Germany.<br />Olava Borhaug age 29 and she was a spinster from Germany.<br />Olina Borhaug age 22 and she was a spinster from Germany.<br />Ole Borhaug age 14 and his occupation was a Laborer from Germany.<br />Gustav Borhaug age 11 and he was listed as a child.<br />Marthia Borhaug age 10 and she was listed as a child from Germany.<br />Hans Borhaug age 38 and his occupation was listed as a Laborer from Germany. Note the typical misinformation in public records, notably the atrocious misspellings and the wrong country of origin. From New York they traveled on to Red Wing, Minnesota, the last stage of the journey being made by river steamboat. The youngest son, Gustave, kept a brief record of the trip in a little notebook (which we still have) given to him before he left Norway. A translation of the trip commentary from this notebook follows: (Translation by George Olaf Brohaugh)<br />I left Christiania (now Oslo) the 23rd of April. Had good weather over the North Sea and Arrived at Hull in England the 26th at 2 o'clock in the afternoon and then left by train at 10 o'clock in the evening. The train travelled fast and we came to Liverpool at 6 o'clock April 27th where we quartered in a hotel. And now we had time to see the city: its parks, musuem, its cemetery and D.O.L. (????) Tuesday, May 4th at 4 o'clock in the afternoon we left Liverpool on the ship Alepo and had good weather all the time over the ocean. On the 25th we took on board the harbor pilot and on the 16th we saw land. On the 17th at 11 o'clock in the forenoon we landed in New York. Travelled fast and came to Pittsburgh where we changed cars and lay there several hours. Travelled again on the train and came to Chicago the 21st at 7 o'clock in the forenoon. We lay there until the 24th. Left there and came to Red Wing, Minnesota on the 25th of May 1869. The family lived in Red Wing for about a year. Then Ole purchased an 80 acre farm near the village of Esdaile, in Pierce County, Wisconsin, just across the river from Red Wing. This farm, the S 1/2 of the SE 1/4 of Section 16, is labeled B.O. Brohaugh in the 1877 plat map shown in Fig. 3.2. As part of an 1846 Act of the U.S. Congress approving Wisconsin as a state within the Union, sections numbered "16" in every township were granted to the state for use of schools. This particular section number 16 was sold to a William N. Fairbanks in 1865. He in turn sold the S 1/2 of the SE 1/4 to Ole C. Brohaugh on September 9, 1870 for $800. Thus Ole was only the second private owner of the land, and almost certainly the first one to farm it. Apparently no cash changed hands during this sale, as a mortgage for $800 was also recorded on September 9, 1870 from Ole C. to William Fairbanks. Ole Christophersen and his family became charter members of the Eidsvold Lutheran Church in Esdaile. The Congregational Member Inventory of 1873 showed them among the 95 members as: Ole Chr. Brohaugh<br />Chr. O. Brohaugh<br />Bernt O. Brohaugh<br />Ole O. Brohaugh<br />Gustave O.Brohaugh<br />Olava Olsdtr. Brohaugh<br />Oliana Brohaugh<br />Martine Brohaugh Ole lived only three years on his new farm: he died on December 16, 1873.

For instance, the Estate Inventory and Appraisal shows the extent of his possessions: Real Estate:<br />40 acres..........$850.00<br />40 acres..........$300.00 Personal Property<br />One Cow..........$ 20.00<br />One Cooking Stove..........$ 8.00<br />One Bedsted..........$ 2.00<br />One Featherbed..........$ 6.00<br />Two Chairs.......... 50¢ There were insufficient funds to pay Ole's debts (which included the mortgage) so the farm was put up for sale. At a public auction, held December 14, 1874, one of Ole's sons, Bernt, was the highest bidder and purchased the property for $1,150.00, that amount to be paid in two years. In a complicated financial arrangement, the mortgage was paid off by the eldest son, Christopher and two new mortgages, payable to Christopher and another son, Ole O., were issued by Bernt.<br />Naturalization Record of Bernt: Brohaugh, Bernt O; 15 Dec 1885; Pierce County WI The two minor children, Gustave and Martina, were awarded $300.00 each as a part of the settlement at the same time that the court appointed a guardian (Petter Johnson) for them. The two older daughters, Olava and Oliana, apparently received nothing from the estate.<br /><br />Marthe Christine Olsdatter Brohaugh<br />1830-1901<br />Martha Christine was the daughter of Ole and his first wife Berthe. Since she was only 5 years old when her mother died, she was brought up with Ole's second family. Christine married Lars Aasgaard and emigrated to America at about the same time as her father (1869) although she did not travel with him. Marthe's Family,Leaving Norway The Aasgaards settled near Osseo, Wisconsin.<br />Their son Martinus, married Anna Maria Larsen in Wisconsin who was also from Eidsvold and went to Home Lake Township in Norman County, Minnesota and homesteaded. Martinus died in 1904 when a barn door fell on him. [Photo]<br />Martinus Larsen AasgaardAt the turn of the century Martinus Larsen Aasgaard was one of the best known and most progressive farmers and stockmen of Home Lake Township in Norman County of Minnesota. He was born in Norway in 1858 and came to the United States in 1869 settled in Arena in Dane County, Wisconsin, where he worked for fifteen years. The name Aasgaard means "farm by the creek" in Norway and is located north of Oslo near Lake Mjosa, the largest lake in Norway.<br />(Note: The Aasgaard Farm that they came from was in Stange, Hedmark, not in Eidsvold, Akershus)<br />He was married in Wisconsin and in April of 1885 they moved to Minnesota. All their worldly possessions were represented by fifty dollars in cash. His brother Ole, had come to Norman County before him and was teaching school in Home Lake Township, School District No. 44. He was rooming at the John Homelvig farm to which Martinus and his bride came with a rented team of horses and wagon. He returned the team to Ada, making the trip back on foot: twenty six miles largely covered by swamps and water. In the spring of 1886 Martinus Aasgaard homestead one hundred and sixty acres of land in Section 26, Home Lake Township; and in 1898 he bought forty adjoining acres to increase his holding. He carried out an extensive series of improvements, including new buildings, the erection of fences and the setting out of groves. One well known feature of the farm was a well built round barn.<br />In those days farmers had no cream separators so they took their milk to a creamery to be separated--sold the cream and took the skim milk back home with them. In 1891 a creamery was established in Home Lake Township. It was located north of what was known as Home Lake--the only lake in Norman County. Martinus Aasgaard and Anton Lerud helped organize this creamery and were stockholders. A few years later this creamery was sold to the Twin Valley Creamery Association and they moved the building to a site north of Twin Valley where it was operated for many years.<br />Mr. Aasgaard helped organize School District No. 16 in 1886--to serve the children living farther south in the township. A new building was put up for $55--the lumber cost $278.18 and M. Aasgaard painted it for $5. The first teacher was Ole Aasgaard who received $105 for a three month term. The school year was divided into two terms: the first starting about March 10 and running to the first part of June--and the second from November first to the middle of January. Spelling, reading, writing, arithmetic, geography, grammar, and history were taught. Ole clerked in a general store in Twin Valley when he was not teaching and children loved to have him wait on them because he gave such generous helpings of candy for their pennies.<br />Martinus was the first clerk of the school board of District No. 16 and held that position for several years. He was a life long member of Wild Rice Synod Church and served the congregation as trustee for several years. He died in 1904 at the early age of forty six years.<br />In 1884 Martinus Aasgaard was united in marriage to Anna Maria Larson, a native of Norway, coming from the Sorlie farm near Eidsvold in Eastern Norway. She was born in 1863. She came to America with her parents at the age of three years. The voyage across the Atlantic Ocean took thirteen weeks.<br />The first year in Home Lake Township was one of harships; credit was difficult to obtain and money was still more difficult to secure.<br />Lawrence, the oldest of their nine children, was born at this time (1885). He grew up to the life of a farmer and in 1909 bought a farm of his own in Home Lake Township and married Hannah Albertson. Both are now deceased. They had six children.<br />Inez, the second child of Martinus and Maria, was born in 1887. She was married to Warner Johnson and they had five children. They also farrmed in Home Lake Township and are now deceased.<br />Mina was born in 1891 and was married to Ole Nysetvold, a contractor and builder, and they lived in Twin Valley. They are now deceased. To their union eleven children were born.<br />Oliver was born in 1893 and he stayed at home and helped his mother farm until he died in 1922.<br />Almer was born in 1895. He was drafted to serve in the first World War and gave his life for his country in France on September 15, 1918 and is buried at Plot D Row 07 Grave 11, Oise-Aisne American Cemetery, Fere-en-Tardenois, France. He was a private in the USA Army, 305th Field Artillery Regiment, 77th Infantry Division.<br />Julia was born in 1897. She married Sidney Aamoth and they had two children. He died and later she married John M. Bentley and they had two daughters. Julia died and John has died also.<br />Clarence was born in 1900 and was killed in an accident in 1928.<br />Two sons died in infancy.<br />The Aasgaard's were esteemed people in the community and were interested in the welfare of their family and were sympathetic to the needs of their neighbor's. Often, in the abscence of a doctor, an undertaker, or a pastor, Martinus acted in those capacities, doing the best he knew how to show concern for his fellow man.<br /><br />Anna Olava Olsdatter Brohaugh<br />1839-1905<br />When Olava's mother died in Norway, the youngest child in the family was only three years old. Olava therefore gave up plans for marriage to assume the responsibility of caring for the family. She continued to do this after they came to America. Later she lived in Chicago and then moved to Minneapolis. The Minneapolis City Directories list her as being a laundress in the early 1890's. They also list her as being a nurse, but since she had no nurses's training, we have assumed "nurse" was a misunderstanding of a heavily accented pronunciation of "laundress".<br />Olava moved to the home of her brother, Rev. Christopher, for the last few months of her life, and died in St. Paul in 1905. She is buried in Oakland Cemetery, St. Paul, Minnesota. [Photo]<br /><br />Christopher Olsen Brohaugh<br />1841-1908<br />Christopher Olson Brohaugh was Ole's eldest son. He apparently stayed in Red Wing, Minnesota for a while after the family moved to Pierce County in Wisconsin, for he was the only Brohaugh recorded in either the Minnesota or the Wisconsin 1870 Federal Census.<br />Christopher was ordained a Lutheran pastor October 9, 1873 in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Since he was 28 years old when he came to the United States, he may have had some theological training in Norway.<br />He started his pastoral career as a member of the Ellings Synod, a synod organized by Elling Eielsen in 1846. Eielsen was a Norwegian lay preacher who came to America in 1839, became very active in the Fox River Norwegian settlement in Illinois and later was officially ordained by a German pastor.<br />The Ellings Synod changed its name to the Hauges Synod in 1876, remained independent until the large Lutheran merger f 1917, and then became part of the Norwegian Lutheran Church of America.<br />Thus for most of his career, Christopher was a Hauges Lutheran. He served pastorates at the following locations:<br />1873-1876, Red Wing, Minnesota and Esdaile, Wisconsin<br />1876-1880, Minneapolis<br />1880-1893, Chicago, Illinois<br />1893-1906, St. Paul, Minnesota<br />He was a prolific writer, hymn writer and editor, and is even listed in the St. Paul, Minnesota Directories for 1907 and 1908 as an editor. Some of his editing responsibilities included:<br />1873-1898, Budbaereren<br />1885, Bornenes harpe<br />1887, Vaegteren<br />1903-1907, Budbaereren<br />1907-1908, Haugianeren<br />1907-1908, Bornevennen<br />The Norwegian paper "Budbaereren" was the official organ of the Hauges Lutheran Synod and "Bornevennen" was an illustrated Sunday school paper established by Rev. Brohaugh in 1877.<br />He was also the author of several books, including (as co-author) a popular biography of Elling Eielsen, and some music books. Some of his works are:<br />1883, Eilling Eielsens liv og virke<br />1887, Vaegterrosten<br />1887, Missionaer Chr. Borchgrevink<br />1898, Harpelegeren med guitarskole<br />1900, Harpelegeren<br />Christopher married Julia Nelson in 1877, and they raised four children who all graduated from the University of Minnesota.<br />Their children are:<br />Mary, the oldest, was a teacher and never married, and died when she was only twenty-eight years old.<br />Peter Adolph, who worked for the federal government in Washington, D.C. and married Amy Owen, but did not have any children.<br />Oscar, who obtained a legal degree from the Atlanta Law School and became chief of the commerce department for the Southern Freight Association. He married Mabel Wilkes, but they had no children either.<br />Gustave, who worked as a civil engineer for the Minnesota Highway Department until his retirement and then established his own engineering consulting firm. He married Eulalie Bern (Lally), and they did have several children.<br /><br />Bernt Olsen Brohaugh<br />1843-1904<br />Bernt Olson Brohaugh bought the family farm in Pierce County in December of 1874. In 1879, he must have been strapped for cash, as he sold half of it (40 acres) to Andrew O. Lund for $400.00. The deed contained the following stipulation:<br />Andrew Lund is to have right of way across Brohaugh land from ...to said Brohaugh's grainary. Brohaugh reserves the right to cut and take away all timber except for what Lund will need for fencing and building a house. It is agreed that all of said timber except 5 acres is to be taken off before 1882 and the last five acres in 1882.<br />The deal apparently fell through, as Bernt bought back the 40 acres later the same year.<br />Later on, in 1893, he bought the adjacent 40 acres in Section 15 and an additional 40 acres in Section 17.<br />Bernt married Julia Paulson in 1875, and they raised seven children on the farm. It was interesting to find that they preferred not to use (or perhaps to spell) the Brohaugh name for the 1880 Federal Census taker. The census lists them as:<br />Olson, Bernt age 36 and a farmer<br />Olson, Julia age 28 and his wife<br />Olson, Clara M. age 4<br />Olson, Ole A. age 2<br />Olson, George P. 1/12<br />Bernt died on his farm, July 23, 1904.<br /><br />Oliana Olsdatter Brohaugh<br />1846-1932<br />Esdaile church records show that Oliana married Olaus J. Dorr on December 14, 1873, just two days before her father, Ole C., died. They lived on a farm near Esdaile for many years.<br />Oliana and O.J. raised five children on their farm before they sold it and retired.<br />Their children were: Karen, who taught in Wisconsin and North Dakota rural schools. She married Gustave Simmons and they operated a drug store in Montana for a while. They had no children. Later she married Bjorlin Orbeck.<br />Joseph, who operated a hardware store in Norman County, Minnesota for a while and later ranched in Arizona. He never married. Oscar, who stayed on the farm.<br />Marie was a seamstress who married Frank Ulberth. They too had no children.<br />Emelia and Oscar remained on the farm, and when their parents retired, moved with them to St. Paul, Minnesota, securing employment in Minneapolis.<br />Then they bought a house on Keston St. in St. Paul, Minnesota, where several of their nieces and nephews used to visit them while attending the university nearby.<br /><br />Ole Olsen Brohaugh<br />1852-1932<br />Ole Olson Brohaugh apparently stayed at the family farm in Wisconsin for a while after his father's death, for he applied for U.S. citizenship in Pierce County on March 27, 1874 as Ole O. Brohaug. Shortly thereafter, he went to Red Wing, Minnesota to engage in business, and then moved to Minneapolis.<br />In Minneapolis, he and a partner established a meat market (Brohaugh and Sather, 1519 South 5th St.) which operated from 1876 to 1879. In 1880, the partnership was dissolved and Ole ran the market by himself for a short time.<br />While living in Minneapolis, he met and married Albertina Hansen, and their first children were born there. In 1881, he moved to Ada, Minnesota in Norman County in western Minnesota, just a few years after the village was started. In Ada, he also operated a meat market and in 1885 bought some lots within the city. Later he moved a short distance to Hendrum, Minnesota where he bought into a mercantile store and also became the village postmaster. Some of his children have said that he was too lenient with credit to the local farmers and did not do well financially as a store owner. Anyway about 1900 (the deed transfer is dated Nov. 1900) he traded the store for the A.H. Gordon farm near Shelly, Minnesota and farmed there for twenty years.<br />In 1920, the farm was rented, the machinery, animals, supplies, etc., were auctioned off, and Ole and his wife moved back to Ada for their retirement.<br />As mentioned before, Ole married Albertina Hansen, and their first children were born in Minneapolis. Albertina had come from Norway when she was fourteen years old. She had travelled alone, in care of the ship's captain, to join her mother in Madison, Wisconsin. Later she moved to Minneapolis where she was a milliner and met Ole. Ole and Albertina had ten children, nine of whom lived beyond early childhood. The children were encouraged to obtain advanced education, in spite of the lack of available funds. Education came first, before any of life's amenities.<br /><br />Gustave Olsen Brohaugh<br />1855-1928<br />Gustave was the scholar of the family. He attended a Normal School, as teacher's colleges were called then, at River Falls, Wisconsin to earn a teacher's certificate, and then began his long teaching career. He continued his formal education until he had earned four degrees. A tabulation of his career highlights include:<br />December 1878, Normal School Certificate, River Falls, Wisconsin<br />1879-1928, Professor at Red Wing Seminary (except for 1893-1895)<br />June 1889, BA Literature, University of Minnesota<br />June 1893, LLB, University of Minnesota<br />1893-1895, Sup. of Schools, Red Wing, Minnesota<br />June 1895, Admitted to the Bar, Dakota Territory<br />June 1895, Admitted to the Bar, State of Minnesota<br />October 1906, MA, University of Wisconsin, Political Economy and History<br />June 1909, Ph.D, University of Minnesota, (Thesis: The Minnesota Pine Lands)<br />The Red Wing Seminary played an important part in Gustave's life. The Seminary opened in September, 1879 with Rev. I. Eistenson as principal and Prof. G.O. Brohaugh as his assistant. The purpose of the school was to furnish a general Christian culture and more particularly to prepare ministers for the Hauge Synod. In addition to the theological department, the Seminary had a "preparatory" department in which Gustave taught. He taught English language and literature, mathematics, political science, history and penmanship! He spoke four languages fluently: Norwegian, English, French and German and spent several of his summer vacations in Europe to perfect his linguistic ability. For many years he was the only Ph.D on the staff, giving academic stature and acceptance to the Seminary.<br />Gustave had several hobbies, including painting. One of his efforts still survives: a large oil painting of the bridge across the Vorma River at Minne, near Eidsvoll, Norway was painted from an old photograph.<br />Professor Brohaugh was also noted for his frugality and his astute business sense. He told one of his nieces (Agnes) that he had taken his $300 share from the sale of the family farm in Wisconsin, deposited it in a bank, and never withdrew any part of it. He became president of the 1st National Bank in Red Wing and later president of a bank in Dawson, Minnesota.<br />For forty-nine years Professor Gustave Brohaugh was involved with and taught at the Red Wing Seminary. He had planned to make it fifty years and then retire. Death intervened; he died June 5, 1928 and was buried in Oakwood Cemetery, overlooking the Seminary. That was his wish. [Photo]<br /><br />Karen Martina Olsdatter Brohaugh<br />1858-1940<br />Karen Martina was only fifteen years old when her father died, so she may have remained on the family farm after Bernt bought it. She lived for awhile in Chicago, Illinois with her brother, Rev. Christopher's family.<br />There is no record to indicate when or whey she came to live in Minneapolis, Minnesota, but we know she was there in 1885. At that time she became the housekeeper for Dr. and Mrs. George Edwin MacLean and stayed with that family for fifty-three years. She followed them throughout Dr. MacLean's career as:<br />Profesor English Literature, University of Minnesota, 1883-1895.<br />Chancellor, University of Nebraska, 1895-1899<br />President, University of Iowa, 1899-1911<br />U.S.A.

His parents were Henning Larsen from Stuevold Østre and Ellen Gjertine Sakariasdtr. Barmann from Hitra. They bought the farm in 1830 from Sakse Henningsen of Møsjødal (Rote). Formerly the farm had been a seter under Jensgården in Græsli. Erik grew up here - certainly an existence of much struggle and toil for all to sustain the family.<br /><br />The farming society changed a great deal during the 1800s. There was more and more an end to the idea that absolutely all goods had to be produced on the home farm. New eating habits led to the need to purchase such goods as coffee, tobacco, sugar, salt and flour etc. The payment could be made with cash, but most often the purchase was made through exchange of their own farm products. There were peddlers or 'veskytter' earlier but a more organised trade of goods now began.<br /><br />City merchants had formerly had exclusive right to all sorts of trade. In 1838, Stortinget asked the muniipalities to give their opinion whether farmers who lived more than 40 km from a town should be allowed to trade goods themselves. The Selbu and Tydal council did not like changes in the existing situation. They came to the decision that it was neither desirable, beneficial or useful that the farmers could trade in 'necessities'. As late as 1861 Lensmann Schive stated, "A number of buyers swarm through the district....to whom people sell their products of their farms, partly for cash and partly with trading for other goods. Some trade in illegal goods, sometimes even spirits is associated with these persons"<br /><br />Erik early showed great energy and was quick to take on new things. At only 25 he started with commerce at Lunden. That was comparatively early. Fr. Birch in Selbu opened his store in Selbu in 1852 as the first in the valley. Petter Olsen at 'Varhusbakken' was the first Tydaling who operated trade in food. Much of the goods were purchased from Birch in prepaid amounts. In 1860, Peter bought goods for 500 speciedaler (2000 kroner) from him. Erik was a good merchant and in time forced Petter Olsen out. (Perhaps it was him that Schive referred to with regard to sale of spirits).<br /><br />Erik was very good at calculation but he never learned to write. He certainly did not get a complete education up at Stugudal either. The priest Hansteen said when he passed a confirmant of 18 who had been turned back 3 times, "One cannot expect anything else from you who lives up among the birds"! Trading in credit could have led to problems but Erik solved the accounting with the debtor rather cleverly. A cheese was a circle while a grindstone was a circle with a square hole in it! The system functioned remarkably well. In 1867 he started a 'branch' in Ljungdalen in Sweden. In summer he brought goods like grain and salt etc in pack saddles 60-70 km over the mountain. In winter he used sleds on the same route. He brought back iron wares and other goods the Swedes had produced. There were no roads, only trails.<br /><br />In June 1861, Erik married his cousin Maren Larsdtr. Brendås, born 1840. Maren had a son before marriage, Ole P. Brendås. He grew up with Erik. Over time they had four children together, Lars, Ellen Gjertine, Henning and Peder. As adults, the three oldest went to America while Peder married into Løvøia. As a married man, Erik had to have a farm, so he bought the Berget Vestre property and lived there after.In 1867 his father-in-law sold half of the neighbouring Brennåsen to<br />Erik. The other half was sold to Ole A. Bakken (Hyttmo) from Ålen. With all the forest and outfields that accompanied the purchases, Erik had a significant farm by Tydal standards.<br /><br />Unfortunately Maren died of tuberculosis the 6th July 1874. With 5 minor children to care for and a large farm to operate, it became too hard to be alone for long. As early as April 1876 he maried Margrethe Olsdtr. Hyttmo (born February 1857). It must have been rather tough for a 19 year old girl to marry a man who was 24 years older and at the same time take responsibility for the children. It looks like it went well. From 1876 to 1894, they had 11 children together; 7 boys and 4 girls. Nine of the children grew up but only two remained in Tydal. Their son Lornts died, 23 years old, in a rock fall. Over time six children emigrated to the USA.<br /><br />In addition to his goods trading, Erik was very busy with the purchase of livestock for sale in the city. His stepson Ole P. Brendås remembers that as a child and youth he had to herd the animals barefoot in the mountains all summer before in the fall they were driven down to the railroad for slaughter. In addition Erik had 'rental' cows on may farms and cotter's places. One of these was the cotter 'Berginn' at Bergrommet. He did not have his own animals but Erik had a cow and two sheep 'boarding' there. His parents had operated Berget in their time but he had to move when Erik bought the farm. Ole Pedersen Aas, as he signed himself, was fond of the strong stuff. Berginn supported himself partly with building and carpentry. For the most part he did farm work for his farmer. This did not provide much income. He played cards and drank with Erik in the evenings. Erik played cards in earnest, so much of the earnings went to that and spirits. It was said that Berginn was able to keep just enough that his family did not starve to death. In 1882 the family were helped with a one-way ticket to America. As usual Ole had had a drink and his parting words were that they were now going to depart "this here manure hole". Afterwards clever tongues said that "the manure has gone, but the hole remains".<br /><br />Many Tydalngs enjoyed a party with spirits and card playing on the weekends. Erik was among them. He held an open house for the young people so they could dance. It is told that one fall there was a dance in the summer house. Erik lay fully clothed in a doored bed and watched the young people. On a little table in front of him he had a "doktor" that he sipped. Stor-Ingebrigten of Aasen and his brother Henning got fired up about something and settled up outside. Even though Henning was a powerful man, he met his match in Ingebrigt. Ingebrigt went right back in and danced. But Henning was not finished with the matter so he found a reasonably long pole that he threw through the window. The pole went over Erik's head in his bed and past Ingebrigt and through the other window. Erik exclaimed, "What, Lord Jesus, what is it?" Then he drained his cup in one swallow, pulled his toque over his face and pulled the fur cover over himself. He remained lying there but the party continued without him.<br /><br />Several of his neighbours also enjoyed card playing and a dram. It happened often that they sat up all night and played cards, often "femkort/kule" (a sort of whist). In a set there are two tricks. As the drams were drunk, a little sense was lost. They argued as to who had the most tricks. "I have a trick," said one. "But I have two," said Erik and swallowed the drink. Now and then Erik accompanied a neighbour home to fetch a cow or sheep out of the barn when they did not have enough money to pay up. The next morning was up at the crack of dawn and chopped wood or worked at something - fresh and active, while his neighbours stayed in with hangovers and regretting the night before. It was said the spirits did not affect Erik. The secret is probably that he drank a full glass of cream before the partying began. Margrethe dutifully sat up and looked after the stove, food and coffee. When her husband got tired of the party he got up and said to his life's partner, "If you love me, you'll follow me to our chamber"!<br /><br />One Christmas, Erik overestimated his strength. They were at a party with Lars Halvorsa at Halvorsgården. Erik certainly drank much or perhaps the quality was a little poor? He became unsteady and did not feel fit to walk home. It was below minus 20º outside. His pals decided to put him on a sled and drag him home. So that he would not fall off, they took a rope and tied him down securely.On the way, the rogues came on the idea that they would go in and say that he had fallen and was dead. Erik also thought this would be humorous. He wished to find out what his wife and children would say when he had 'gone' away. Down in the farmyard the helpers would go in and tell the widow and fatherless children the sad news. Erik lay well fastened to the sled an awaited the reaction. There was the snag that when they got in, they asked if Erik was at home. As they knew, he was not, so they asked if they could come in and have a drink before they went further. This was immediately granted. Erik lay outside and became angrier and angrier and more and more frozen. The rope was well tied and things could have gone badly. Eventually he got free and went in. The intruders received the order to depart immediately. Such poor friends he did not wish to see in his house!<br /><br />One Christmas with a great snowfall and strong winds, the old man decided to take a trip up to Bønstrøa and Lars Halvorsa. It was in the middle of the night so it was hopeless to walk. They then hired Svend Aasgård, who was just a youth, to drive them. He refused at first but he would get 10 kroner for the task. (This was several day's pay at that time) The assumption was that they would arrive without the sled being upset. If he could not manage that then he would get a real old-fashioned beating! Sven had a big strong horse and good equipment and they set off. he almost made it but unfortunately the sled upset in a big snow bank. The old man kept his promise and gave Svend a beating before they went the last bit on foot....one's word was one's word.<br /><br />Erik held strong opinions about much. If he did not like a person he did not compromise. This also happened within the family. He quickly got out of step with one of his daughters-in-law. Perhaps he felt she was too domineering? Margrethe felt this was bad. "I feel sh elooks kind," she said the Erik - or "Old-Erik" as he was called when he got up to the "old man" age. "Just wait until she beomes known," was the answer. At the wedding he wished everyone welcome to the table. The in-laws were not mentioned at all!<br /><br />Three of the oldest children emigrated to the USA about 1890. Two of them settled as farmers at Gatzke in Minnesota and after a time did rather well. "Old-Erik" crossed the 'pond' early in the 1900s and liked what he saw there. In the spring of 1911 he sold the farm and took Margrethe and the 4 youngest children on the long trip to Minnesota. Up on Karlshaugen by the highway, they stopped for a rest and looked over Bergegrenda for the last time. "Such beautiful green hills you will never again see, Margret," said Erik, before they went further down the valley. He is believed to be the oldest emigrant to leave Tydal. Erik was then 78 years old.<br /><br />In the USA they lived for the most part on the farm of his eldest son, Lars. Erik was in good health for a long time and helped with the farm work well into his 80s. He continued with a little card playing and a dram on the weekends. A temperance society was established among the Tydalings and other Norwegians in Gatzke about 1915. Erik did not like this. People who invented such modern foolishness he wished to have nothing to do with, he told one of the "apostates".<br /><br />In 1923 Erik celebrated his 90th birthday at Gatzke surrounded by family. Over time there were many descendants in Norwegian America - 9 children and 48 grandchildren. Now it goes further to great-grandchildren and great-great-grandchildren so that today there are many hundreds of descendants of Erik. Many of them have done well over there. In addition there are 3 children and 12 grandchildren with descendants at home in Norway. One can confidently say that Erik was a remarkable and strong personality who left a deep mark after him.<br /><br />Erik died in June 1924, just over 91 years old. His dear Margrethe died in 1930. Both are buried in Landmark Cemetery in Gatzke. The life that started in poverty up in the mountain forest at the foot of Skarsfjellene, ended in Minnesota's fertile and flat land, deep in the USA.<br /><br />Note: Erik came from the same area as John & Guri Nysetvold in Norway. He was related to both of them. The picture is from John Nysetvold's glass negative plates that I have and scanned.<br /><br /></span> <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;font-size:85%;" >Sources: Tydalsboka</span><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /></span> <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;font-size:85%;" > Bygdebok for Tydal</span><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /></span> <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;font-size:85%;" > "The Tronsaune-Rotvold History"</span><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /></span> <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;font-size:85%;" > Conversations with older Tydalinger about Erik.<br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">All Translation Rights Reserved</span><br /><span style="font-weight: normal;"> Republication or redistribution of content or any derivative work for <b>"private use only"</b> is permitted, as long as users acknowledge and attribute any use of material to Olaf Kringhaug.

<span style="font-weight: bold;">FARM HISTORY REGARDING THE STUEDAL NAME</span><br />
<br />
The present Stuedal (dialect, Stugudal) is no older than about 200 years. The dialect form Stugudal has in written references of the name has partly received entry in the past 50 years. This form has arisen because of misunderstanding and lack of knowledge of the actual name pattern.<br />
<br />
In old maps and county records one can find the with great certainty the original name form and its basis. This shows that Rygh has been on the correct track, when he had suggested that the name does not derive from "stue", but a disappeared river name. As a rule we find that the river names, which are primary in name building, give names to the valley and other place names. The river between Mosjøen and Stuesjøen had ben called Stufra, i.e. the short stream (å) The F-sound usually gets softer in speech. Several rivers have the v-form established in support of a fixed written form. There are many rivers called Stuva, whose original form had been Stufra. All are short rivers. The name has the same root as the 'stuv' we still use for the end of a piece of fabric. The lake gets its name from the river here as is otherwise usual, when the named settlement goes 'against the stream', up the valley, which was usual.<br />
<br />
No reasonable person can claim that Stuesjøen lay without a name until a road went by and brought about the building of a shelter (stugu), while neighbouring smaller lakes had names of obviously much older origin. One cannot try to suggest that 'stue' or 'stugu' was separate from any connection to our most ancient forefathers as a terra incognita right down to less than 1000 years ago, while other surrounding sites tell of several<br />
thousand years age.<br />
<br />
One can follow the evolution of the name in archival material, maps and cadasters, Stufr to Stuevoll. And the name arises in that a road shelter with stable was built by a creek at Stuevoll østre for pilgrims, who travelled through Skarsfjellene (Skars mountains) The door foundation can still be seen. It is possible to find an explanation of the hut's building in the Swedish archives. There we find that the information that the archbishop of Uppsala ordered the building of shelters for the pilgrims along the most used pilgrim trails outside of the populated areas. Jemtland belonged under the Uppsala archbishopric, while civil authority was under Norway. Therefore Biskopstuen (the bishop's hut) at Biskopåen (the bishop's stream) was so built by order of the bishop of Uppsala, even though it lay in Norway. It was built only with regard to the pilgrims from and through<br />
Jemtland, for them there was a great need for shelter after the difficult trip over the 'great mountains'.<br />
<br />
Before the Black Death there were clearly occupants at both the south and north end of Stuesjøen, but the dwelings on the south end were out of the way and besides, there was probably no excess of room at any of these places.<br />
<br />
In the archives, old maps and cadasters etc we can note that 'stuv' to 'stu' again clearly shows that the two name types have been pronounced differently (Stuguvoll) by the residents. About the end of the 1600s and the start of the 1700s the Stuvdal name begins to weaken, becomes partly 'Stuv' and partly 'Stue'. The uncertainty is first seen in the cadasters. In old maps the 'Stuv' form is retained the longest. I mention some examples:<br />
<br />
1. Geometrisk declination of Trondhiems Len from 1676: Stuvdahlen og Stuvsjø.<br />
<br />
2. Grensekart Tydalen and Ålen - some years later - righy name: Stufdalen, Stufsjø.<br />
<br />
3. Map of 1718: Stuvdalen, Stuvsøe.<br />
<br />
4. Accurate land map of Norway's 2nd Part, Trondhjemske Stift - Jemtland and Herjedalen 1724: Stuwedalen, Stuwesiø.<br />
<br />
5. Map 1726: Stufvedalen, Stufvesøe.<br />
<br />
6. Map prepared after Armfelt's march, over parts of Trøndelag that his army or detachments visited: Stuvdahl, Stuvsjø.<br />
<br />
7. Border map from Fæmund to Snåsen including greatest part of Jemtland and Herjedalen, first half of the 1700s: Stuvdalen, Stuvsøe.<br />
<br />
8. Map of the borders between Norway and Sweden by military priest Spidberg: Studalen, Stusøe.<br />
<br />
9. Map 1748, regimental map: Studalen, Stusjø.<br />
<br />
10. Map from 1750: Studalen, Stusjø.<br />
<br />
It is shown by the details in several of these maps that the cartographer must have been on the site and had locally knowledgable people with him. Gyldenløve's map for example has such details as Tjønndalstjønn by name and Kinnbekken, now Kvernbekken. The people at the place have pronounced the names of the valley and the lake with 'Stuv' sometimes with a barely audible 'v' so that it was understood as 'Stu'. This, according to the well known sound rules, is quite natural. But the name of Stuevoll was at the time pronounced 'Stugu' which has been transcribed as 'Stue'. Evidence that the name of the lake and river and for Stuevoll had been pronounced differently by the people of Tydal one also has in the cadasters of 1670 to 1677. Here Tomas Greslien pays land rents for 6 marklag of Studal and Peder Aas pays pasture rent for Stusjøvoll, while Bjørn Aas pays for pasture at Stuevoll.<br />
<br />
When Johan Johansen's wife was a sponsor at the end of 1699 in Tydal's church, she was recorded as Ingebor Studal. This shows also that the name had not been pronounced Stugu.<br />
<br />
It appears from the maps that Stuvdal began at Mosjøen, where the river Stuva from Stuvsjø runs out. The Stuvdal name is written along this river, while a farm where the Stuedal farms now, was also called Stuvdal. That this farm has received the valley's name, shows that it is the oldest, and at one time was the only farm above Mosjøen. Nor is there any logical or natural reason that the Stuedal farm, in and for itself, should have gotten a valley name. At the farm and in its nearest surroundings there is no other valley but the main valley.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">THE FARM'S HISTORY </span><br />
In the cadasters I have first found the farm in the beginning of the 1670s. But it is evident that then it was an ancient farm. It is possible that it was at that time a so-called 'åsetegård', that after the Black Death lay unused and therefore had been confiscated by the Crown. This is the first time it is met in the registers and set at 6 marklag and Tomas Gresli has the lease and pays the land rents. That this was another situation than seter use is shown by the fact that at the same time Bjørn Aas pays pasture rent at Stuevoll and Peder Aas at Stuesjøvoll. To what extent Tomas Gressli had used the farm only as a seter or whether he worked it in the winter is not possible to say. He could either have used it himself in the winter or rented it out with seter rights for himself. One often sees from that time that those who have the lease and pay the land rent for a farm, turn the farm over to a 'tenant'. About 1680 Studal became 'His. Majesty's farm assigned to the military', at the same time as fortifications were built on the farm. Quarters were also built for the soldiers, and that stood as a hay barn at Stuedal øvre until 1920-30s. The military assigned the fortification to the Mountain Company at Røros, from where Johan Johansen in 1680 or 1681 was sent to Studal as a local expert. He got the lease to the farm free, nor did he pay any land rent. It is listed in the registry as at 6 marklag, but as not paid. In the military accounts I have seen from Johan Johansen's tme I have seen that he was paid small mounts of cash. This situation with local experts is known from other border districts. I have seen examples from Østfold in which the local expert got free use of somewhat large farms and besides, be paid fairly large amounts of cash. These experts had under them so-called 'scouts'. Johan Johansen also had one, namely Morten Pedersen, born in Jemtland. He continued also after Johan Johansen was replaced by Ole Knudsen. In the census of 1701 there is recorded as living at Stuedal, Morten Pedersen, falconer. The right to hunt falcons was until 1790 under the King, who for a fee to the treasury contracted it out. Morten Pedersen had fairly certainly received as reward foir his services, the right to hunt falcons. Without the legal right to such hunt he would not have reported to the authorities that he was a falcon hunter. As a scout (spy) he could not describe himself as such since that, naturally, was to be a secret. Morten Pedersen, who was from Jemtland was especially well qualified as a scout in this area.<br />
<br />
<br />
Johan Johansen was at Stuedal until 1700 or the beginning of 1701, when he was replaced by Ole Knudsen (cf. the census of September 1701). Acording to the church book for Tydal Johan Johansen's wife Ingebor Studal was on Sunday after Christmas 1699 a godmother to Ole Fossum's child Beret. Johan Johansen moved back to Røros, where he is found in the census of 1701. In the mine accounts of 1705 Johan Johansen is listed, with the nickname Stuedal as a mine worker with a wife, a daughter and a hired hand. In various public documents from the end of the 1600s concerning Røros there appears an Ole Knudsen, but in the census for Røros in 1701 he is not to be found. Therefore one can conclude with certainty that he is the same Ole Knudsen who in 1701 lived at Stuedal. Ole Knudsen who had moved from Røros to Stuedal, was a son of a Knud Olsen who in the census of 1701 was 74 years old, a worker at the smelter. According to the census Knud Olsen had 3 sons, who also worked at the smelter, Peder 40 years, Johannes 39 and Lars 37 years. Ole Knudsen was 35 in 1701. Knud Olsen's eldest son was probably named Ole, but he must have been dead, since the youngest son was born and got the name Ole. Knud Olsen was from Meldal and was sent as an expert smelterman together with other workers from the Meldal mines to Røros in the 1670-80s, when in Røros there was introduced the same smelting methods that the Meldal mines had practised with success for several years. Ole Knudsen was married to Ingrid Olsdatter when he came to Stuedal. The legend that Ingrid was the widow of a former operator of Stuedal with the name Matis, has quite certainly arisen through a faulty<br />
guess based on the fact that in the census of 1701 there is listed as a stepson of Ole Knudsen with the name Jon Matisen, 6 years. The legend is clearly incorrect. Ole Knudsens wife, Ingrid, could have had the son Jon out of wedlock, but it is more likely that she had been married to a Matis Olsen, farmer and worker at Røros Works. This Matis must, according to public documents, have died in 1695-96, he is not found in any documents after that time. Ole Knudsen has through acquaintance connected to Matis Olsen's family. On the 2nd Sunday after Easter 1694 he was a godfather to Matis Olsen's child, Hans. He was probably born either at the end of 1693 or ealy in 1694. There is no reason why Matis Olsen's wife, Ingrid, could not have had a son again at the end of 1695. Jon is listed as 6 in September 1701.<br />
<br />
About Ole Knudsen's life in Røros we have as well the following information: Christmas Eve 1693 at Røros there was baptized a child born out of wedlock, and Ole Knudsen was the father. On 11 August 1694 "Ole Knudsen's sweetheart' was introduced after childbirth (church attendance) On the second Sunday in Lent 1697 Ole Knudsen made public confession (to immoral living). Such confession a child's father could avoid if he declared that he would marry the child's mother.Ole Knudsen must have done this, since the confession was delayed so long, cf. also before; "Ole Knudsen's sweetheart". In 1697, when Ole Knudsen had to make confession, he must have broken with his "sweetheart" and probably begun a new realtionship with Ingrid, who had now become a widow.<br />
<br />
There is more information that suggest that Ingrid had been a son's daughter of Hans Olsen Aasen. He had a son that was called Ole.<br />
<br />
Colonel Schnitler who travelled through Røros and Tydal in 1743 to gather evidence with reference to the border with Sweden, has written in a private notebook, that is kept in Riksarkivet, that at Stuedal he met a descendant of Hans Olsen Aasen - "he who discovered the ore in Storvola and whose picture hangs in Røros Church" This descendant cannot be anyone other than Ingrid, who then was in her 70-80s. The 25th Sunday in Trinity 1697 Ingrid Olsdatter is a godmother in Røros church together with Henrik Aasen among others. It was usual that godparents were chosen from men and women of the same family.<br />
<br />
Peder Ellefsen came to Stuedal soon after 1701. According to the aforementioned Colonel Schnitler's witness records, he was born in Hølanda. Probably he had come to Røros together with other smelter workers from the Meldal mines and sent by the mining company to strengthen the expertise there. Peder Ellefsen soon became the head man at Stuedal, both for military and other reasons. In the military land records he is usually shown alone as the leaser of Stuedal, and in the ordinary land books, where both Peder and Ole are listed, Peder is always mentioned first. In the 'legdsrullen' it is Peder who is listed - not Ole - similarly as 'legdsmann' (chairman of the 'legd'), and Peder - never Ole - is sgown as an assessor at probates, etc. When the farm was divided between Peder and Ole about 1710 with 3 marklag each, Peder's part kept the old no. 837, while Ole's part got the new no.838. (When about 1740 a new registry was worked out, Ole Knudsen's former, now Ingebrigt Halvorsen's farm reached first place with no. 849, while the other farm, that about 1720 was divided between Peder and his son-in-law Lars, got no. 850 and 851. This placement in the registry has since been maintained) It appears also that Peder remained on the old farm. Through his farm site, Stuedal nedre, there runs a creek, and the residences were built where there was easy access to water. Further up the slope, a branch was dug from this creek that went right past Ole Knudsen's new residence - to provide it easy access to water. This side branch is now closed, but it shows clearly that there had not been a natural water course here.<br />
<br />
The western cottage and the old barn at Stuedal nedre bear clear sign of great age, very rough pine timbers--and they had probably been built before Johan Johansen came to the farm. As to Stuedal nedre, Peder Ellefsen's farm, one should further note: Peder's son-in-law, Lars Oppdaling, received about 1720 the lease with the obligations to "provide care" to his father-in-law. But when Peder Ellefsen, who was a widower, married again, the farm was divided, such that Peder and Lars in a lease contract 13 November 1725 each leased 1∏ decares. Lars built his own cottage flush with the old (present east cottage). That these two cottages had as intent to house two separate families is shown by the two doors, side by side, the broad steps, hall, the finishing and the room division. The building method of the eastern cottage also shows that it was built by an especially skilled man, and that Lars Oppdaling had been, cf. the stabbbur that he is supposed to have built. Lars Oppdaling had certainly also come from Røros to Stuedal. At the Works it was the custom to add the community name to the worker's baptismal name. There had certainly been several 'Oppdalinger' at Røros Works. The family name Opdal at Røros stems quite certainly from such. The community name that was attached to the baptismal name, often became a family name. At Røros, besides Opdal we have family names Qvikne, Selbo, Guldal etc. I have also seen the designation "Tydaling" added to the baptismal name of a worker at Røros Works. But this addition, as far as I know, did not result in a family name. After Peder Ellefsen's death, Lars leased the half that Peter had had a leased. The two halves were thus united again under one operator, but were still listed in the records with two numbers, each of 1∏ marklag. Erik Olsen, who between 1740 and 1754 took over the farm after Lars, was married to Lars' daughter Ragnhild. In 1757 there is baptized a Lars, parents Erik Stuedal and Ragnhild Larsdatter.<br />
<br />
In 1725 Ingebrigt Halvorsen came to Stuedal øvre, when he leased the 2 marklag that the widow of his father's brother Erik Olsen, Lidsken, had been the operator of after Ole Knudsen's death about 1720, before 1723. Ingrid, Ole Knudsen's widow kept the lease of 1 marklag.---lease contract of 12 November 1725. A rumour had circulated in the community that Ingebrigt came as an assistant to Ole Knudsen and Ingrid. This quite obviously incorrect, and the legend probably arose on the basis of the interpretation built on experience, that when a stranger comes to a farm or occupies a farm, where there are no sons, it happened often as care givers for the elderly. But no rule without an exception. When Ingebrigt leased the 2 marklag, that his uncle's widow had operated for some years, it is more likely that he came to the farm through her. That Ingebrigt kept for her 1 marklag does not suggest either that there was any 'care giving' situation. Such conditions usually had an arrangement in the lease contract with regard to care giving obligation. Cf. a laease contract from about the same time referring to Stuedal nedre.<br />
<br />
During the registration commission's meeting in Selbu in 1723 Peder Ellefsen attended as an appraiser together with three other Tydalings. Here he stated that he was the leaser of all 6 marklag in Stuedal, that is of both farms. This suggests that after Ole Knudsen's death he had plans of gaining possession of the farm that Ole Knudsen had the lease for, in order to get a farm for his son-in-law. When this plan failed, because Ole Eriksen's widow had obtained the right to 2 marklag in the farm, Peder, who had married again, had to go to division of Stuedal nedre. The livestock that Peder reports, in comparison with other contemporary livestock reports, cannot include other than his own livestock. After Ole Knudsen's death his widow did not do any actual farming nor have any livestock to speak of. Lidsken probably got fodder only from the 2 marklag, and brought the hay home to the farm at Aas. Ingebrigt Halvorsen soon became the main man at Stuedal, more or less replacing Peder Ellefsen, and functioned in all public tasks, whhere someone from the two farms should be represented. Ingebrigt was also entrusted official duties in other respects.<br />
<br />
Between 1740 and 1750 Ingebrigt Halvorsen leased Mjøsødal after Henning Andersen, and before 1778 Ingebrigt and Henning Saksesen (the latter was then the operator of Stuedal nedre) bought Mjøsødalen. In the registry of 1778 for Mjøsødal is shown: "Stuedal's occupant owns one marklag." Ingebrigt, who must then be 81 år, is still listed as the operator of Stuedal øvre. But before 1790 he is replaced by Ole Ingebrigtsen. The farm has since been in the hands of Ingebrigt's descendants, first by dint of lease and since 1921 as an owned property. In 1727 Christian Angell, Trondheim, bought the Stuedal farms and cotter's places. In 1810, Ingebrigt Halvorsen's son's son Hans Olsen settled at Flaten as a cotter under Stuedal øvre, his family farm.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">FAMILY REGISTER OF THE MALE LINE AT STUEDAL ØVRE</span><br />
<br />
1-Tarald (Olsen?) must have been born about 1550. Lived in Aas on a farm, which in the 1600s was called Taraldsgården. In following this farm in the land registers until the 1800s one sees that it is the present Ustgård.<br />
<br />
2-Ole Taraldsen must have been born about 1570-80 and died about 1640. From the tax censuses and land registers one sees that Ole continued at Taraldsgården until 1643 he was replaced by his son Erik.<br />
<br />
3-Erik Olsen, probably born about 1620, died about 1690. Erik comes in 1643 as the operator of Taraldsgården, the present Ustgård. Erik's sons:<br />
<br />
a-Ole Eriksen, born 1650, died probably in 1720. His wife was called Lidsken, and in 1723 is a widow and operator of Taraldsgården, and at the same time with 2 marklag in Stuedal øvre. Ole and Lidsken had a son, Johannes, born 1691, died about 1770. Johannes had a son, Ole, who died 23 June 1764, 36 years old. Johannes had the farm from 1740. In 1778 his widow is listed as the operator of the farm, and in 1790 Bernt Saksesen is listed<br />
as operator. He could be a son-in-law of Johannes.<br />
<br />
4. b-Halvor Eriksen, born in 1660, died between 1711 and 1723, probably in 1720, when in Tydal many men in their best age died, clearly because of some epidemic-like disease. Halvor was married to a daughter of Grim Østensen Aas. Østen Siffursen Aas and his ancestors in two generations had the farm in Aas that is now called Halvorsgården. Halvor Eriksen came as the operator of Østen's farm about 1700 after a Jon had had the farm for a few years. It was probably because Halvor was married to Østen's son's daughter, that he<br />
came to Østen's farm, that since was called Halvorsgården, and was in Halvor's descendant's hands until the 1900s. Halvor Eriksens sons:<br />
a-Erik, born 1690, was unmarried, and seems to have been the operator of his father's farm in 1723 and 1740, but then turned the farm over to his brother Ole.<br />
b-Grim, born 1692, died in a young age.<br />
c-Ole, born in 1694.<br />
<br />
5, d-Ingebrigt Halvorsen, born 1697, died between 1780 and 1790, married to Guri Olsdatter, who died in the summer of 1767. Ingebrigt came to Stuedal øvre in 1725 as leaser of 2 marklag. Cf. this farm's history. It is apparent in several archive sources that Ingebrigt was both an active and respected man. (employed in several public tasks).<br />
<br />
A local legend relates that Ingebrigt came to Stuedal as Ole Knudsen's and Ingrid's helper and son-in-law. The legal helper status one can clearly ignore considering information from the archives. Ole Knudsen died in 1720, and Ingebrigt did not come to Stuedal before 1725 and then as the leaser of 2 marklag, that the widow of his father's brother Ole Eriksen, Lidsken, had had the rights to since Ole Knudsen's death. Ole's widow Ingrid kept 1 marklag. It is absolutely trus that Ingebrigt's was called Guri. Guri Stuedal is often a godparent, several time together with her son Ole Ingebrigtsen. There is no information that Ole Knudsen and Ingrid had a daughter Guri.<br />
<br />
Ingebrigt and Guri had a son Ole and a daughter Ingrid. From this it is also concluded that Guri had to be a daughter of Ole Knudsen and Ingrid. But Guri's father could have been an Ole, even if it was not Ole Knudsen. "The naming from forbears can be a good support together with other information in genealogical research, but alone it can also lead one astray." I will not exclude the possibility that Ingebrigt's wife was a daughter of Ole Knudsen and Ingrid. I only wish to assert that there is no historically valid proof<br />
of it, and that there are no historic dates and that make the assumption doubtful.<br />
<br />
There are circumstances that can lead to the thought that Ingebrigt's wife was a daughter of his father's brother Ole Eriksen and wife Lidsken. It was not legal for cousins to marry without royal permission.<br />
<br />
Ingebrigt Halvorsen and Guri's children:<br />
<br />
a. Halvor, born about 1727, died before 1733, when Halvor nr.2 was born.<br />
<br />
b. Ole, born 1730, married the 12th July 1760 to Marit Pedersdatter Gresli (Per-Hansgarden). Ole Ingebrigtsen continued as operator of Stuedal øvre. He was clearly a modest and hard-working man, who lived under pressure and fear of the brutal evil-doer and bigwig Henning Saksesen on the neighbouring farm.<br />
<br />
c.Halvor, bofn 1733, died 1797. He was married 6th July 1759 to Siri Einarsdatter Løvøen, and at the same time his sister Maren married Lars Einarsen Løvøen. Halvor Ingebrigtsen lived for a time at Løvøen, a time at Kirkvold, and died in Aas. Halvor and Siri had a son Ingebrigt, died in 1796, 27 years old.<br />
<br />
d.Maren, born 1737, married to Lars Einarsen Løvøen the 6th July 1759.<br />
<br />
e.Ingrid, born in 1752, died in 1828. She married Jørgen Andersen Skott, went to Skottgården in Brekken.<br />
<br />
Ole Ingebrightsen and Marit's children:<br />
<br />
a.Guri, born in 1764, married Peder Torkildsen from Floren in Selbu. They lived for a time at Stuedal.<br />
<br />
b.Berit, born in 1766, died in 1859, married Ole Gudmundsen Hilmo, born 1757, died in 1805. Berit was the well known tapestry weaver. I have received one from my mother's brother Johannes Graae. It was woven by Berit. She wove in serial numbers on the cloths, and numbers over a 100 are found. One of these is preserved in the Folkemuseet.<br />
<br />
c.Ingebrigt, born in 1768, died in 1861. He was first married to Anne Olsdatter Saxe from Brekken in 1795. Anne died the same year, and Ingebrigt married the second time in 1798 to Berit Gudmundsdatter Hilmo, born in 1773, died in 1846. Ingebrigt and Berit settled at på Tømmerås in Meraker. See Tømmerås-slekten and Himoslekten.<br />
<br />
d.Maren, born in 1768, married Lars Eriksen Stuedal nedre.<br />
<br />
e.Anne, born in 1769, died in 1795, unmarried.<br />
<br />
f.Gidsken, born in 1770, died in 1875, married in 1800 to Peder Jonsen Brenden, Holtålen.<br />
<br />
g.Peder, born in 1774, died in 1822, married Anne Halvorsdatter from Metlingen, Herjedalen in Sweden.<br />
<br />
h.Hans, born in 1775, married Sessil from Kløften. He settled as a cotter at Flaten under the family farm.<br />
<br />
Peder Olsen Stuedal and Anne Halvorsdatter, children:<br />
a. Marit, born in 1797, married widower Peder Hansen from Ljungdalen in Sweden.<br />
b. Ingeborg, born in 1801, died in 1877, married to Henning Einarsen Løvøen, born in 1799, died in 1887. They settled at Ustgården in Aas. Henning's father's mother Maren had come from Stuedal, and was a sister to Ingeborg's father's father. See Løvø-family.<br />
c. Ole, born 7 February 1806, died 11 April 1885, married 7 February 1831 to Berit Larsdatter Nesvold. They remained living at Stuedal. Ole was 17 when his father died and he had to take over the farm and look after his siblings<br />
and mother. Right after the buildings on the farm burned down, so the young man had a heavy job in the future. Ole was a hard working man, a toiler with a fixed character, sometimes a bit stubborn. For his times he was quite well informed. He was besides a bit of a technical genius which is shown in his work with household utensils. But his work was rough, and he spent little time with it. He was delegated by the priest at every festival day to read the 'text', the sermon for the people of the hamlet, which lay 30 km from the church. The audience came to Ole's home. He read the sermons from Linderoth's Swedish book of sermons. He also read much in the Bible. Berit was gifted,educated and musical. She wrote casual songs, that she sang while she tended to her many children. She was especially happy when Anders Reitan came with his cheerful songs and his violin. About Berit's family see Nesvold-family.<br />
d. Anne, born 25. October 1812, died 23. February 1899, married to Lars Pehrson, Ljungdalen. He was a son of the aforementioned Peder Hansen (See Ljungdals-family.)<br />
e. Halvor, born in 1815, died in 1897, married to Maren Ingebrigtsdatter Stuevoll, born in 1823, died in 1913. They lived in Løvdalen, Jemtland.<br />
<br />

b. Anne, born 21 September 1832, died 4. June 1915, married to craftsman Iver Halvorsen, born 11 February 1843 in Kvikne. They lived in Trondheim.<br />
c. Ragnhild, born 12. september 1834, died 5 June 1931, married to Lars Olsen Aune, Storaune, born 15 January 1831, died in 1897.<br />
d. Peder, born 9 September 1836 died 1 April 1909, married to Kari Graae, born 4 May 1835, died 17 February 1920. Peder took over the family farm and moved the buildings from the south end of Storbakken's east arm to the north end in 1866. He was a good-natured and indulgent man, trusting with strangers, but seldom tricked, and a valuable treasure. He could "do what was needed", could both cut out men's trousers and make shoes, he assisted with difficult births when the midwife was perplexed. He continued his father's function as "prayer leader", read sermons on feast days for the local people, who came to his home. His father's cousin, Ole Flaten, led the singing. I remember well that father cut sheep meat in pieces for soup for Christmas Day. All who came to the text reading were to be served, and so their Christmas party was accomplished. Later into the Christmas season the farm's people went to parties on other farms. About Kari's family see Graae-family.<br />
e. Maren, born 17 March 1839. She died young.<br />
f. Regina, born 29 January 1840, died in 1890, married to Hans Peter Andersen Qvalø. They settled in Nordland. Regina is buried at Brønnøy church.<br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;">THE GRAAE FAMILY</span><br />
<br />
At the end of the 1600s and beginning of the 1700s there was a great emigration from Slesvig to Norge, mainly from Flensburg. To Trondheim also came several Flensburgers, who worked themselves to propsperity, especially as merchants. Among these was a merchant, Mathis Graae, who was also chief officer in Trondheim about 1700. In Danish Personal Histories I have found many of the Graae family, but not in chronologic order. One of the Graae family in Denmark is said to have written a book about the Graae family, but it was not to be published for 15 years after it was written. The deadline has now passed. The book cannot be found in the University library in Oslo. According to a Danish priest of the family the progenitor was a knight in the 1300, - "The Gray Knight" or "Ridder Graa".<br />
<br />
His coat of arms is preserved in the heraldic collection in København, and several of the Graae family's renowned persons have used the arms in their signets.<br />
<br />
The numbers of the family became plentiful in Flensburg, and spread out, especially in all of Denmark as priests, officers, merchants, artisans (several weavers) and brewers etc. I have found one Law Councillor and one State Councillor. The family also spread in Skåne. A son to the aforementioned Mathis Graae, Rasmus, born in 1683, died i 1761, was also a chief officer of Trondheim. He was married to Anna Dorthea Treschow. They had 4 children,<br />
1. Peder, died in the East Indies.<br />
2. Herman, died in 1777. He was an assistant at Negation on the Guinea coast.<br />
3. Mette Margrethe was married in 1759 to the priest Wolff at Strinden, who in his time owned the Lade estate.<br />
4. Agnete was married to Major M. C. Tønder of the Trondhjem's Infantry Regiment. When he died she moved to Denmark, and took up residence at Harboe's cloister.<br />
<br />
A Kristoffer Graae was the magistrate in Lofoten. He died in 1690. The following could be his son's sons:<br />
1. Per Hanssøn Graae, 29 in the census of 1701 at Langsund in Karlsøy.<br />
2. Torsten Hanssøn Graae, 22 at the same census, tenant, Helgøen in Helgø parish,an sole man with a small, poor farm. In Christiania on the 15 Descember 1786 there was buried a "merchant's hand" Mauritz Graae. He could be a son to the Benoni Graae mentioned below. In Oslo there is a Graah family. This form of the name arose in that manner because a Lieutenant in Svendborg (of the Graae family) began to write Graah. Gregorius Graah was likely a son of his, merchant and War Commissioner, and from 1753-1786 a Direktor in København. From this branch of the family there also stems Knud Graah, who moved to Christiania. He built a weaving mill and worked it up to a large factory. Of the same branch I have found: Hans Christian Graah, weaver, died 11 September 1894 and August Wilhelm Graah, medical officer, born 21 May 1860 in Skandborg, died in 1904. Jacob Sørensen of the Graae family signed himself Graahe. He went to Iceland. He was married in October 1629 to Lisse Abelsdatter in Denmark, probably before he went to Iceland. He was on a visit to var pa København in 1687. Then he was 80 years old, and signed as a witness to a will, and described himself as a merchant in Iceland. I remember mymother telling, that her father once said, that he had a relative in Iceland whowas a businessman. Here we must point to a descendent of that Jacob Graahe. About 1680 there came to Kvikne: Benoni Graae from Slesvig. He was a miner and was employed by Kvikne mines. He lived at a place by the mine, and it was later called Gråbakk. Benoni Graae could have been a brother to the aforementioned Mathis Graae, who was a merchant and chief officer in Trondheim about 1700. Of Benoni Graaes children, I know with certainty only: Jakob Graae, born 27 December 1697, died 17 April 1777. He was a chrarcoal and forest warden at Indset smelter, Kvikne, and lived at the Fladmo farm, which he owned. He is supposed to have been married three times, I do not know the names of the first two wives. The third time he was married to Anne Johannesdatter Hagerup, born 15 Descember 1715 on the Frøvik farm in Nerø, Ytre Namdalen, and died 17 April 1794 at her daughtter Marthe Cathrine at Neby, Tønset. Known of the children from Jakob Graae's first marriage are:<br />
a. Nils, born in 1723, died in 1798.<br />
b. Benoni, born in 1724, died in 1768 as provision manager, buried at Kvikne church.<br />
<br />
In 1759 Jakob Graae donated to Indset church a six-armed chandelier and two cows, that were to be put out to rent to provide candles for the chandelier. In his third marriage Jakob Graae had a daughter, Martha Cathrine, born in 1750 at Indset, died in 1839 at Neby, Tønset. She was married to baker Melchior Blomberg, born in Trondheim. He ran a bakery at the mining operation at Indset in Kvikne, and later bought the Neby farm at Tønset, where he operated a country store and inn.<br />
<br />
Melchior Blomberg and Martha Cathrine Graae had these children:<br />
a. Anne Kristine, baptized 7 March 1778, died in 1843, married Peder Tangen from Stange.<br />
b. Jakoba Benona, baptized 3 December 1788, buried 4 February 1789.<br />
<br />
Peder Tangen og Anne Kristine's children:<br />
a. Ivar Julius, born 25 December 1813, died in Tyldal 26 June 1840.<br />
b. Marie Cathrine, born 25 May 1815, died in Tyldal 8 October 1906.<br />
c. Jakobine Michalie, born 4 September 1816, died 12 April 1840, married merchant Ivar Lykke, Trondheim.<br />
d. Birgitte Talette, born in 1819, married to Mogens Marcus Wessel, descendent of the renowned Wessel family (Tordenskjold). She died 24 September 1844 in Hevne.<br />
e. Martha Sophie, born 28 March 1821, died in Opdal 12 November 1902. She was married to the famous lay preacher and farmer Sivert Stengrimsen.<br />
f. Anne Petronelle, born 23 November 1822, died 2 August 1902 in Foldal, married to Morten Mortenson. (Their sons: Silvver smelter director P. Mortenson and the poet-priest Ivar Mortenson Egnund).<br />
g. Melchior Blomberg Tangen, born 29 March 1824, died 12 November 1905. He was first married to Inger Dorthea Wessel, sister of the aforementioned Mogens Marcus Wessel, ans the second time to Helene Dahler. Her father was married Hans Nilsen Hauge's widow.<br />
<br />
3. Nils Jakobsen Graae, born in 1723, died i 1798. He was a smelter manager ved Indset smelter, and lived at Fladmo. He was married four times, first with Martha Nilsdatter Marstrand, born in 1725. (From her family history: Marstrand was originally a Norwegian family, of whom several members had been in technical stillinger. Nils Marstrand was provisions manager at Indset mines. He was married a second time to Anna Evensdatter Meldal of an old Nordland priestly family. Their daughter, Martha, born in 1725, was married to Nils Graae). Nils Graae was married a second time to Sophie Bech, born in 1723 and died in 1763. She was a daughter of city clerk Fredrik Bech in Trondheim and Cathrine Hendriksdatter Hornemann. (In the tax census for Kvikne 1762 there is listed under Indset, Sr. Niels Graae and wife Madam Graae, born Bech. With them lives Arne Hagerup. He is probably a brother of Jakob Graae's third wife, Anne Johannesdatter Hagerup. From this Arne Hagerup probably derives the Arne that has appeared among Jakob Graue's descendents). For the third time Nils Graae married to Clara Marie Tønder.<br />
They were married in their home 22 March 1765, and on the fourth Sunday in Advent 1765 there was baptized at Indset church, Sr. Niels Graae and Clara Marie Tønder's son Jakob, died in 1766. Clara Marie Tønder was a sister to Margrete, born in 1735, died i 1798. She was married to the parish priest in Røros, Thomas von Westen Hammond. One of their forefathers, Dean in Trondheim, Ole Christophersen Tønder, was married to Maren Jørgensdatter Skjelderup. Here we find an explanation for the somewhat peculiar situation, that Nils Graae's third and fourth wives were both named Clara Marie. The fourth time Nils Graae was married to Clara Marie Skjelderup. They were married in 1767, and the same year Clara Marie gave birth to twins. She was a daughter to the smelter manager at Røros, Michel Skjelderup, who changed the spelling of his name to Schjelderup. Nils Graae and Clara Marie, born Skjelderup, on 3 December 1788 were godparents to Melchior Blomberg's og Clara Marie Jakobsdatter's child Jakoba Benona. The 5 November 1791 Nils Graae was a godfather to Ulrich Buchman Flohr's child. From this we can perhaps conclude that Nils Graae's fourth wife died between 1788 and 1791.<br />
<br />
This with Nils Graae's four marriages in such a short period after one another seemed to me a bit unbelievable.Therefore I began careful investigations, and these confirmed the four raoid succession marriages. For the same reason I have also recorded so many details concerning each marriage. These do not uncover any really praiseworthy impression og Nils Graae, according to our time's understanding at least. It does show however, that he had a great ability to get wives from "good families".<br />
<br />
Nils Graae's child from the first marriage was clearly: Martha Cathrine, confirmed in Tønset 25th Sunday in Trinity in 1766. Children from other marriages are not known.<br />
<br />
Children in third marriage:<br />
a. Jakob, døpt i 1765, død i 1766.<br />
b. Martha Sophie, døpt 27. februar 1766 in Elvedal kirke.<br />
<br />
Children in fourth marriage:<br />
a. Jakob, født i 1767, and his twin sister,<br />
b. Anna Elisabet, død i 1843, gift med Kristian Norby, født i 1765, son of the sexton in Tønset, Jens Pedersen Norby. Kristian Nordby became sheriff in Selbu, and for a time a member of parliament.<br />
c. Anna Sophie, døpt 7th Sunday in Trin. i 1768, and buried llth Sunday in Trin. same year.<br />
d. Anna Sophie, døpt 29th Sunday in Trin. 1769.<br />
<br />
4. Jakob Nilsen Graae, born in 1767, was for a time smelter manager at Foldal Works, but was "suspended". He was married to Anna Iversen. After Jakob was suspended as manager, he was at loose ends. In 1799 he is the operator of Bårdsgardsøyen in Selbu. Possibly he had come to Selbu as functionary at the smelter there. In 1801 he lived at Lunden in Tydal. Selbu Works owned this farm for a time, and later by Jakob Graae's brother-in-law mine foreman Johannes Iversen. Iversen later bought Østeraunet. Jakob's son, Nils, became owner of Østeraunet after Iversen's death. It has since been owned by his descendants. Jakob Graae's family certainly lived in their time with his wife's relatives in Foldal, and some daughters seem to have lived steadily at Foldal or at Tønset. His wife and son Nils came, meanwhile, to his wife's brother, mine foreman Iversen, at Østeraunet in Tydal. Hi wife was buried in Tydal. From the renowned community and family historian Didrikshaug in Kvikne, I have obtained the following information about Jakob Graae. In 1812 he was sent to Denmark to purchase grain. The ship was captured by the English, and Jakob sat in English prison until 1814. This informationis not improbable, in that the mining companies in Norway made great efforts to obtain grain for their people, and nothing more natural than that Jakob, who was unemployed as a mine functionary, was sent on a grain-buying expedition. He had many relatives in Denmark, both businessmen and officials. Meanwhile there is preserved by the Graae family's descendants in Tydal, a journal record by Jakob's son, Nils, and it is quoted here:<br />
<br />
"Den 25th November 1808 I went out from Trondheim with Capt. Møller who commanded the Brig 'Kong Eduard', belonging to Hr. Vogelsang of Trondheim. The 1st January 1809 came to Bardoux (Bordeaux) where we unloaded our cargo consisting of fish and fish oil and loaded with wine and brandy to take to Trondheim. We left there the 30th March, and the 14th April were captured by an English frigate called 'Minerva'. The 3rd May came aboard the prison ship 'Prothol' lying at Portsmouth. The 22nd April 1813 I finally obtained my freedom by means of petitions presented by Hr. Robert Dall in Christiansund and Capt. John Wood from Aberdeen in Scotland. The 23rd the same went to London. The 23rd got lodging with Mr. Blaasius No. 23 Hill Street, Tinsbuug Square. The 1st May I hired on with Capt. Lars I. Larsen from Arendal, the ship 'Harmonie' belonging to Hr. Jacob Ebel the same ship.<br />
<br />
Den 12th July went from London and arrived at Arendal the 24th the same. The 29th got our accounts settled and went to Christiansand, where we arrived the 31st the same.<br />
<br />
The 6th August went to Bergen with Skipper Jon Tønnesen and arrived there the 13th.<br />
<br />
The 8th September left there with Capt. Bøhn on the schooner Nyiaden and arrived at Christiansund the lst October.<br />
<br />
The 14th Febr. 1814 sailed from Christiansund, skipper Jon Myre from Trondheim where we arrived the 17th the same. Went from Trondheim the 25th and arrived at Ejdem in Selboe the 26th. The 3rd March went to Tydalen."<br />
<br />
The question is then: Does Didrikshaug's information touch on some confusion? It is, however, so definite in details that it has the stamp of credibility. Nor is it inconceivable that both father and son had sat in English imprisonment. This fate was suffered by many who dared to sail the seas in those times. Of what finally became of Jakob I have no information. He has disappeared.<br />
<br />
Jakob Groues and Anna Iversen's children:<br />
a. Nils, died young in Foldal.<br />
b. Arne, født i 1791, died young, but after 1801 in Tydal.<br />
c. Nils, født i 1792, død i 1845.<br />
Besides there were probably two or three daughters, who remained living with relatives in Foldal, among them Sara, born in 1797. She was married to Elgaen. Her daughter, Johanna, seems to have been somewhat flighty and otherwise led a rather sinful life. She had children with two different men, two sons. One, Johan Hansen, now a known author with another family name. The other had been a barber in Steinkjer (Dahl?).<br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;">THE LØVØ FAMILY</span><br />
Løvøen is first found in bailiff's accounts and cadasters between 1647 and 1660 and was assessed at 6 marklag. In 1661 Jens Gulliksen is shown as leaser and operator. In the census of 1701 he is 90 years, and has a son, Peder, who is 60 years. Peder had taken over the farm between 1682 and 1692. Between 1711 og 1723 Bent Simonsen took over the farm, he was a son of a sexton in Handøl. He was married to Peder Jensen's daughter, Dordi. Bent died in 1758, 99 years old. Bent and Dordi presumably had no children, since Einar Olsen from Østby, married to Ingeborg Larsdatter, came as the operator of the farm between 1740 and 1754. Einar Olsen was from Østbyhaugen. Since he had a daughter named Siri, it is possible that he was a son to a widow Siri, who had one of the Østby farms in 1723. Anything more about Einar Olsens forefathers I have not had success in obtaining.<br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;">The sheriffs</span><br />
<br />
The sheriff in earlier times had a great deal to say, probably because those who were given that office were the most educated and respected farmers who had previously had much to say in the community, a tradition inherited from the ancient chieftains. Otherwise there was not such great demand for knowledge in the position of sheriff. He had to be able to read, for he often received letters from the authorities that he had to read for the people. He also had to write a little, for it happened that the authorities had to have answers to their letters. Very little more was demanded, but just this made him stand high over the people. It could happen that the<br />
sheriffs in earlier times could use this position to further their own interests, and it likely happened since they were the only one who understood writing and obtained things that properly should have been others. But it also happened that they were dismissed quickly for, even though we know of no such circumstance from our community. However, the pay<br />
was poor, and we see that several of them quit. The honour was hard to live off.<br />
<br />
When the sheriff was to summon someone to court, he brought along two witnesses. Later they had to appear in court to make an oath that the summoning was legally carried out. This was a solemn occasion.<br />
<br />
The first sheriff we know of in the community is Einar Grote, who was the sheriff here in 1609. 1657 it is Olle Heksem, 1663 Erich Flotberrig, 1690 Bersvend Megård, 1698 Haldor Flatberg (probably the son of Erich), 1722 Peder Grot (he was also for a time sheriff in Ålen), 1730 Hans Flatberg, 1741 Olle Grot, 1750 Anders Megaard, 1757 Johan Ingebrigtsen Bjorgum, 1766 Lars Grot, 1769 Bersvend Nesvold (together with Ålen), 1776 Gunder Gilset (dismissed because of financial difficulties), 1784 Ole P. Fjeset (together with Singsås), and then in 1808 came Ole Svendsen Midtaune.<br />
<br />
Ole Svendsen was from Andersaune, and at first was a teacher. When he became sheriff he traded farms with his brother-in-law, and came to Ramlo. On the sheriff's farm there was also a jail (above the gate and and the manure cellar). Here often there were prisoners, but they had it rather easy. It is told that school revelers in Knuten would put cakes up in the window for<br />
those who were on bread and water. The sheriffs also used the prisoners for work<br />
on their farms. This is how the 'sheriff's mound' at Rimstad was built by prisoners..<br />
<br />
In 1824 Schjodt became the priest here. He was a quarrelsome fellow, and he and the sheriff had many conflicts. They were like two bigwigs in a sack. The sheriff jad once let a prisoner escape. The priest reported this, so the sheriff got a fine of 5 speciedaler This made for bad blood. Soon the sheriff caught the priest at something, so there was a clerical court for him. Later the sheriff had let a life prisoner 'run around the community and eat with his friends and fight his enemies instead of keeping him in arrest.' The priest reported this to the county administration, which made difficulties for the sheriff.<br />
<br />
Another time there was conflict was one night 'in the dark, some night birds came in my barn and made frightful disorder by running around in the same with lit torches' as the priest said. The sheriff asked the priest not to report this, for among the night birds there was a discharged prisoner who the shefiff had recently transported to Seden, but who had returned and had<br />
been welcomed because he was a skilled blacksmith. The priest would not go along with this, but at a school board meeting it suited the sheriff to aggravate the priest, and he was quick-tempered and mispoke, and later had to go through a difficult reconciliation.<br />
<br />
It was believed that among these night birds was the Sheriff's son, Jonas. This the sheriff could not stand hearing, and declared that he 'encourage my children and servants to conduct themselves with good morals and watch out for the night birds, therefore I can happily say that everyone in my house conducts themselve kindly, decorously and decently, on the contrary one<br />
should not be surprised over the disorder in the parsonage, since the priest encourages the youth to take part in dancing and other sinful pleasures.' This the priest could not accept and suggested that it was not always so orderly in the sheriff's home, and that the children of the sheriff were hardly good examples of propriety.<br />
<br />
Sheriff Svendsen also taught school as well as being the sheriff. Later he got help from his son Svend Olsen, who from 1835 functioned as sheriff, and took over the position after his father. He was also sheriff in Ålen about 1840, and the two communities have since been one sheriff district. In 1862 Svend Olsen became chairman of the board of revision and gave up the sheriff position.<br />
<br />
After him came Ole Hansen from Tynset. He had the position until he died in 1890. Then came his son Morten Sandvold. He died in 1901, and his son Olaf Sandvold got the place after his father. In 1938 his son Andreas Sandvold took over. He had run thesheriff's office for his father the last years, when he was sick. Andreas Sandvold was a trained engineer, He got a position<br />
in 1941 at Norges Tekniske Hogskole, an was succeeded by his brother-in-law Andreas Reitan during the occupation.<br />
<br />
In 1946 K. Karlsen was appointed. He was born in Borsa 1904, has gone to 'folkehogskule'<br />
(college), business school, police academy and a fire inspection course. Has been sheriff's deputy, and from 1938 to 1946 head clerk at Vemundsvik municipal office.<br />
<br />
The court location has been at various places.First at Heksem in 1676, 1713, and later in 1809. Grot was the site 1757-1796 and in 1851, Yset in 1810, and Ramlo in 1845. Now Ramlo has been the site for a long time, and is so still.MaggieBakkehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11175311373064696668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3946754455542874531.post-52698110059601271092008-01-31T13:55:00.001-06:002008-09-10T11:55:10.293-05:00Guri Henningsdatter Stuedal's Family and the siblings who came to America<span style="font-weight: bold;">(1) 1 Henning Henningsen Stuedal (Her Father)</span><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_TyGnxmi5fN5vVEOqW9hZlBip6Epf4y9UjYLW-COK2vIZHkK7iyQ4WrTeD5V1Q67c6TN94Dg5QAAr7rojKLQk_uisZSKno5m-PNnFwbbTeyOeIaHNkfmA4lXBH77BjIAI8sDT4GQ8tvrP/s1600-h/henh.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px;

Our Nysetvold ancestor’s have only used the Nysetvold surname name since 1856, when Ole Svendsen Ramlo f.1827 bought the farm. Ole is the father of John Olsen Nysetvold who emigrated to America in 1872. John came to Flom Township in 1878 with his mother, Kari Jonsdatter Hilmo, who never married and only had one child.<br /><br />Below is a translation by Håkon Skaugvoll in Norway of the Nysetvold Farm in the Haltdalen Bygdebok.<br /><br />Det er nok kolbrenninga som er den første årskaen til ryddinga av denne<br />It surely is the charcoal burning which was the first reason for the clearing of this<br /><br />gården. Ellers har det notk og vori setervoll her under gårdar i bygda.<br />farm. In addition there has been meadow near the chalet beloning to the farms in the settlement.<br /><br />Første busettinga var nok lenger nede på gjardet. Her er det funni<br />The first settlement was further down on the edge. Here it is found<br /><br />tomter både etter fjøs og stuggu. Etter som kolbrenninga åt seg oppover<br />sites after both barns and cottage. As the charcoal burning moved upwards in the<br /><br />skogen, som her sikkert stod tett itett, har ryddinga og eti seg<br />wood, which here surely stood closely packed, the clearing also has moved<br /><br />oppover.<br />uphill.<br /><br />Dei første ein kjenner til som budde her, er jemtlendingar, derav og<br />The first person who lived here, as far as we know, came from Jämtland from<br /><br />namnet Jamtvollen. I tronge tider i Jemtland var det mange som drog over<br />what the name Jamtvollen origin. While straitened circumstances in Jämtland, many moved over the border<br /><br />til Noreg for å prøve lykka. Det er nok og fleire som har komi hit til<br />to Norway to try their fortune. It is also many who came here to<br /><br />Haltdalen, og som da truleg først har tatt inn hos jemtlendingane på<br />Haltdalen, and then possibly first put up by the jamtlendings on<br /><br />Jamtvollen, og sea reist lenger. Det er mest sansynleg at dei har komi<br />Jamtvollen, and later moved further on. Most likely they came<br /><br />over frå Tydalen.<br />over (the mountains) from the Tydalen<br /><br />Den første vi har greie på her, er Erich Pedersen Jamt. Han kon her<br />The first we know about here (on thi farm), is Erich Pedersen Jamt. He came here<br /><br />truleg først på 1700-talet, og hadde fleire born her:<br />probably in the early 1700's, and hade many children<br />1-Peder f.1750<br />2-Kirsti f.1755 d.1795<br />3-Kari f.1761 d.1763<br /><br /><br />Dertil må han ha hatt born som er fødde før, såleis truleg<br />In addition he surely had children who were born before, thus probably<br />4-Anders g.m.

I<br />But it surely were hard conditions to work under, and had accidents. In<br /><br />1776 har han såleis mist alle krøtera sine formedelst skovdyr. Han er<br />1776 he lost all his cattles because of wild animals. At that time he<br /><br />da nemnt som den fattige husmand, og han måtte fleire gonger få<br />is mentioned as the poor cotter, and several times they had to give him<br /><br />fattighjelp. Han hadde nok litt krøtera her, og hadde tatt til å rydde<br />poor relief. He had some cattle here, and had started to clear a bit.<br /><br />litt. Ein finn nemleg at det kjem ein annan jemtlending her, Anders<br />As a matter of fact you find that there came another jämtlending to the place, Anders<br /><br />Andersen, og forholdet mellom desse to frå fosterlandet er nok ikkje<br />Andersen, and the relation between this two from the fosterland (native country) was not any<br /><br />godt. I 1760 er det nemleg pådømt ei sak mellom Erich og Anders. Erich<br />good. In 1760 there was a trial between Erich and Anders. Erich<br /><br />hadde skulda Anders for at han hadde tatt høy frå han i marka. Men Erich<br />had accused Anders for stealing his hay from the field. But Erich could no<br /><br />hadde ikkje noko prov på dette, vitnene gjekk han imot, og Erich måtte<br />prove that, and the witnesses were against him, and Erich had to pay 5 rdlr.<br />betale 5 rdlr.<br /><br />Om det var etter dette at Erich flytta frå plassen, skal ein ikkje seie,<br />If it was after this Erich moved from the place, we can not say,<br /><br />men det er i alle fall sikkert at han reiste herifrå. Truleg budde han<br />but sure enough he moved from here. Probably he lived<br /><br />på Sommervold, og helst da på Evensaunet. Her døydde han og i 1787, og<br />on Sommervold, and if so on Evensaunet. Here he died in 1787, and<br /><br />får denne sluttreplikken om seg : Husmand Erich Jamt, døde som betler,<br />get this final remark : Cotter Erich Jamt, died as beggar,<br /><br />og er begraven av almuen, følgelig intet efterlader sig at holde skifte<br />and is buried by the common people, therefore he do not leave anything to<br />settle.<br /><br /><br />over. Dei borna som levde etter han, veit ein ikkje kvar det vart av.<br />The children who lived after him, one does not know where they went.<br /><br />Dei har neppe slekt etter seg her.<br />They hardly have descendants here.<br /><br />Ellers set det ut til at den andre jemtlendingen, Anders Andersen, kom<br />Beyond that it looks as the other jämtlending, Anders Andersen, came<br /><br />her på same tida som Erich, og at det var han som var største brukaren.<br />at the same time as Erich, and that he was the largest user.<br /><br />Det er rimeleg at det var han som gjekk under namnet Jamtguten. Mest<br />It is a fair supposition (to believe) that it was him who was nick-named Jamtguten ( The Jamt boy). Most probably<br /><br />truleg er det kanskje at dei kom her samstundes. At dei hadde vori her<br />it perhaps is that they came at the same time. That they were here for<br /><br />ei stund før 1750, er greitt, for alt i 1754 gir Anders skjøte til<br />a while before 1750 is clear, because already in 1754 Anders gave the deed to<br /><br />Christian F. Irgens på setervollen Nysetvollen for 10 rdlr., men dette<br />Christian F. Irgens on the meadow near the chalet Nysetvollen for 10 rdlr., but this<br /><br />protesterte Joen Bersvendsen Ramnum, Joen Gudbrandsen Ramnum og Ole<br />Joen Bersvendsen Ramnum, Joen Gudbrandsen Ramnum and Ole Jørgensen<br /><br />Jørgensen Ramnum imot, da halvparten av denne vollen hørte dei til.<br />lodged a protest against, because half of this meadow belonged to them.<br /><br />(Seteren har altså hørt Ramnan-Ramlo til. Ein kan gjette på at den andre<br />(The chalet did belong to Ramnan- Ramlo. One can guess that the other<br />half<br /><br />halvparten har hørt Grøt til, og at dei flytta på Gronsesvollen når det<br />belonged to Grøt, and they moved to Gronsevollen when it became a farm<br /><br />vart gård here.)<br />here.<br /><br />Anders var g. 1755 m.

For retten sa han at han hadde funni<br />to have stolen a woven piece from Guri Nordaune. In the court he explained<br />that he had found<br /><br />veven i vedskjulet, og at det måtte ha vori nokon annan som hadde tatt<br />it in the woodshed, and that someone else must have been stealing it<br /><br />den og gjømt den der. Det er fortalt at skrivaren sa:Har du stjålet tøy<br />and been hiding it there. It is told that the rural judge said Have you<br />stolen cloth<br /><br />av Guri Nordaune, river jeg av deg skinnet.--Ja, det vekser på nytt<br />from Guri Nordaune, I will tear off your skin. --- Yes, it grows on new<br /><br />skinn, sa Jamtguten. Han vart og dømt til å miste huda, og betala dei 6<br />skin the Jamtboy answered. He was sentenced to lose the hide, and to pay<br /><br />alen han hadde klipt av veven.<br />for the 6 alen he had cut from the woen piece of cloth.<br /><br />Etter dette hadde han visst fått nok av Haltdalen.

Anne Larsdtr. Bjørgum.<br />----Ole is the wellknown Ole Svendsen Nysetvold. It is sure that very few may be nobody who has been<br />used as much as him in this settlement in municipal and public position af honor. For some time he studied<br />by a teacher's college to became a teacher. It was the intention that he should be the president of the court<br />for the reapportioning of farmlands to consolidate strips into single holdings, but an elder man was choosed.<br />We refer a notice written by J. A. Kvernmo, printed in Adresseavisen in 1912 :<br />He is son of the wellknown sheriff and president of the reapportioning court, Svend Olsen and wife Marit<br />Pedersdtr., and b. August 12th 1827, d. 1912. Nysetvold has been used very much in the public life of his own<br />municipality as well as outside it.. In 1856 he was elected commisioner for the commision of arbitration first<br />time in Holtålen, and two years later he was elected mayor of the municipality. In 1860 he moved from Holtålen<br />to Østby in Tydal, where he stayed for three years. After his return to Holtålen he again was elected commisioner<br />for the commision of arbitration in 1864, and mayer once more in 1866, which assignments he had to 1905. For<br />the same period he was a member of the road-committee of the amt (county), also the head of the committee for<br />some periods. He was amtsrevisor or county accountant for many years. In 1873 he was elected representative<br />from Søndre Trondhjems Amt to the Storting, and represented the amt for two periods. For a period he was used<br />by almost evry reapportioning of the farmland in Guldalens court of law, and many times he temporarily was appointed<br />as chief of the court. In the same way he was used by other public assessments. In 1903 he was given the silver<br />medal for outstanding civic service by the King. In his latest years he lived on his farm by his son-in-law. To the end<br />he had both his physical and mental strength intact. Thus he up to a few years ago, he went the 8 kilometers from<br />his home to the church. And when he was at home he steadyli work with woodcutting.<br />The author of the bygdeboook says that there is not much to add. Nysetvold, Gammel-Jamtvollen was no speaker, to make speeches he found difficulty. But he was a man with high intelligence and good practical judgement. And at first and at the end : he was an outstanding writer. And he had a beatiful handwriting. The pen was his strength. And he wrote a lot. It is told that his fingers was so use to the pen that they were never rested even if he did not wrote., and the fingers were the latest of his muscles to move when he died in 1912.<br />------<br />In 1905 Ole Svendsen Nysetvold sold the farm to his son-in-law, Ole P.

It well explains the naming practices so everyone should understand.<br /> <span style="font-weight: bold;"></span><br />Norwegian naming practices are unique and can be a bit confusing. Traditionally, there were three parts, the first name, the patronymic and the farm name such as Erik Jonsen Bakke, and we'll deal with them in turn.<br />First names are simple, there are the ancient Norse names such as Olaf, Håkon, Bjørn and Erik. When Christianity came in the 11th century there was a profusion of Christian names such as Peder, Jon, Paul and Johan.<br />There was a tradition that was fairly rigidly followed until the 19th century. Children were usually named after a grandparent or other family members. A first son would be named after his father's father, a second son after the mother's father. A similar situation occurred with daughters. This could get a little complicated if both grandparents had the same name. Using our example, if there were two Erik Jonsens in the family, they might be distinguished as Big-Erik and Little-Erik.<br />Children could also be named after deceased uncles and aunts and even deceased siblings and occasionally after a great-grandparent. Quite commonly a widowed spouse in a second marriage would name the first child after the deceased spouse.<br />Patronyms are probably the most confusing aspect of Norwegian naming practices. The name patronym or patronymic derives from late Latin patronymicum from patr- (father) + onyma (name)]: a name derived from that of the father or a paternal ancestor usually by the addition of a suffix.<br />In the case of Norway this was practiced by adding the suffix '-sen' (son) or '-datter' (daughter) to the father's name. For example if Jon had a son Erik, he would be known as Erik Jonsen, or a daughter might be known as Marit Jonsdatter. The patronym was not a surname but just an expression of who their father was. Women would retain their patronym when they married.<br />Then there are the farm names. All farms in Norway have a name, in addition to the Land Registry numeric descriptions. Most of these farm names are a geographic description of the farm. Bakke or Bakken, for example means a hill and the name would be applied to a farm up the hill. Since there might be more than one Erik Jonsen in a community, they would be distinguished by adding the farm name to the rest of their name. Our man might be known as Erik Jonsen Bakke, or commonly just Erik Bakke. Again, these were not surnames. Erik Jonsen Bakke only means Erik, Jon's son, who lives on the Bakke farm. The Bakke can be considered an address.<br />As society modernized and the state became more involved in people's affairs, this system became a problem. So, in the late 1800s the government asked people to voluntarily take a fixed surname and for women to drop the -datter in favour of -sen and, when married, to take their husband's surname. It was made compulsory in 1923. Most people used patronymic surnames when they settled the issue of a surname.<br />An interesting observation. Iceland, which was settled by Norwegians, still retains the old patronymic system. It may seem strange to us, but people refer to each other by first name and even the telephone books are listed by first names.<br />All rights reserved.<br />Olaf KringhaugMaggieBakkehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11175311373064696668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3946754455542874531.post-47466833180665800772008-01-30T15:08:00.000-06:002008-09-10T11:55:10.295-05:00Anne Teoline Olsdatter Fidjestol & Erick Stolen<div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEianFNJC44cqquhmUtIWu6QvlEkPPCOZRYy3N4lsACPCxf0rAh3GqD2oteime3vQee-tHx3U5-KpAKjDGKh_J8uVPAhVngQUM4cfnlOcQbDqrTPzKJ0B3FyyUnXRF-iO7voXW06Wdh1PW18/s1600-h/Teoline.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEianFNJC44cqquhmUtIWu6QvlEkPPCOZRYy3N4lsACPCxf0rAh3GqD2oteime3vQee-tHx3U5-KpAKjDGKh_J8uVPAhVngQUM4cfnlOcQbDqrTPzKJ0B3FyyUnXRF-iO7voXW06Wdh1PW18/s400/Teoline.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5161393303591365298" border="0" /></a>Anne Teoline Olsdatter Fidjestol<br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div>(1) 1 Ole Hansen Royseland<br />—————————————————————————————————————————————<br />Birth: 1830, Kvaas Lyngdal Vest Agder Norway<br />Death: 1914, Kvaas Lyngdal Vest Agder Norway<br />Father: Hans Stenersen Royseland (1802-1888)<br />Mother: Dorte Samuelsdatter Li (1797-)<br /><br />Spouse: Gunver Tollisdatter Fidjestol<br />Birth: 27 Jul 1835, Kvaas Lyngdal Vest Agder Norway<br />Death: 1913<br />Father: Tolli Olsen Kvaas (1803-1865)<br />Mother: Anne Tollisdatter Fidjestol (1811-1877)<br />Marr: 1 Jun 1862, Kvaas Lyngdal Vest Agder Norway<br /><br />Children:<br />Tomine Dortea Olsdatter (1863-1937)<br />Anne Teoline (1865-1903)<br />Tobias Olsen<br />Lisbet Olsdatter (1867-1942)<br />Hans (1869-1954)<br />Amalia (1872-1953)<br />Dorothea (1875-1965)<br /><br />(2) 1.1 Tomine Dortea Olsdatter Fidjestol<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhF4DyuVVf3XPQ1jnxiKOGJBC6fjYGhQDccEW6cDEl-HMULQYWHi9CBefq3HQtv9E6C-Ms9q1WDnHkvhWJI9eaUpAX2Upx2LLYAhQOzRL_KjA2ff2rWs45l-MtaOvjYq8wZPogoJ2M694c7/s1600-h/tomdo.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhF4DyuVVf3XPQ1jnxiKOGJBC6fjYGhQDccEW6cDEl-HMULQYWHi9CBefq3HQtv9E6C-Ms9q1WDnHkvhWJI9eaUpAX2Upx2LLYAhQOzRL_KjA2ff2rWs45l-MtaOvjYq8wZPogoJ2M694c7/s400/tomdo.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5161384434483899010" border="0" /></a>Source information: Vest-Agder county, Kvås, Parish register (official) nr.

He was baptized and confirmed in Norway. His parents were not married and went on to marry others. He married Beret Nielsdatter Loften on November 27, 1851. Beret was the daughter of Niels Erichsen and Ragnil Thronsdatter. She was born in 1825 in Sodorp, Nor Fron, Oppland, Norway. She had the following siblings: Johannes, Kari, Thore, Mari, Mari and Erik Nielsen Loften.<br />The family is found living on the Skansgaard farm in the 1865 census of Norway and the 1875 census of Norway. Skansgaard was a small farm under Kjorstad in Sor-Fron. It was a husmannsplass. It was named Skansgaard when a husman came back from a war and named it so. The name is not rooted in farm names in Fron. Loften was a husmannsplassar in Nord-Fron.<br />Not much is known about Amund and Niels. Amund was born on January 10, 1859 and Niels was born on October 11, 1854. Amund emigrated from Bergen, Norway on March 24, 1880 on the Stjerne Line. His place of residence was given as Haus. The day before, on March 23, 1880, his brother Niels emigrated from Bergen, Norway on the Inman Line. His place of residence was given as Haus. It is not known if the brothers were in this area when they came here. We do know that they lived on the West Coast, probably in Washington State. Amund changed his name to Edward Holmer and Niels changed his name to John Ring. It is known that Amund/Edward worked on “Bergen’s banen” in Norway in 1880. The road was built at that time from Bergen to Voss. Amund/Edward also used the name A.E. Holm. He stated in one letter to his parents that he had changed his name because it was hard for people to pronounce Skansgaard. Both men were known to have been in the Salt Lake City, Utah area at the turn of the century. One letter was received from Niels/John that was written on April 29, 1894 from a hospital in Salt Lake City. He talks of being very sick and about going to San Francisco to receive treatment from a Chinese doctor. That letter he signed Neils Erlandson. Amund/Edward died in 1936 in Washington State it is presumed. A letter was received from the Royal Norwegian Consulate in Seattle, Washington. It was to do with an estate that was left after his death.<br />Erland and Beret emigrated from Oslo, Norway on April 25, 1884 on the Rollo. Their passage was prepaid, more than likely by one of their sons who were already all in America. Their place of residence was S. Fron and Storback was their destination in America. They landed in Quebec, Canada in May of 1884. Starbuck, Minnesota is where they first went to when they arrived here. His contract #16575 with Allan Brothers & Co. for his and Beret’s passage, reads as follows:<br />Erland Hansen has received of the undersigned, (against payment of passage-money, including landing money in Quebec, Boston, Halifax, Portland or Baltimore, as specified) Through ticket #16575 for 2 adults to be forwarded to Starbuck, Minn. in the following manner:<br />1. By Steam-Ship to Hull, where the separate Steam-Ship ticket is to be given up;<br />2. By Railway to Liverpool;<br />3. By Steam-Ship to Quebec, Boston, Halifax, Portland or Baltimore;<br />4. By Railway to destination.<br />During the whole journey hence to America, passengers will be supplied with good and sufficient food as well as with suitable lodging; and this arrangement stands equally good in the event of any unavoidable delay or accident interrupting the journey, which in that case will be continued as soon as possible in a satisfactory manner.<br />Passengers must attach a full and plain address to each of their luggage packages.<br />10 Cubic feet Luggage per Steam Ship and 100 pds per. Railway free for each passenger above 12 years old; for children between 1 and 12 years of age, half the quantity.<br />On arriving in England, passengers must not hasten to go on shore, but wait until they are fetched by our Correspondents’ people, who will make themselves known by showing a list of all the Passenger’s names.<br />Passengers should not have any dealings with Interpreters. Tins and bedding should be bought in Norway or in Liverpool.<br />On arriving at America, Passengers must be careful not to let themselves be persuaded to take Lake-Steamer tickets instead of their railway tickets.<br />Passengers should hold to this contract and show it as often as they have occasion, but not give it up until they arrive at their destination.<br />A deposit of 20,000 Norwegian Kroner has been made to the Norwegian Government as security for due fulfillment of this contract.<br />E. H. Skansgaard made his Declaration of his intention to become a citizen in Pope County of Minnesota. He could not write, so he signed with an X and it was witnessed by A.L. Brevig. We do not know how long they stayed in the Starbuck area.<br />When they came to Flom Township, they lived in Section 27 on a farm.<br />Beret died May 24, 1898 and Erland died November 29, 1909. They are both buried in Aspelund Lutheran Church Cemetery in Flom Township of Norman County, Minnesota.<br /><br />(1) 1 Erland Hanssen Kjorstadeie<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIeg4CEW5s8ehr4IrTg1Bky-C9vpn0LPtJT5z1uN39kPVIAH4PcERQpf0RJQG5o9UT8IgRzmtbQVwvoHyItVRwOt6VUbdwPnfp1qmW2CC7Yrl7SQjCfZ_uflRym99agAsmWcw3BCktjmwc/s1600-h/erlie.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px;

Mrs. Bakke's health is fair and she is able to be about the house doing some of her own work every day. She knows she is pretty old but isn't quite sure if she is 100 or not. Her children have been keeping track of her birthdays for her. Dispite her age, she is up and around everyday. Mrs. Bakke speaks mostly Norwegian and answers questions through her children most of whom also speak norwegian. One hundred years ago today, Julia Gertrude Skulborstad Bakke was born at Stjordalen near Trondheim, Norway. She lived there until she was 17 years old and left for America, April 10, 1871 on the Stavangerfjord ship celebrating her 18th birthday on board ship before she landed in Quebec, Canada on May 1. From Quebec, she travelled by train and boat to Zumbrota, Minnesota. where she lived about one year. In 1872, she married Ole Bakke who died in 1910 in Polk County, Minnesota. They farmed in the Kenyon area until 1887, when they filed a claim on a homestead in Minot, ND, where they lived until 1890 when they moved to Garden township near Fertile. Mrs. Bakke has made her home on that farm ever since. A mother of 14 children, ten which are still living. Mrs. Bakke has been a member of the Little Norway Lutheran Church since 1892 and also a member of the Ladies Aid of the church since that time.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjrWJi2KKkaU3iQxjKI0Pg9h7k-XzhiPQoiH1lLlCjxzO4uCKHdICWj2Nu0xVoXoqp_j7fexVCo6BCSDunCcEKfCAKz2uBSqHQEUJnXkWDy8ihjRof21wsNlw7oCnmdjUQJ07zmJvNPBJH/s1600-h/julia.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjrWJi2KKkaU3iQxjKI0Pg9h7k-XzhiPQoiH1lLlCjxzO4uCKHdICWj2Nu0xVoXoqp_j7fexVCo6BCSDunCcEKfCAKz2uBSqHQEUJnXkWDy8ihjRof21wsNlw7oCnmdjUQJ07zmJvNPBJH/s400/julia.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5160984130647009602" border="0" /></a><br />Church Records state she was born May 9, 1853 and baptized June 19, 1853.<br />Source information: Nord-Trondelag county, Stjordal/Nedre Stjordal (Værnes), Parish register (official) nr. 709A14 (1845-1858), Birth and baptism records 1853, page 124.<br />Sponsors:<br />K.
