Hi, I am looking for more information on Ole Johansen. He supposedly came to Norsewood, NZ from Norway with his son Olaf in 1872. Ole was 40 when he got to NZ and Olaf was 9.
I am also trying to find out about Ole's parents and maybe a wife???
If anyone has any information about them please let me know. |

Note: "Saalør" should prob. be Solør in Grue, Hedmark.

Emigration on the Høvding in 1872:
Ole Johannesen (40)
Marthe Kristoffersen (40)
Oluf Johannesen (10)
Josefine Johannesen (4)
Oluf

Josephine Clara

You probably noticed that Josephine's age on the Høvding didn't fit with her chr record..., the girl born 06-Feb-1865 must have died as an infant; the parents had a new girl named Josephine in 1867:
Josephine Martha
Born 24-Sep-1867, Chr 01-Jan 1868, Gamle Aker church, Oslo
Parents: Ole Johannesen & Marthe Christophersdr, Maridalsveien 191
Marthe's brother Ole Christophersen is one of the Godparents.
