Hey gang-
Got a new one for us. According to everyone elses family tree, it does not make sense. Here's what I got.
Erek Erickson
Born April 30, 1830 in Hedmark, Norway.
Not sure exactly what year he emigrated to Wisconsin, USA but he married Marthe Gjodingsdatter born June 1833 in Norway (No location given in Norway). It is believed they married in 1863.
I tried searching for them but could not find them.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Lucas |

The name Gjodningsdatter confuse me, must be Amercanized, but from what?
Obs!!!
Did Erik Eriksen have a namesake b. 1830 in Grue ?
Erik Eriksen born April 30. 1830, parents Erik Olsen and Eli Paulsdatter.
There is a big But, this Erik married Anne Danielsdatter April 4. 1860, em. to America, dest. La Crosse, with wife and 4 children in1868.

I assume that this is the same family in the 1880 US Census. The daughter Elena is listed here as being born in Wisconsin in 1864, casting some doubt on the 1866 immigration date from the 1900 Census. Do you know where the first child was born.

If this is the same family from 1870 US Census, and it appears as if it is, it shows a son Carl born in 1859 in Wisconsin. Indicating that they came to the US much earlier than other information and were perhaps married before 1860.

Just a thought.
Perhaps Gjoding was Gjøding.
Gjøding was name of the rectory in Hurdal municipality, Akershus County.
There were 10 subfarms, Gjødingeie, under Gjøding.
Perhaps Marthe Gjøding(datter)was born there?
A shot in the dark;
I found a Marthe Christiansdatter (Olsen) born in Hurdal June 16. 1833 on Bamrudeie to Christian Olsen and Anne Davidsdatter.

I have had the same thought about Gjodingsdatter. Perhaps it was Gjødingsæter?
One candidate: Maria Gulbrandsdatter, born Sept 1832..
Confirmation 1847. The family left the parish 1855, but Maria was not with them.
- or Marthe Olea Christansdatter, leaving the parish 1857, born Jan 1833 |

The next door neighbor to Erek Erekson in 1880 is Ole Erekson (51). I wonder if it his brother?

Source Information: Greenfield, La Crosse, Wisconsin
Children of Erik Olsen & Eli Poulsdtr in Grue, Hedmark:
Poul Eriksen, Born: 17 NOV 1823, Braaten Under Vaalberget, Grue, Hedmark, Norway
Kari Eriksdatter, Born: 30 MAY 1825, Braaten under Vaalberget, Grue, Hedmark, Norway
Ole Eriksen, Born: 06 JUL 1828, Braaten Under Vaalberget, Grue, Hedmark, Norway
Erik Eriksen, Born: 30 APR 1830, Braaten under Vaalberget, Grue, Hedmark, Norway
Anne Eriksdatter, Born: 29 JUN 1832, Braaten under Vaalberget, Grue, Hedmark, Norway
Kirsti Eriksdatter, Born: 13 SEP 1834, Braaten under Vaalberget, Grue, Hedmark, Norway
Ole Eriksen (25) & Marie Mathisdr (31)
Marriage: 19 JUN 1853, Grue, Hedmark, Norway
His Father: Erik Olsen
Her Father: Mathis Pedersen
If it's the same Ole as in Greenfield, he must have re-married, since name and age of his wife does not match. His mother-in-law in 1880 is Mary Anderson (80).
