My ggrandmother Petra Oline Marie Pettersen was born in Hadsel 3/24/1877.
I have not been able to find her in the 1900 census.Also,
I am having difficulty finding a marriage record for her.
Karl Edvin Fabian Forshell - her husband - supposedly
sent a note to Tromso stating that he was never married
before. So I assume that they were married in Tromso.
How can I find a record of the marriage?
Can you good people help me?
