I wonder if the niece and nephew shouldn't have been grandchildren??

Hello, I'm new to this. I was looking on the Norway website and somehow found this. My maiden name was Tinbo. Infact on the ND Cenus mentioned for Tinbo, Ole, he is my grandfather. My father is the Peter that is listed! He was born in 1895. In Churches Fairy, Ramsey County, ND. Yes that is correct he is my father. He was a few days from being 60 when I was born. When I saw this discusion I couldn't believe it. I hope someone is still watching this and will reply.
