I just learned that my great grandfather, Halvor Ellefsen's father's name was Ellef Olsen and my great grandmother's father's name was Nils Rasmusen, but I do not know what their mothers' names were. Could MAS or anyone else help me with that.

The name of Halvor's mother was included in that last response to your original posting.

Perhaps you should continue with that thread rather than starting over.
