OSKAR REISTAD Hidra ved Flekkefjørd? Who were his parents?
Min morfar OSKAR REISTAD f. 1897 (jeg tror han er født på Hidra, familien bo på Reistad)
OSKAR reiste til Brooklyn c. 1921
gm TOMINE ABRAHAMSEN f. 1900 Tjørve, Lista
Hun emigrete til Brooklyn i 1922 or '23
De gifte seg i Brooklyn
Mamma [Allis Synøve aka Alice] var født i Brooklyn i 1927
Oskar fikk TB, de reiste tilbakke til Norge i 1929
Han var i på sykehuset i Mandal [Mandals Sanetorium]
Jeg tror han døde der
Etter han døde, Mormor reiste tilbake til NY, hvor hun tjente.
Mamma ble igjen i Norge - på Tjørve. Hun kom til Amerika like før kirgen
Oskars halvbror heter onkel THORVALD REISTAD gm Gunhild
Som jeg forstår min oldemore døde and oldefar gifte seg på ny med hennes yngeste søster.
Den yngeste sønnen ifra ekteskapet var Thorvald
Thorvald og Gunhild hadde barn som reiste til USA, New Jersey kanskje
den yngste sønnen er mer eler mindre på min alder f. i c. 1955
jeg tror han heter Yngve eller Ingvar
Thorvald og Gunhild bødde i hva jeg tror va familiens heim på Reistad. Jeg kan huske at vi gikk tur mot sjøen og der var der også et hus som de eide.
Jeg kan også huske at mamma hadde ei tante trine på Feda (Feda va i nærheten av Kivesdal)
Er disse min morfar, tante Trine of oldemor?
fra NDA 1900 Census
OKSAR OLSEN [resident mt - hva betyr det?]f. 1897 Flekkefjørd [sønn av nr. 4 - men jeg kan ikkje finne nr. 4]
TRINE OLSEN f. 1893 New York [ dtr av nr. 4]
Hvem er nr. 4?
BERTINE OLSEN f. 1870 Flekkefjørd snedkerkone
Jeg tenker at original etter navn var Olsen og at Oskar tok gaardsnavn Reistad når han flyttet til Amerika
Er Bertine mamma til Oskar & Trine?
Mannen til Bertine er ikkje nevnt, er han kanskje i Amerika for å jobbe? Trine var født i NY, det er mulig at oldeforeldrene mine var begge to i NY når tante Trine var født, før morfar OSKAR var født

Yes, the birth year for OSKAR OLSEN aka OSKAR OMLAND aka OSKAR REISTAD all match. The 1900 DIS records show OSKAR OLSEN born in Flekkefjørd 1897 living on Hidra and on the same farm are TRINE OLSEN born in NY 1893 [presumably his sister] and BERTINE OLSEN born in Flekkefjørd 1870 [his mother?] In other words, yes the Olsens match the Omlands.
That begs the question, who was Mr. Olsen aka Mr. Omland? Is I'm sure there are several Omlands in Norway, is there one either near Flekkefjørd? Near Kvinesdal? I ask this because tante Trine (who I do not remember, I just know that she was older than my grandfather, Oskar, lived at Feda which was near Kvinesdal). I assume that Oskar and Trine's paternal grandfather was named Ole. Surname? Can you figure that out? I also assume that when Oskar immigrated to the US he took the gårdsnavn Reistad.
I do know that Oskar had other siblings. There was a tante Magnhild and one other sister who lived in Brooklyn. Then there was the half brother onkle Thorvald (married to Gunhild) who was still alive in 1987, but has since then died.
Also connected was Ansine, I think she may have been Oskar's cousin.

| You seem to have fairly firm time period for his birth and a location. Why not scan through the birth/baptisms for that year (I always include the year before and year after if necessary) for the clerical district of Flekkefjord in Vest-Agder. The LDS Family History Library has microfilm copies of the originals that you can order and use at the nearest LDS Family History Center to your current location. |

Thank You for the LDS info.
That sounds time well spent on my next vacation.
I am now digging up other ancestors from materials available at home
Thanks for your help |

The previous questions are all cleared-up (see below). Now I have new questions.
Can anyone find Trine Marie Gunsteinsdatter, Træland and her husband Ole Samuelsen, Træland in Liknes sogn, Kvinesdal? OR Ingeborg Burie Berntsdatter, Omland and her husband Hans Tobias Hansen, Omland, Hidra sogn, Flekkefjord?
Martin Olsen Reistad b. 1872 in Kvinesdal (not Reistad on Hidra like I had thought)(He was still alive after the war, don't know when he died)
He is the son of Trine Marie Gunsteinsdatter and Ole Samuelsen, Træland, Liknes sogn, Kvinesdal
Martin Olsen married twice. 1st wife Bertine Elisabeth Hansdatter Omland b. Dec 14, 1869 - d. Nov 29, 1912. She was the daughter of Ingeborg Gurie Hansdatter and Hans Tobias Hansen, Omland, Hidra sogn, Flekkefjord.
His 2nd wife was the younger sister of the 1st wife Tora Gardine Hansdatter b. 1883 - d. in the 1960s. The date of his second marriage is April 18, 1914. (1 1/2 years after the 1st wife died).
Children from the first marriage
1. Trine Marie b. 1893 - m. 1913 moved to Brooklyn, then back to Norway - Feda near Kvinesdal - died there
2. Oskar Trinius b. 1897 - moved to America - died in Norway in 1928
3. Torvald Emanuel b. 1904 - d. 1912
4. Hedvig Edvarda b. 1906 - went to US
5.Magnhild Bergliot b. 1907 - went to US
6. Sigvald Trygve b. 1910 - went to US
Children from the 2nd marriage
7. Torvald Bernhard b. 1915 - d. 1990s
8. Edvin Hjalmer b. 1917 - went to US
9. Magne Garfield b. 1926 - don't know anything about him
In the 1900 census, martin and his wife Bertine lived at søndre Fjellgate, Flekkefjord. According to the census Martin was working as a carpenter in the US. That might be the reason why there were no children between 1897 and 1904. In 1903 Martin bought a farm at Reistad, close to Omland where his wife came from. Interestingly, the family he bought the farm from sold to move to the US - they left Reistad on Aug 27th 1903.
So, now I'm looking for help in finding out about Martin and Bertine's parents.

REISTAD FAMILY FROM HIDRA
