Can anyone help? I have found a piece of paper which say that Oluf/Olaf Andreas Sivertsen Dahl born 1859 Bergen - ships carpenter died in Laurvik/Larvik in 1909. He was currently living in London with his wife and children and called himself Alfred. It was said that he missed his ship back to London caught a chill and died. I have searched everywhere I can think of for his death. Can anyone tell me where I should look now.

The parish registers for Larvik might have a record of his death. They are on microfilm and you can rent the film from the LDS Click Here
