Looking for my US relatives:
Simen Olsen (Roland) born 14 mar 1826 (Faaberg, Norway)
Married 1848 w Sigrid Pedersdatter born 23 jul 1824 (Faaberg, Norway)

Most of the family moved to Minnesota.
Parents in 1884 or 86 with 2 of 8 children:
Ole Simensen Roland, born 1 apr 1867 (methodist minister)
- Ole married Carrie (Karen Oefstie)
Anna Simensdatter, born 9 januar 1872

The others also emmigrated to the US/Minneapolis:
Pauline Simensdatter, born 17 apr 1852 (emmigr. 1883).

Gina Simensdatter, born14 dec 1854, married with Bernt Andersen by Urlien (emmigr. 1881).

Sina Simensdatter, born 5 jan 1858 (emmigr. 1881).
