A 17 Feb 2006 posting by Carol Ulberg to John Follesdal's guestbook at 'Ancestors From Norway' website -
"Location: Samoa Comments: Hi everyone. Im trying to find out whereabouts my great grandfathers family are from and are there any living relatives at the moment. The last I heard, a Bruno and Renata visited Samoa back in 1980 or 1981. Please anyone any information would be greatly appreciated. Im sorry but I only have my greatgranddads name but no birthdate. His name was Peter Christian Ulberg from Oslo Norway. God bless you all."
A 17 March 2004 posting by Tessie Weir to Genealogy.com's Norway Genealogy Forum with link to response -
"I have recently discovered that my great great grandfather was born in Ornslow(Oslo)Norway January 1832 and would like to obtain a copy of his Birth certificate. I was informed that any Birth record in Norway in the early 1800 has to be obtained from a Church Record of babtismal, since the earliest record in the Updated Database in Norway is in 1925.Do I need to contact all church records in the area of oslo from 1800 that is still operating?? I also discovered some Farms in Norway name Ulberg which is my Great great grandfathers last name.His full name is Peter Christian Ulberg,could a person born on farm use the Farm name for a last name?? If anyone has any information about obtaining a birth certificate I'd really appreciate the info or any relation.Peter Christian was married to So'onafai Maria De Carmel in Western Samoa 1869 and died in Western Samoa in 1899."

On the 22 July 2004 someone listing themselves as 'uso' also posted a query about the Ulbergs of Western Samoa -

I was hoping that a posting somewhere would give such additional information as WHEN Peter Ulberg arrived in Samoa or New Zealand, which first if both? Did he have any particularly unique occupation (blacksmith??), etc.
