Berthe Endredatter emigrated in 1889 out of Liverpool, destination Clarkfield,Minnesota. Her last record in Norway that I was able to locate listed her as Brita Endresdatter Uglaenes.
I cannot locate her family and am looking for names of siblings and whether or not they also emigrated. I have her father listed as ENDRE ENDRESEN and her mother as UNK DRIVENES.
Any help out there?

Emigration from Bergen 1874-1930:
1882 Mar 15 Haakon Johan Endresen (Uglenęs) (17)
1889 Apr 26 Brita Endresdat Uglenęs (23)
1891 May 26 Endre Endresen Uglenęs (22)

They come from the farm Uglenęs in Fitje parish, Hordaland

I believe this is your Berthe Endredatter:

Brithe, christening: 18 MAR 1866 Fitjar, Hordaland, Norway
Parents: Endre Haakansen & Guri Johannesdr

This looks to be them in census-1865. Her father is Endre Haagensen/Haakansen, not Endre Endresen.

The Brithe in the census could be an older sister, but I believe it's your Brithe with wrong age..

Haagen looks to be the same as Haakon Johan emigrating in 1882, and Endre emigrating in 1891 is another brother of her, christened on 29 MAR 1869

Thanks ever so much. Wow. This is my gr-grandmother and family. I'm guessing the reason family records had her mother's name as Drivaenes is because they came from that area. This could also mean that when Thorkeld Madsen (gr-grandfather) moved to Bekkervik and became town fiddler that the Drivaenes listed just below his name in the digitalarkive is a cousin.
