emigrated in 1860. I think they married in 1874. My question is: What was Ingebor's surname (familyname) and from what part of Norway did she com???

My limited resources have not found any information about Ingebor, but I have found census data for their son Elmer. He can be found in the 1900,1910, 1920 and 1930 census. Do you need any heritage info about Elmer and his wife Ellen and their children Agnes and Kenneth?

Thank you Lester for you answerd.
I have the information about Elmer and Ellen and their children and grandchildren. In March we are going to wisit one of their
grandchild in Seattle. Therefore I hoped to find the familyname
of Ingebor and her roots in Norway till then.
Best wishes from

Hei Anders
Do you have anything more, name on her mother, father, sisters or brothers? Do you have some suspicion from where in Norway? Any farm names, any thing.
Kåre in Norway

Hi Kaare
That is my problem, I only know her christen name Ingeborn nothing about her family. I know that she emigrated in 1866 then she was 20 yaer and she married Ole Jerdie around 1874 because Elmer was born in 1875. My gues is that they married in Cambridge, Dane, Wisconsin. Sorry, but that is all I know about Ingebor.

They should be in this 1852-1907 Wisconsin vital records database but Ole was probably not going by Jerdie/Jerdee at the time of their marriage but by his patronomyic which began with a K according to the 1900 and 1910 census in Dane County under the name Jerdee. He died right after the 1910 census in Madison where he was living with his daughter Ida and another daughter and her husband, George Hughes:

Since you know Ingebor's exact death date has anyone secured her death certificate and obituary? The Dane County Historical Society is very active, they may be able to help you.

Someone has Ole Jerdee in a Rootsweb.com family tree online but does not have anything other than census information.

We do not have all the great information online here that you have in Norway.

There is a Ole K Gerde marriage record for 07 Jan. 1873, available from Dane County, Wisconsin. Volume 03, page 0073. Someone may be able to look this up for you.
Digitalarkivet has listings for Gjærde. Seems like a natural spelling for Jerdie. Jerdie does not seem to be a common name for Norway.

It's too bad the marriage record Lester found did not have a spouse link but that sure seems like it is the right Ole.
In the 1900 census, they were living in Deerfield, Dane County, WI.
You might want to email the Deerfield Public Library to see if they have an obituary resource, you have the death dates. Even though Ole most likely died in Madison, he may have had a local Deerfield obit. The smaller the town the more likely a person would have an obituary:

You can also check with the main Madison Public Library, just go on Google for the link. |

Is it possible Ole used the farm name Gjærde when he immigrated, and dropped his patronym name which starts with K. I don't know how to use Digitalarkivet good enought to check this out. Seems like it would help, if we knew where Ole came from in Norway.

Hi Lester and the other clever people
I think, with good help, we have found Ingebor's roots in Norway.
It looks like that she is comming from Voss and the name is Ingebor Endresdatter, but in Amarica she call herself
Ingeborg Andersen. "So easy to understand".
That maks this hobby so fasineighting (or what you call it?)

Kåre, this would agree with the 1910 USA Census, where Ole K has emigrated in 1868, instead of 1860 as referenced by A. Wangen. And the Gjerde farm name is a perfect match for his last name, as written in the USA.

Kåre and Lester. Yes I think it is the same Ole, because his mother Anna Trondsdatter Grong died i 1853 and his father Knut
Ivarson commited suicide in 1858 and they lived at that time in Gjerde, Strandebarm. His brother andsisters was to young to take care.
I have got this message from some other people. Thanks again, I now think I am on the "right train".

Andreas, Looks like you finalized your last discussion. Hope you got everything you wanted. Let me now go a step away.to a potential new issue. This may be stretching it as I see no common thread except for your farm name.
I don't know how many V/W angen farms are in Norway, but I wonder if you are of Aurland in S&F. This is my root area. Various farms there including Vangen, Vinjum, As, Kvam, Onstad, Hoidal, Gjerlov etc. Who knows? We could have some common blood!
What say you? |
