Some guidelines for obtaining Naturalization records from Kings County, New York. You may want to work with the LDS to help locate the proper county to look for his records.
Kings county has at least 5 Christian Olsen's that could be the right one.
This is a search for Christ Olsen.

The LDS Family History Center has now microfilmed almost all of the naturlizations. After you find your record in the index, click here to find the microfilm in which the record is located.

I think we are getting closer to when Krisotffer left.
[limegreen]http://digitalarkivet.uib.no/cgi-win/webcens.exe[/limegreen] Sorry, the above link doesn't work. Under emranters from Kristiania there is a Kristian Ols. Fodstadeie, departing 30 March 1906, age 20, on the Montebello, which went to Hull, England. His destination is given as Boston.
Sorry, the above Kristian Ols. is not the right person. I found one that seems to match the dates for emigrating, that left Liverpool on the SS Ivernia, arriving in Boston 12 April 1906. This Kristian was going to Minnesota to see his brother Ole Olsen.

In the World War I Draft Registration Cards, I found a Chris Christerson b 10 Dec 1887 Norway, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It shows his birthplace as Transberg, Norway and that he is a Seaman with the Navy, with the SS WM Rockfellow......When I looked at his signature, it really looks like Krist Kristofferson....Maybe? |
