What does it say here?
It's from a record of the Montreal, Quebec arrival of Gustav Adolphe on June 16th, 1866.

I think you're right about Mathiasen... then I'm not sure if it's him.
I thought for a while that it said Halvorsen Brand...

...the age fits pretty close. It must be him.
Could you look at this #46 #46and can you tell me the name that is written. Is it Gudliek? Have you seen this name before and do you know where it comes from?
Also the Farm Name of the mother...I have seen it as Hovde and it looks like here it is Hovdae? Why are the spellings different?

| Can anyone see the Berg Family in the Hemsedal Bydgebok? How many of the children besides Ole Berg immigrated to America? |

Hi Erik,
The ones mentioned in the Hemsedals slekthistorie page 367 are:
Eivind Helgeson b. 1816 together with his wife
Eivind's twin Kari Helgesdatter together with her husband Erik Bakke
Ola Helgeson and his wife Kari Mekkelsdatter
Your link on #46 didn't work for me. Høvda is the name of two places in Hemsedal, one under Grøndale and the other under Torset. Høvdae probably dialectical rendition.
Hope this helps.

Hi Erik,
#1 in 1851 looks to me to be: ungkarl Even Helgeson Berg son of H. Helgeson and piga Anne Torgersdatter Haugen daughter of T. Thomassen.
Have you seen the new book The History of Urness Township: 135 Years of Rural Community Life (Douglas County, Minnesota) by Suzanne Nelson & others ? Verrrry interesting.

Hi Jackie, Yes I have heard of that book. In fact I have been corresponding with a distant relative of mine that contributed to that book!
I have been learning that I have many relatives in Urness Township and Douglas County.
A new fact has been presented to me by my distant relative. The subject of this thread, Margit, had an uncle named Torstein, who had a daughter named Anne Torsteinsdatter Vollo. She married Helge, a son of Arne Helgesen Berg and Sunnev Knutsdatter. Arne was a brother to Ole H. Berg who married Margit's sister, Kari Mikkelsdatter Fauske.
I am about going crazy trying to keep all the relationships in order. You were right, the Hemsedal family trees and tangled!
The reason I asked you to look at the last link is according to some information from another distant relative, Even (Eivind) married Anne Krokji....but according to the link her farm name was Haugen.
Do you see anything to show if they moved farms? |

Not sure if Larry Hill's Genealogy Site have been mentioned here before...?
Eivind Berg & Anne Krokji are mentioned under #24 Helge Helgesen Berg (1786-1864) & his wife Ambjorg Eivindsdtr Hovdae (1788-1871).
Krokji could be dialect for "Kroken", is there a farm called that in the area?

Hi Jan Peter, yes I had mentionned it and I have been corresponding with him a little bit, trying to help him fill in the gaps on the Fauske-Teigen family.... he has done alot of work and it was done in the days before the internet I believe.
Larry's work is the source I was using for Krokji......but I'm not sure where he got that name.......I don't know if there is a Kroken farm in Hemsedal. |

The headland in the upper left corner (marked with a red dot on the map below) is called Kroken.
In Norwegian, "Kroken" can be translated into "The bend". Notice the bend of the river Hemsil at that point.
This area is only 600 meters from the Fauske-Teigen farm.
I would assume that the Krokji farm was located on this headland.
