How can you tell that's Martha's brother? But I do believe it is because the Dhele name has been a mystery. On Einar's death certificate it lists mom's - Marth's maiden name as Delle.) I had also found an Edvard Olsen from Ellefsrudengen from Brandbu leaving Oslo To North Dakota on June 2, 1905. I always thought that was him.

I love that you send me the links to the baptisms- but how in the world can you read them? I would love to be able to read who was at the baptisms but I really struggle to make sense of them.

To all of you that are helping me- I want you to know how much it is appreciated. Have a blessed day!

Never knew about Jenny (she and Arnold and Norma) must be Edward's from a previous marriage. I did know of Erling, Martha and Glenn (not Jennie). Interesting!

Marthas brother Edvard was born in 1878, in the 1900 census he was a carpenter/timberman. The "emigrant" was also carpenter and born in 1878, his destination was Jawa, Marthas destination was Jowa. When the name is Edvard Olsen Dehle this is to distinguish him from other Edvard Olsens and Dehle is most likely a short for Delemoen which was the farm where his parents, and Marthas was in the 1865 census. So I am quite certain that it is Marthas brother.

Maybe Jennie died as a child? She is not listed in the 1930 census for Dunn county, North Dakota:
Edward J Hoel, b 1875
Marotha Hoel, b 1882
Earling J Hoel, b 1914
Marstha E Hoel, b 1916
Glenn E Hoel, b 1923

Jennie is born in 1919, so she must be the daughter of Martha Rognstad.
Arnold and Norma must be from Eds first marriage, but not Jennie (that is; if her age are correct in the 1920-census).

Do you know what "Orien" stands for?

Anyone in particular? - if you advice, it is possible to write them out for you, or confirm your proposals.

Wish I knew where Orien came from and also why Einar did not have his father's name as his last name?

Also, any ideas why Martha came over as "Rognstad" and then on Einar's death certificate it listed her maiden name as "Delle"?

Did any other siblings of Martha's come over?

As far as which baptism records I wanted, there aren't any in particular. I can read the one for Martha because I found it typed out on line. But I will give it some thought. Thank you

Did you write this
"Martha Olsdatter Rognstad (DOB-11/12/1881) born in Oppland, (Gran Parish) came over with her son Einar Orien Rognstad (DOB-1/30/1904) in 1908."
yourself or did it come from somewhere else?

I wrote that based on what I had found in my search. I found their passage over here to America and found Martha in the 1900 census. I only know about Einar from the family and also from what I found on his immigration. I have found no records for Einar's birth or baptism or his father or his father's family.
I've been messing around on line trying to see what I could fine and I happened to find this web page and am thrilled with all that you have helped me find.

Farmers daughter Ragna Olsdatter Molstadeiet left Gran and went to Kristiania (Oslo), most likely in 1899. See #13

Hi,

There are 505 people bearing the first name Orien in the Social Security Death index at Rootsweb, 1393 with the spelling of Orion.
Orion is from Greek /Roman mythology, he was a hunter accidentally killed by Diana and she made him into a constellation.

I've seen the name Ørjans become Anglicized to Eugene or Jens or just Orjans.

Hilsen,
Jackie M.
