This couple married in 1865.
I have a lead that they emmigrated in 1867, but I cannot find their emmigration listing in either digital archive for Oslo.
Is there a chance they came another route other than Oslo?
Thanks, Joe. |

Where in Norway did they live before emigrating? There were a large number of possible departure ports.
Names can be spelled in a variety of different ways and there are always people who slipped through the recordkeeping net... |

What birth years for each?
They were married when they left.
What other names might they have used? farm names? father's patronymic?
What was Kristoffer's occupation?
Where they did settle in US? (I found Syverine emigrating because of the "Bode" connection - so sometimes destination can be important.)

| The Oslo/Kristiania emigration protocol doesn't even start until May of 1867 and very few entries are there for that year -- only 24. |

the marriage record is #4, Christopher (25) was from Larsstuen.
They left Nordre Land Aug 11 1867, see #56 & 57 where it says
"56 Christopher Olsen, Larsstuen f. 1840 do (Amerika)
57 hans Kone Inger Hansdtr. f. 1842 do med Manden"

You probably know that Christopher Olsen was born July 18 1840, his bapt record is #140 and his parents on Larstuen in 1865.
The bapt record for Inger, who was born on Sørlien April 13 1842, is #85.

| So, why isn't the data in the digital archive? Or, do you think it was mistranslated? |

| What data are you looking for now when you ask why it is not in the digital archive? |

Joe, If you are thinking that their names may have been missed or 'mistranslated' by the persons creating the databases from the original handwritten emigration lists for Oslo/Kristiania you can look through copies of those original handwritten lists yourself. They can be ordered on LDS microfilm through any LDS Family History Center.
The police lists of emigrants leaving from Oslo/Kristiania didn't even start until May of 1867 so personally I don't find it surprising that they are not listed. |

No, I mean that in they are denoted (#56 & 57 above comment) with the picture of the book, but when using the search engine against the db, the entries do not appear.
I was curious to know why - have not all records been put into the db yet or ? |

Digitalarkivet have both searchable material and just scanned material.
You should read the available info.
Scanned material related to #56 & 57 above have been given to you, see "You probably know that Christopher Olsen was born July 18 1840, his bapt record is #140 and his parents on Larstuen in 1865.
The bapt record for Inger, who was born on Sørlien April 13 1842, is #85." above.

Hi,
Genealogical records are constantly being perfected...
The number and breadth of records Norway has made available in this fashion to all of us is incredible.
Roughly, the equivalent in U.S. terms would be that the entire run of every single state's birth, marriage and death records would be available. The record here is spotty at best, but Norway's is comprehensive. And you are not happy?
Hilsen,
Jackie M.

ohhhhh, nooo - don't get me wrong -- I'm very pleased that there are so many nice records !
And, I very much appreciate all the nice help folks on this board having given me!!!!!
I just want to understand what the limitations are and why for my future sleuthing efforts, that's all.
I'm not criticizing, but just wanting to fully understand.
Joe. |
