Can someone help me find som information about Strom family from Norway in early 1900. I`m searching for Carl Julius Strom with family. Carl J strom was born in 1859 i Sarpsborg Norway. He was married Karen Dorthea Ovilia and around 1905 he went to Amerika. What happend to the family??
That topic ended with the information that Carl's father was born in Sweden. However the family of Karen and her three children are listed as being from Norway on the ships manifest for their trip to America.
In that earlier topic I posted the Census information for Charles and Kate Strom. One problem with this family is that there are four children born in Norway not three. Another family from the 1910 US Census is Charles and Kam (looking at the orginal census form the name is better read as Karn D). The names of the childrren are somewhat different but there are only three.
