I am looking for any information on Christian Halverson. He was born on Dec 31, 1872 in Norway. He arrived in the U.S. around 1905. He later married Olena Halversen in Wisconsin. His siblings were: Leva, Sigurd, Omar, Hulda, Casper, Gretchel, Einar, Peter, Robert and Rachel. I am looking for his birth place and any infomation on his parents. Again, thank you in advance for any assistance you may be.

How is that you know the names of all of his siblings but not his parents?

Do you mean these are the names of his children?

or perhaps this Kristian is more likely as his father's name was Halvor...thus the "Halvorsen"...but his birthdate was off....

Kristian born December 29, 1872 (#32)

Hi Jan Peter,

Is the 1875 census for Aurskog lost? or is it part of another Parish at this time? I had thought we might be able to find Kristian and his parents in the 1875 census?.........
