Halvorson / Halvorsen from Ness or Christiana, Norway. Her birth date is Sept 1859, per 1900 census, and she immigrated to the US in 1869, per the 1930. She married Watson R Cutsforth on 9 Nov 1884 in Bloomer, Chippewa, Wisconsin . She lived in Dovre, Barron, Wi in 1900 and New Auburn, Barron, Wi in 1905. On the 1900 census her name is Maria but looks like it could be Mearia. I do not have her death date nor any other information except her children with husband Watson Cutsforth.
This is my first time to work on a family tree with Norwegian roots and it has me pretty confused but I have a few ideas on who her parents might be but I'm just not sure. Thank you for any help you can give me!

If she was born 1859 and emigrated 1869, 10 years old, she must have travelled with someone, can you confirm the years and/or travelling companions?
