I always assumed it was for Iowans with Norwegian roots but my brother has decided to use it for anyone from Iowa including himself.

I grew up in Iowa City. Moved to SW MO in 1996 and on to Australia in 1998 only to return to SW MO last Sept.

I found the confirmation between Charles Iver Smith and Kristopher Iversen (Sandstad). Christopher Sanstad on the Bothnia arrival 30 Apr 1892. He says on his Naturalization papers that he arrived on or around 5 May 1892 aboard the Bothnia. (And that he left Norway on or about 18 Apr 1892, which fits with the above mentioned record of him leaving Buvik in Apr 1892). I was worried that everything seemed to fit but with this I am pretty confident that we have our man!

So many thanks to all of you who have helped me with this. I never expected such a quick and fulfilling response.

Please tell me what is said here in regards to Peder Madsen see near bottom on right page

Pedar Madsen is the father of Christopher Andreas Pedersen and this should be something regarding Christopher's birth/baptism as he was born in 1806. I am hoping to find his mother's name as well.

TIA

When you've studied and used the instructions and been able to find a scanned page on the Digitalarkivet that you'd like to capture as a URL to share with someone else or save for your family history documentation - just copying the URL that your browser shows will NOT provide a working link for longer than about 1/2 an hour -- it only works very temporarily.

Working direct links to the scanned images on the Digitalarkivet can be copied and pasted from the desired page from a display option available. At the top of the scanned image page is an option labeled "Bildeinformasjon:" [Norwegian version]/"Image Information"[English version] which is by default set to "Ingen" [Norwegian version]/"None" [English version]. Change that and magic is available. Of the three options I like "Øverst" [Norwegian version]/"On top" [English version] because it puts the additional information across the top of the page and is usually easier for me to see.

The first line "Kildeinformasjon:" [Norwegian version]/"Source information" [English version] is a really nice summary of the source of the information and is wonderful to have for making detailed source citations, footnotes, etc.

The second line "Permanent sidelenke:" [Norwegian version]/"Permanent pagelink" [English version] is the best line to capture if you want to save the exact URL location or share the actual scanned image and the source information. It allows the full capabilities for zooming in and out to best view the image and informs the recipient of the exact location, book and other details to be able to find WHERE you found the information.

The third line "Permanent bildelenke:" [Norwegian version]/"Permanent imagelink" [English version] is the best used to print a copy of the image or to save a copy of the image in a jpg format computer file. This line does NOT also capture the source information and therefore is NOT the best line to copy to share online when requesting help or assistance in deciphering the image found.

Good information about translating the formats of Norwegian parish church records during various time periods, many of the basic terms used and understanding how to use the information should be studied at this web site -

I am so glad I made this mistake so you could correct me! I was making this mistake in my sourcing. So thank you for the concise explanation.

here is the permanent pagelink for the image

http://www.arkivverket.no/URN:kb_read?idx_kildeid=16723&idx_id=16723&uid=ny&idx_side=-282

to be precise the entry I am looking at is on the right page and second from bottom. Has Peder Madssen there.

Also I just noticed this while going back and editing my mistakes in sourcing.... Valborg Stephensdotter's baptism record has Peder Madssen's name mentioned. Am I correct and does it indicate why... here is the perm pagelink:

http://www.arkivverket.no/URN:kb_read?idx_kildeid=16723&idx_id=16723&uid=ny&idx_side=-245

entry located middle of left page.

Hi, thank you Jackie... I assume you mean for the second link to the 1799 baptism of Valborg.. Can you tell me if that is Hanna Neilsdotter is also mentioned there. Could that be Peder's wife?

can you also tell where they are from, is it Eidet?

This record is from April 24 1806 when the priest made a visit (Sognebud) to Peder Madsen, Lokøstrand.

This record shows the baptism of Valborg on May 4 1799 where Peder Madsen, Eidet was one of the witnesses (fadder).

These are two different persons. In 1801 there were 3 Peder Madsen in Bø, Nordland.

thank you. Yes I see that they must be two different people because of the location. I am pretty sure the Eidet one is probably the father of Christtopher Andreas Pedersen b. abt 1806, he marries Valborg.

Christopher Andreas, son of Peder Madsen, Eidet and wife Hanna Nilsdatter (their 10th child) was baptized Oct 4 1806, born Sept 24.

I believe their marriage record is #6.

Christophers parents and siblings in 1801.

Peder was a widower and they had exemption, given in a letter of June 16 from bailiff Gunner Berg, to get married since they were related.

Johanna Margrethe was Peders child from his marriage to Annechen Johansdatter, 2nd record on right page.
Peder and Annechen were married May 21 1780, see
10th line left page.
