The twin was listed in the birth/baptism record in the church books -
http://www.arkivverket.no/URN:kb_read?idx_kildeid=5896&idx_id=5896&uid=ny&idx_side=-52

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 -

Ok so just trying to connect the dots, Below is the emmigration record for Svein:

Outmigrating in 1883 for America, #1 on right hand side:
Source information: Buskerud county, Nore in Nore, Parish register (official) nr. II 1 (1878-1886), Emigration records 1883, page 134.
Permanent pagelink: http://www.arkivverket.no/URN:kb_read?idx_kildeid=4190&idx_id=4190&uid=ny&idx_side=-102

American census record record him immigrating in 1883 so this matches. I can not read Norwegian so can someone translate this and tell me if the information provided state where he immigrated? What port? Does it list the if Svein stated what state of America he was going to immigrate too? Thank you all for your help, you are clearing up a mystery for me.

Hi,

Going with eibache's interpretation of the father's name for Iver Sveinson and my read of the farm name Slaata in the same entry, Svend Ivarsen must be the one born in 1796 (and also found on Slaata in the 1801 census)

Folk og Fortid i Hol, VII pages 379 and 666 cover Svend. No illegitimate children are mentioned in the parts about Svend but says he was married twice, first time to Johanne Jensdtr (1810-1833) and it is thought that they lived in Laerdal, Johanne's home, for a time after they married. Their first son Ivar Sveinson was born in Laerdal in 1829. Svein married a second time to Tørand Jonsdatter (born 1799) in 1835.

So depending on when the marriage to Johanne took place, this Svend could have been an ungkarl on 1 Jan 1828, No date of death for Svend is given.

OK, jkmarler, are we talking about the father of Ivar Svendsen (Father of Svend Iverson) that was born out of wedlock? (Svend grandfather??)

Kåarto- this one is new to me. Svend Iverson had left a son in Norway when he immigrated.

Thanks Jackie. What are the odds that this Svend Iverson the immigrant is really the guy that lived in Cottenwood, County, Minnesota? Any there any direct link between these two besides the information I provided? Passport, Immigration or Naturalization papers, anything?

To satisfy yourself, you could
1."Redo" the searches in the 1865 census and see if you get the same results.

2. Look at any of the other 3 Svends I came up with and see if they have any other circumstances similar to the known facts on your Svend (twinship, leaving date, etc) & followup

3. Make a table of the known characteristics/facts of your Svend and then vette each other possible checking off if they matchand see which one most closely matches your info.

4. Scrupulously collect every piece of information & document on Svend's life here. (This you should be doing anyway but most people think they have it all and they almost never do!) Who were Svend's friends, were there other people who might have been named as relatives, such as in his obituary? Did he join a bygdelag (regional heritage group) here (there is a Numedalslag which would cover Nore) or a Sons of Norway chapter which might have records on him. Who were the godparents at his children's baptisms? Sometimes they are friends from the old country or relatives. The church record of his marriage might also be a place where a biographical detail might connect him to the right Svend in Norway.

5. Follow up on Svend's mother--did she marry again and have additional children? Are there other aunts, uncles and cousins in Norway? If so there might be letters and such from Svend preserved on their side of the pond,

You asked which record might contain the "missing link"--it might not be just one but all sorts of invisible strands which bind him to his family. If you don't look for them you will not find them.

Good Luck to you.

I am actually curious if we can connect the Svend Iverson, The immigrant to the one in Minnesota. Can we translate the record from the parish of his Immigration Feb of 1883. Does it list where he was going? etc. If I can do that, then I can be for sure that this is the correct Svend Iverson.

Please look at the record and compare to this translation. Amerika is all that it says. As for the other note about Svend leaving a son, I await Kåre's explanation about it.

Hi,

Please look at this link. The last name is questionable but this may be your Svend heading to Lamberton, Minnesota:

http://digitalarkivet.uib.no/cgi-win/webcens.exe?slag=visbase&filnamn=emikra1

info seems to have disappeared so am copying in here:

Hi,
the information that Svend left a son in Norway comes from this site from 2004.
Kongsberg is a town ab. 100 Km south from Nore.
