Good Lord, looks like an entire family came over here. It shows as America was their destination. Any idea what ship they came on or what port they landed in? |

I believe they all travelled across the sea from Bergen - Quebec, Canada.
That was the most common route prior to 1865. But not many passenger lists from that period are kept, so it might be difficult to find the ship Knud (March 1851), Ole (March 1851) and Erik (April 1857) came over on.
Their parents came over on the ship Galathea in 1865.
I believe these are Erik's parents and brother Knud in census-1870 for Houston, Houston co, Minnesota:
Eriak Erickson, b 1793, Norway (Erik Levordsen)
Rachel Erickson, b 1800, Norway (Ragnhild Knudsdr)
Knud Erickson, b 1827, Norway
I don't have access to the original records, so I can't tell if they are in the same household. But I guess the parents are living close to Knud, since they have "inherited" his last name.

Wow, You guys are awesome. Everyone else on Ancestry.com have that Erik Olsen and Eli Paulsdatter. Same family line as mine but their information must be off.

Brenna / Brænna is a farm in Nordre Aurdal, Oppland. The region is called Valdres. It is not where he was born. The christening record names his father as "Erik Levordsen Riste", so Riste farm in Svennes, Nordre Aurdal, Oppland is most likely where he was born. But the topics I linked to above says they moved around, so Brenna must be a place where they lived.
In addition to Riste and Brenna, this family has also lived on a farm called Næss/Næs (Naess), also in Nordre Aurdal, Oppland.
Yes, it's of course 1834.

| Is it possible to get a birth record of Erik Levord and Raghilld Knudsdatter. They were the parents of Erick Erickson and Ole Erickson. |

Thanks Jan-
You've been a huge help. I just found out that these guy also emigrated to the United States. Looks like they lived in Minnesota for a brief while then passed away. Trying to locate their grave site now. Thank you again Jan for all your help.

Just found out?? 
I told you they came over with the ship Galathea in 1865, and settled in Houston, MN. Probably near their son Knud Erickson, b 1827.
