THANK YOU ALL!!! This gives me some really great leads and I so appreciate all your help. This changing of names does make it confusing and now easy.

Probably the best site for english speaking Norwegian Genealogy. You can learn a lot by looking over all of the information contained on this site.

This might be your Maren leaving Norway, also in 1872. She would have been only 15 at the time, quite brave. See #1500.

The family story is that Maren was at orphan at age 15 so she decided to emigrate to the US as she had I think 3 brothers already there. One was Ole and he was a captain out of Milwaukee. Nils Kopperud had come over about the same time and was working for Ole. She worked at various homes in Milwaukee and then at 17 married Nils to "get away from hard work." I would expect the hard work had only begun as they had 8 children and farmed the rest of their lives in South Dakota.

This may not be absolutely accurate as in the 1880 census of Dakota Territory, Kingsbury County, Nels A Kopperud is listed as the "son-in-law" and Mary Hanson is listed as the "daughter" of Hans Olson age 62 and his wife Anna Olson age 52. There is also another daughter named Anna Hanson age 21.

You could very well be right. I know family stories often have just a grain truth to them at best. Thanks for pointing that out to me!

Nils Kopperud´s brother Karl Andersen Kopperud b. 1861 bought Kopperud from the parents before 1900.
At the same time the sale was coducted Anders Nilsen and Maren Andersdatter secured themselves a legal right on free suppplies and lodging on Kopperud as long as they lived, called "Føderaad" regardless of who owned the farm.

Kopperud 1900, Karl Andersen as farmowner, a servant maid Helene and both parents with "Føderaad"

Karl Andersen Kopperud married the servant girl Helene Oct. 2. 1902, sold the farm and em. to Wisc. with Helene and a little son Artur Olai from Oslo July 1903, Link

Kopperud 1910.

I can't begin to thank you all enough. I am going to digest all this and and no doubt will have questions to ask. Seriously, I can't thank all of you enough. I would never have been able to put all this together with my limited knowledge of Norwegian and my new attempts to find genealogical clues. If you find more information, keep it coming! I am going to share this with my 92 year-old aunt (Nils and Mary were her grandparents) and I know she will be very excited and thrilled to know more about them. Tak, Tak Tusand Tak!
