Again, thank you, Jan Peter! I appreciate the information about Stina Sorensen. My family and I may have to stay at the Holmenkollen Park Hotel when we come to Norway in a year or two, knowing that a relative once worked there.

I am blown away by your kindness and expertise. I am running out of words to express my gratitude. I may need to grab a thesaurus.

Both Martin and Maren Sofie were living in Rodeløkken when they got married.
(Zoom in by clicking on the map when you have moved the +-marker to coordinates between 7 - 8 and F - G.)
You should then see Sofienberg Kirkegaard and Paulus K(irke) - later named Sofienberg Kirke.

Marthin, his parents and siblings in 1865.

Note that his mother has a wrong name, she was Hansdatter (not Haagensdatter).
See marriage record #14.

When Hans Kristian was born, the parents were living in Stockholmsgata 19 - unfortunately the house does not exist any more. You can see the street in Rodeløkken on the old map.

Einar, thank you so much for the maps and links! It's pretty cool to be able to see where my great-great-grandparents lived, even if the building isn't there anymore. And I see that the area next to the church is called Sofienberg kirkegaard, which is more evidence that the church was referred to as the Sofienberg church by many people, even though it was officially named something else.

One question about the marriage record you so kindly linked: what do you think the fathers' names are? I am having difficulties trying to read them. Obviously their first names are Niels and Hans, given the children's surnames, but what do you think the father's surnames are?

Mange takk!

Christian Nielsens father was Nils Christiansen, Sanderudengen.
Birthe Hansdatters father (and mother) already given by Kåre.

Christian Nielsen was born Jan 4 1814, see top record right page. The mother was Margrethe Madsdatter.

Nils Christiansen, Norbye and Margrethe Madsdatter, Qwernhamer were married July 4 1804, see top record on left page.

Hi!

In Fet Bygdebok Vol 3. p 105 I can read the following:
(Somewhat abbreviated)
Cottagers in Flaen from around 1825 HANS OLSEN, Haugen u Nerdrum 1793-1867 married ÅSE JAKOBSD. (1786-1858) Myra u Kjustad in 1818.
Children:
Ole 1819-1819
Marte Maria 1820-83, married Peder Arnesen, had children
Your Berte b. 1824 married Kristian Nilsen and moved to Nordby u Råsåk.
Johanne 1828-1828

Probably more on this family in the "Bygdebok".

Once again, I am speechless at the skill and generosity of the chat board participants! Mange takk for all the info - we started with an obituary in 1928 and have gone all the way back to 1751. Far beyond my expectations!

Janrm, thanks for the info from the Fet Bygdebok. I know certain libraries in the US have collections of bygdeboker, and I will see if I can get my hands on that particular one over here.
