Trying to track down members of this family. Kristian b.1825 Eidsvoll, Olea b.1824.

Apparently records before 1877 are hard to come by because of a church fire.

Looked at death records for Bunæs where we believe they originated:

http://digitalarkivet.uib.no/cgi-win/webcens.exe?slag=visbase&sidenr=47&filnamn=eidsvoll&medbilete=&sokpostnr=1#a0

There is some census information from 1865 and 1875:

I wonder whether the Johannes Jenssen (b. abt. 1829) on the 1865 census is a brother to Kristian.

http://digitalarkivet.no/cgi-win/webcens.exe?slag=visbase&filnamn=f70237&personpostnr=3014&merk=3014

Karl is also seen in this census from 1910:

Julie was married (and we believe had a child (perhaps Olga) with Unknown Pettersen who died before she had Hjordis, with Jens (b.2 Feb 1853 Nordre Braadal, Gjerdrum, Akershus, Norway) Hansen Smedstad before leaving to the USA and marrying John Rodvold around 1905.

Julie's confirmation record 21 Oct 1877:

Her emmigration to the USA in 1905:

http://digitalarkivet.uib.no/cgi-win/webcens.exe?slag=visbase&sidenr=13&filnamn=emikra1&gardpostnr=154565&merk=154565#ovre

Anton (b.abt 1855, Karl (b.30 Aug 1860), Olaf (b. 8 Apr 1864) and Anne K (b.25 Sep 1869) are Julie's siblings. I have little information going forward about them.

- since they together were the owners of Bunæs in 1865 it is reasnable to think they were brothers.

Kristian Jenssen b.1825 Eidsvoll, Olea Kristensdatter b.1824. Focusing on their daughter Julie Kristiansdatter Bunæs.

New information: Julie's baptismal record from 1862, Langset in Eidsvoll. I need help reading the information in the box on the right hand page.

http://www.arkivverket.no/URN:kb_read?idx_kildeid=2923&idx_id=2923&uid=ny&idx_side=-12

Updated details from a previous post:

Julie was married and we believe had other children named Olga/Inga, Mathilde and Theresa with Unknown Pettersen (who may also have had these children with another wife/partner). He died before she had Hjordis, with Jens (b.2 Feb 1853 Nordre Braadal, Gjerdrum, Akershus, Norway) Hansen Smedstad before leaving to the USA and marrying John Rodvold around 1905.

Julie's confirmation record 21 Oct 1877:

Her emigration to the USA in 1905:
