In the entry space far over to the right on the linked image, status is asked. If he had filed his Declaration of Intention (1st papers) the answer would be Pa = papers filed, if he had his 2nd papers he would actually be a naturalized US citizen and the entry would be Na= naturalized. Since it's al, it means he hasn't gone through the process to become a citizen. Naturalization records can be filed at many levels of government, federal court system as well as state court systems. As to why he was recorded as a citizen in 1892 but not in 1900 I could only speculate. The Italian Genealogical Website has New York marriages, deaths and some naturalization records. |

thank you for this information. When was she widowed and what does 'living of her wealth" mean. Is this Margarethe, Didriks mother, Henrikke Margarethe, or a daughter? i have the children names of Jens, Didrik, Fredrikke, Elisa, Georg.

She was rich enough (Rentenistinde) to support herselves.
The word Rentenist (he) and rentenistinde (she) do not exist today. A translation could also be "lives of the interest of the money, income from rental etc.)
I wonder if Didriks father died before 1898 when he was on a visit home. His mother Margaretha died between 1900-1910.
Bergen has many parish´s, take some time to read through, link
Did Didrik marry in the US?

Are they buried in a family site at a cemetery in Mollendal? And is Georg buried in Nynkirken? If they have a family grave would or should he be buried together? Is that customary for Norway?
Didrik married Gerda in NY and they are my great great grandparents. Didrik is buried in NY in a scandinavian cemetery in NY.

Lund 1886 1959 m Jens Gabriel Fredrik Lund´s familiegravsted Møllendal G00 02 01 View Møllendal Bergen
Not sure the ages match any of those in Didrik's family but possibly relatives because of the name repetition.
It appears the Georg Lund, Didrik's father died in 1893: http://www.digitalarkivet.no/cgi-win/webcens.exe?slag=visbase&sidenr=3&filnamn=doed1881&gardpostnr=1934&merk=1934#ovre
And his mother died in 1901: http://www.digitalarkivet.no/cgi-win/webcens.exe?slag=visbase&sidenr=11&filnamn=doed1881&medbilete=&sokpostnr=71#a0
Yes Didrik married in America.

Thank you all for all your help. I am doing my best to read and translate the Archives of Norway but some of the words don't translate.
Does anyone know what the word Lodsoldermand means?
I have been able to go back 5 generations in my family thanks to all of your help. I now have a new generation thanks to elbache.
I am very excited to take my information back to Norway and visit Bergen. I would love to find relatives too. |

Lodsolderman - devide in two words lods - seagoing pilot and olderman - a retired chieftain, or otherwise important member of the tribe that had retired due to old age. It has the advantage of retaining the knowledge of the old leader within a field, without challenging the new leader.
