i am noticing the name Fischer many times between the families. Were they related ? Georg father is J.G.Fischer Lund and Henrikke father is Didrik N. Fischer too. Do you have dates of births for any of the parents? And was it common to marry in this church? Was it the only church?

How exciting you were able to go back even further. I am sure it helps you can read the language.

i never thought there were records this far back for my family.

I know this sounds silly but I mentioned in an earlier post that there was a story passed down to my grandmother by Didrik that his family was nobility, and that they were not allowed to talk about it. Was there actual Norwegian nobility, as I thought Sweden was in control of Norway during the 1800's. Can anyone explain.

I have been working on this for years. Every once in a while I take a break because it is so overwhelming and reading and trying to translate makes me crazy. Thanks for all you help. It has been a passion of mine to do this, so good things take time.

Take your time, you are welcome back if you have any questions.
It´s always difficult to understand a new language even if it is your ancestor´s language.
Every time you read through the information you will understand it better
I guess without having studied it that familynames like Fischer, Schram and perhaps Lorentzen goes fare back.
I suppose that the forefathers to this families in Norway probably immigrated in the 1600 or 1700s from Germany or Denmark.

I made a mistake: Georg Lunds parents Jens Gabriel Fredrik Lund and Maren Elisabeth Lorentsen did not marry in Bergen Cathedral 1829 but in Stavanger Cathedral

You haven't asked about Gerda's heritage, perhaps you already have this information. Here she is leaving Norway to come to America:

http://digitalarkivet.uib.no/cgi-win/webcens.exe?slag=visbase&sidenr=16&filnamn=EMITROND&gardpostnr=61033&merk=61033#ovre


And at Ellis Island site there is a Johanne Rakstang 48 a widow and a Karen Rakstang age 15 going to New York to a daughter whose name is rendered as Gusta/Gerda Lind:

Gerda Oline Rakstang's confirmation #40, birthdate 2 Oct 1872 Kristiansund, parents Carl Oluf Rakstang and Johanne f Sannæs:
Source information: Sør-Trøndelag county, Vår Frue kirke in Trondheim, Parish register (official) nr. 602A17 (1880-1901), Confirmation records 1888, page 171.

The parents and his siblings in 1801.

Mon. - short for "Monsieur" = "Mister" among upper class people.

looking at the list of relatives I noticed Anna has another name of Brink. Is that considered a middle name? Also I am assuming this is the census for 1801. How do you know who was living in the household? I assume that it ends with Maria Macoddi. And that name Macoddi, do you know where that name originates from? It doesnt sound Norwegian.

If this is true she was from the island Guernsey in the British channel, see here

#4338219 Maria Macoddi, age 23, unmarried, in the same 1801 census is her sister.

"1801" is the 1801 census.
All the people listed as children of Jørgen Gabrielsen Lund and his wife Sussanna Macoddi are part of the houshold, i.e.:
438211 - 438217, in addition 438218 - 438221 are part of the houshould as relatives and servants.
The baptismal record for Ane Susanna seems to indicate that Brinch is added to her given name. See last record on left page.

Yes. I just found this too. And on this website there is even more family, distant cousins and such. How interesting. I wonder how she got from Gurnsey to Norway and why. Thanks again!!
