My great grandparents are both from Skotselv, Eiker, Buskerud. They met and married in the US in 1884, shortly after they arrived. Andrew Soren Paulsen b 11 Feb 1863 Anna Kristen Lee (Lie/Lid Farm) b. 30 Mar 1861
Andrew's parents: Father: Soren Paulsen (1825-1880) born in Eiker Mother: Ingebord Christensdatter (1828-1897) born in Eiker
Anna's parents: Hans Helgesen Lie (1818-??) born in Norway Mother: Ragnild Johannesdatter Bakke (1832-??) born in Norway
Looking if there are still any living relatives of these families.
Thank you so much. |

That is sometimes a difficult task to find relatives living in Norway today. But you can see by the 1865 Census that Anna Kristen has some siblings so there is always a chance that some members of this family are still living in Norway.

You are welcome Hopefully we can find out what happened to the Lid family after 1900 and also bring up more info from the Sĝrensen family this weekend. The bap. records in Norway has a 80 year limit for protection of peoples privacy.
