I thought it best to make a new posting for this item. Peter Hogseth, born January 30, 1880. (I assume he was born in Norway.) He died, likely in Minnesota, USA, on February, 1964. His wife's name was Emilie. He had a daughter named Ragna Sylvie Hogseth, born in Minnesota 5/1/1909, died 3/27/2010. I need help in finding if Peter (likely Peder in Norway?) was indeed born in Norway, and his parents and grandparents on the Hogseth side. Specifically I am wondering if he might be a nephew of my grandfather, Martin P. Hogseth? Thanks much! |

By the immigration records, it shows Peder traveling with a Ruth Hogseth (spelled Hogset), arriving Boston MA, USA July 22, 1906. I assume she was his sister of Peder; can somebody help me verify if she was his sister and if she stayed permanently in the USA, or went back to Norway? I know Peder went to Minneapolis, Minnesota, but Ruth's trail is unknown. Thank you! |

Hi Jan Peter, Looking at your reply, there seems to be a contradiction between the information you provided on May 1, and the information on this May 14 posting. The May 1 posting listed Peder Johan Hogset, and there you mentioned he was a nephew of Martin Hogseth, and that he married Emilie Syverson in 1908 in Hennipin County, Minnesota, and further they had a daughter Ragna Salveig Hogseth. This information is correct, and it helped me find the daughter of Ragna, and I have since had phone calls and email exchanges with her. Unfortunately she knows very little of Hogseth family history; she had never heard of me or any of my siblings, parents, or grandparents until I called her. Further, the immigration ship log shows both Peder and Ruth coming from Elverum, Norway. As such, Peder could not have been married to Ruth, and lived with her in Massachusetts in 1910 and 1940, with him being in Minnesota all those years. It would seem that either there are two Peder Hogseth's or the records are wrong. Might there be another Norwegian census that would show the family with Johan Pedersen Hougset (aka Hogset, or Hogseth) with his children, of whom Pedr (Peter) would be one. One other son was named John. Perhaps a Ruth is listed there? I very much appreciate your help in this request. |

Going back to the first response, yes, there were 2 entries of migrants named Peder Hogseth given to you. Jan Peter gave you both along with other identifying information. It's not a conflict which he should resolve but part of what your genealogical analysis is about, figuring out who is the "right" one.
There is another census the 1891 which is browseable but doesn't yet have a search engine. It is found at the digitalarkivet site. Each person is on their own page, so you must let your fingers do the walking. Searches in it are therefore labor-intensive. |

Where did you get the birth information and then where did you get the death information?
Here is the baptismal record for the Massachusetts Peder, #23: Source information: Hedmark county, Elverum, Parish register (official) nr. 13 (1880-1890), Birth and baptism records 1880, page 3. Permanent pagelink: http://www.arkivverket.no/URN:kb_read?idx_kildeid=6047&idx_id=6047&uid=ny&idx_side=-6
The Peder in Massachusetts was in the old man draft registration in the early 1940s and he gives his birth date as 30 Jan 1880.
The Peder Hogseth in the SSDI that died in 1964 was the Massachusetts Peder:
18.Peter Hogseth Born: 1880 Died: 1964 State of last residence: Massachusetts State issued: Massachusetts |

I appreciate the feedback, and I have received some supporting info from a relative. I talked with Peter's great-granddaughter in the past day, and she had some old family notes that said Peter was born September 14, 1985, and died August 18, 1960. But she really knew nothing of Peter's heritage or his Norway-based family, other than sketchy information. I doubt the accuracy of her noted 1885 birth year. That she gave me the September 14 date was huge, in that the same month and day jkmarler just provided adds credibility. Also, I know Ole Pedersen was a brother of Martin Hogseth (my grandfather), so I believe the info is now accurate. Thank you all! --Steve |

I have further reviewed all this information, and while I initially found the information rather confusing, I now believe that BOTH Johan Pedersen Hogseth and his brother Ole Pedersen Hogseth may each have had sons named Peder. Johan's son Peder born Jan 30, 1880 and Ole's son, Peder born Sept 14, 1883. It looks as though the elder Peder was already married (to Ruth) and immigrated to Massachussetts June 22, 1906 and the younger Peder immigrated in 1905, settling in Minnesota. With the two Peder Hogseth's can somebody help me confirm that BOTH had fathers Johan and Ole Hogseth, both from Elverum? It seems that might be the case?? Thanks much! --Steve |

Yes. There are two similar Peter Hogseths - Massachusetts Peter (1880-1964) and Minnesota Peter (1883-1960). Yours is Minnesota Peter.
Both Peters are born in Elverum.
Massachusetts Peter's parents are Johan Pederson Hougset and Marte as stated above.
Minnesota Peter's parents are Ole Pederson Hougset and Berte Olsdatr. (if I read the record correctly)
If the fathers (Ole and Johan) are brothers was not discussed.
A confusion came from the wrong opening data. Good example of why each fact should have a source attached.
Some more just for the heck of it....

Yes, this gets confusing. My whole search started by looking for a Ragna Hogseth, as she and my father (Walter) knew each other in their younger years. The search for her was a success, as I have recently talked with her daughter. We both go back to Peder Johnsen Hogseth (b.1821) and his wife Marte Olds (b.1822). They had seven children: Johan, Jens, Ole, Peder, Martin (my grandfather), Juline and Amelia. I am not sure of the WWI records, but since his father was Ole, the name Peter Olson Hogseth seems logical. The one in Massachussetts may also be related to me in the very same lineage. I am quite certain the Minnesota married Emilie Syverson. The Massachussetts Peder is a new discovery for me, and now I believe he might be equally related. So while the one in Minnesota might be "mine," the one in Massachussetts might also be "mine." |

True. I guessed it might be so. There is a Hans Hogseth born 1879 in Norway in Saint Paul, Ramsey, Minnesota - wife Emma. See census records and MnHs and Find a Grave. Access many relevant records on Family Search. |

I added the information from the World War I draft registration, above - Peter Olson Hogseth in Minneapolis was born 14 September 1883, so the correct Peter was identified in Norway by the marvelous Norway researchers. :D
