How old was he when he emigrated (per the emigration record)? Was he with an adult? |

Thanks for all. It will yake some time to put all together. But Ida had a brother Siegvart. He used the name Olsen at Norway census 1865. He may use this or Kikebo, as the later family did. He left Norway Ckristiania 6. July 1877, destnation Granite Falls N. Dakota on skip "Angelo"
Well, now that is a new date of emigration. Thanks for double-checking. Would you please post a link to the emigration record you are using? Thanks. |

That is the entry as it appears on "Family Search."
MINNESOTA DEATH RECORD as found on Family Search Name: George E. Olstad Gender: Male Death Date: 04 Feb 1924 Death Place: Minneapolis, Hennepin, Minnesota Age: 68 Birth Date: 1856 Marital Status: Married Spouse's Name: Mina A. Olstad Father's Name: Olstad Indexing Project (Batch) Number: B02484-3 System Origin: Minnesota-EASy GS Film number: 2218695 Reference ID: 17514
FOUND on Ancestry.com family tree: George Edvard Engebretsen Olstad married Mina Svensrud Kraabel
1900 US Census (posted previously) Minneapolis, Hennepin, Minnesota George Olstad 43 born Mar 1857 in Norway, to USA 1882 Minnie Olstad 41 born Dec 1858 in Norway Edna Olstad 12 George Olstad 10 Morris Olstad 8 Arnold Olstad 9/12

1930 Minneapolis Nina Olstad 71 widow Morris E Olstad 37
Clearly the family in USA believes this George is "your" George (because of the family trees posted on Ancestry.com) but I still cannot see the proof. Perhaps his origin in Norway is part of their oral family history.
