...both born in Aurdal in Valdres in 1872. They were married in Ulnes church in Aurdal June 28th, 1901, and left their homeplace for America in April 1904. They had a paper from the minister, who wrote this on April 7, 1904. I think they ended up in North Dakota some time - I am interested in getting to know when they left Norway and from where in Norway. Where did they settle, did they have any children, and when did they die?
