If either of you can check on Ancestry.com, I am attempting to input the Casper Family tree. Please check and see if I have most of the pertinent info. Let me know.

Her d.o.b. according to the 1910-census is 14 Sep 1860.

The daughter of Johannes Guttormsen & Elen Johannesdatter, Balkeløkken, Vestre Aker, Oslo, Norway:
Julie Sofie Guttormsen b. 14 September 1860

This must be sister Anna Emelie Guttormsen b. 20 January 1867:
Census-1900
Census-1910 D.o.b. = 20 Jan 1867.
The chr. record of daughter Margit Andersen confirms Anna's last name as Guttormsen.
