I'm looking for more information on my 3rd great grandfather. As far as I am aware he was born on Dec 24, 1808. He married Johanne Margrethe Christiansdatter in 1857. He had at leas one son with her, Jens (James) Christian Larsen 1860-1934. There are possibly an additional 4 sons: Anton, Samuel, Anton, and Johan. I have records of Erik's parents, but they do not match his birth year. I have no information past birth for any of the other 4 possible sons.

Post the birthdates of all the children. Do you know where in Norway these folks come from or is that part of the mystery to be solved?

ellenlarsen325, you might want to check your user history to find information that was developed previously for you. (to do so, click on your username) It could be that for whatever reason you missed seeing it at the time.
