According to the birth record I found Kirsti was born 28 Sep 1833 in Slidre, Oppland, Norway. Source information: Oppland county, Slidre, Lomen, Røn in Slidre, Parish register copy nr. 1 (1814-1838), Birth and baptism records 1833-1834, page 310-311.
I think she left for America in April 1857. The information in this record seems to match birth information.
Source information: Oppland county, Vestre Slidre, Parish register (official) nr. 2 (1856-1864), Migration records 1857, page 231.
I have a marriage record from the Scandinavia Lutheran Church in Scandinavia, Wisconsin dated 8 Oct 1856. She married Knud Halvorson Riste. Something isn't correct with these dates. I wonder if my record for her emigration is wrong. Can someone take a look at this for me? Thank you.

Kåre - look at this record. I think this is her birth.
Source information: Oppland county, Slidre, Lomen, Røn in Slidre, Parish register copy nr. 1 (1814-1838), Birth and baptism records 1833-1834, page 310-311.
My concern is that she emigrated according to the record in 1857 and the church record for marriage is 1856. I will try to get more information about the marriage from the church records. Maybe there is an error in those. Will also do more checking on her husband to see if I can find out if he was married before. Thanks for your replies. |

Just realized your post says she emigrated in 1856. I thought the record said 1857. Can you give me a link to the record that says 1856? If she did in 1856 she could have been married in Oct 1856 in Wisconsin. That might clear up my date problem. This is the record I found.

You have a sharp eye. You are right. Kirstie born on Kirkevolden in Lomen, Røn in Vestre-Slidre Sept. 28. 1833. Parents; Erik Bendiksen Kirkevolden and Ragnild Tidemandsdatter. Farmers. Right page #34
View of Lomen, see right side of the lake seen from Garberget .
Lomen Stave-church from ca mid. 1100 seen against the lake
The "tower" to the left called Støpulen/Stopulen is where the church-bell is placed.

Kåre - thank you very much. I see where I made a mistake in the year. I missed that the records were in chronological order from the previous pages for 1856. Now it all makes sense.
Yes Randi is a sibling but not sure of Ole. I have a sibling named Tideman who was born in 1840. Will do some searching about him.
The picture of the lake is beautiful. The church link did not work. Would love to see it if you can fix the link.
Thank you so much for the help on this.

Thanks to both of you. Another mystery cleared up for me. And the church is wonderful. Link worked fine. How awesome that a person can see a church built that long ago. |

The Stave churches and the Saga are the most important legazy from our common ancestors. Of ca 1000-1500 Stave churches only 28 remains. The first churches were mostly build on "Holy sites" the same places as in pagan times the Norwegians worshiped and sacrificed the pagan gods. When Norway was Christened these "temples" were demolished and replaced with churches. The oldest stave church Urnes build ca 1130 is on UNESCOs World Heritage.
C-14 datings tells that the oldest log in Urnes started to grow 765 AC and the youngest 1070, so parts of the church, espasially the northren wall was probably build ca 200 years before Norway was christened. - Norway and Iceland was the last in Europe to be christened.
