Hi !
I am searching for parents for Agnes Augusta Olsson born 1889-08-30 in Norway. I talked to relatives and they say she was born on a boat between Norway and Sweden, but they are not sure. She lived in Vermland, Sweden until she died . I have searched for information in the church books in Vermland, Sweden but it says only born in Norway.
Is there anyone who have any information about her or any ideas how i should go on ? Is there any place i can call in Norway to get information ?
Best Regards
Terje, Sweden.

Hallo, Terje.

You doesn't say from when she lived in Varmland, so I've searched the 1900 cencus for Norway. Unfortunately there's no Agnes Augusta born in 1889. There are several Agnes', though. This one does have a "reason" for moving to Sweden - her parents are Swedish.

It's just a suggestion, but...

GOOD LUCK!

Too early in the morning. The opening of the previous reply should of course read "You don't"...

Hi Terje, This might be a good candidate in the 1900 census for Oslo. The birth year is correct and the fathers name is Aug. maybe August and with Agnes' middle name being Augusta it could fit. Line #86975
