I'm looking for the death records and cause of death for brothers Paul and Ingvald Anderson Sorum from Gran, Norway. Both are buried in the Sorum kirke Cemetery in Gran, Norway. Paul was born Sept 16, 1868 and died Jul 12, 1926. Ingvald was born Apr. 23, 1866. Date of death is unknown.
Thank you for any info you can find.

| I've not been able to locate a boat record of his return or death records for him in Norway. According to info passed down through the family as well as a photo with his brothers in Norway, he did return to Norway. Cemetery info from the website above mentioned does not indicate he is buried in Sorum. |

You will most likely not find any boat record of his return, such records are very rare. What US census have you found him in? 1900? 1910? 1920?
If in Norway at the time, he should be in census-1900 or 1910, which are complete. The 1910-census even has an own field for "returned emigrants from America". |
