| Fantastic! Those are indeed my great grandparents. I knew Jensine came over in 1882, and as I mentioned above, Fredrik was a goldsmith in Oslo, and this is reflected in the linked records. Thank you again - you guys are the best! |

This is excellent assistance, and I am just overwhelmed by it. I have learned so much, first by doing as much research on my own as I could until I discovered this site. The responsiveness is deeply appreciated!

| Sorry to say so but probably. The year is 1871, Kristiania is one of his known venues. Have you translated it? Looks like to me, 20 days in jail on bread and water for theft at age 19 or so. |

| Aha! Well, every family needs a "colorful" character, or two. It looks like we've found ours! |

Thank you; I really appreciate the additional information. You all have been so helpful to me and my family!
So the records clearly indicate that some of my mother's paternal ancestors faced a variety of hardships, and I can see why they were desirous of seeking a happier life. I only wish they could have found it in their native land. It's hard for me to imagine uprooting my family and moving to another country; to do so with few resources, spending a difficult 10 days at sea, arriving on another continent, speaking a different language, finding work, and a place to live... Their incentives to move must have been very strong.
So many immigrants say they wish for a better life, not just for themselves, but for their children. I'm happy to share that when Fredrik and Jensine moved to the US, their son Norman, my grandfather, went to public school and then attended and graduated from the prestigious Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). He had to work part-time, but he managed to graduate with a degree in chemistry. He was a chemical engineer during World War I, working for the Bureau of Mines, dealing with gases. After the war, he went on to work for the Armstrong company, and holds a patent for the chemical composition of manufactured floor tiles. Although he died as a young man, when my mother was only two years old, it inspired her to study chemistry in college, too. She went on to get her bachelors degree, and then a divinity degree in theology. She became one of the earliest ordained female ministers in the Presbyterian Church. |

| Eibache, could you provide a link to the record showing Hakon Hansen at Prinds? I looked in the 1875 census but did not see it there. Thank you! |
