| I am trying to trace the ancestry of Severin Cecil Johnson/Johanson. B-1869 and D-1934 (in Kalgoorlie Australia) He married a Louisa Vivian in Broken Hill Australia.Hi ancestry is related to danish or Norwegian royals because my mother, Gladys Davey (nee Johnson) received a $40AUD inheritance from the royal family. |

You might want to delete the two extra topics you posted on this same person.
Obituary from The Trove via Elephind.com Western Argus (Kalgoorlie) Tuesday, 18 Dec 1934, pg 15 col1 ( Family Notices)

Hospital Kalgoorlie, on Decem
ber 11,.1934, Severin Johnson, of

Mrs. Terry, Mr.. and .Mrs. Ren-
frey, Mr. and Mrs. Christie, Mr.

Have you got Severin's death certificate, marriage records and birth records for each of his children?
Cecil is not a common name in Norway, what is the source for that name and the detail that he was born in Norway? |

Well for what its worth a Family Tree on Ancestry has this person. No sources in the tree for any of the many Norwegian family it has listed.
Severin Johnson
1868–1934
BIRTH 30/09/1868 • Egersund, Rogaland, Norway
DEATH 11/12/1934 • East Coolgardie, Western Australi
This is likely the family in the 1865 Census.
http://www.rhd.uit.no/folketellinger/ftliste_e.aspx?ft=1865&knr=1116&kenr=001&bnr=0013&lnr=000
The year is wrong in the Tree as this is likely the person they are referring to.

Well this pops up so the Tree may not be as far fetched as I first assumed.
Severin Johnson
in the Victoria, Australia, Index to Naturalisation Certificates, 1851-1928
Name: Severin Johnson
Age: 21
Birth Year: abt 1869
Certificate Date: 30 Jun 1890
Naturalisation Place: Victoria, Australia
Native Place: Egersund, Norway
The original document lists his Occupation as Seaman and Address as Footscray or Foolscray?
Certificate Number: 5069
Probably this place from Wikipedia
Footscray is a suburb (neighbourhood) 5 km west of Melbourne, Australia.

| The baptismal entry for Severin has an X or a + by his name, which might mean that he is expired or something else... |

Severin b 1869 in Eigersund, Rogalund
Confirmation
https://digitalarkivet.arkivverket.no/gen/vis/279/pk00000000724806
Do you have a cover letter that accompanied the money? Consider investigating who the money came from.
We don't know yet if the Ancestry.com tree is correct, but it might be. The family tree creator has identified a no doubt wonderful - but not royal - Norwegian family as Severin's family. They lived on Midbrød in Eigersund, Rogaland. Usually a family tree creator is a descendant, and if so would be a cousin of yours.
Kalgoorlie cemetery lists him as Severin Johnson (no "Cecil") link |

Interesting that there is an attest dated 1875 on his confirmation transcription:
{Attest:} V 1875-06-17 |

The attestation in the confirmation record relates to the date he was vacinated.

Good work!
Geni tree for Severin: link
No "Cecil" in his name in the tree.. seemingly that may have been a mistake? |

| The geni.com Severin also has a different estimated birthyear. It would be best for someone to connect the dots in Australia between the Severin in the naturalization record to the Severin who dies in 1934, otherwise there are numerous others in Norway to explore. |

I do not have a letter or certificate or receipt for the inheritance. Gladys Davey and siblings were all tall blue eyes and her children also. I have even searched wills etc but not a thing comes up |
