I'm searching for my great grandparents in Norway. Here's what I have.

Andres Olson Dahl, b. 1 Oct.1844 in Norway died 6 Aug. 1883 Dane county Wisconsin
He had a Brother John O. Dahl, also in Dane county in 1883
His will used the name Andrew, his headstone Andres
Mathilda Anderson Dahl born 28 Dec. 1847 in Norway died 21 Nov. 1910 in Columbia county Wi.
possibly immigrated 1854
They had 4 children, all born in Wi Anna S. b. 1877
Olaus A. b. 1879
Christian T. b 1881
Levi A. b. 1883
I can't find them anywhere before 1883. Any help would be greatly appreciated
Jim

Anders Olsen

Parents: Ole Christensen & Anna Larsdr

They live on farm Nedre Dalen in census-1865.

Book: Gards- og ættesoge for Luster kommune. B. 2 : Dale 1 sokn
Author: Lars E. Øyane
Published: 1986

The above mentioned farm history book has extended info about this family, too much to translate here.
Ole Christensen & Anna Larsdr had 11 children, and 6 of them emigrated to America; Eli, Britha, Torkild, Ole, Johannes & Anders.
Here's a screenshot from Johannes & Anders, but there are extended info about all children and parents.
