You may want to find others who were on the same voyage of the Anna Delius as your ancestors to find if they had preserved any on the sea and after journey stories.

| I am still learning how to post replies to this forum...so to all who have not received a "thank you" from me (many of my replies ended up blank!), I thank you now for taking the time to respond to my topic and I hope you will continue to keep me in mind if you have any new suggestions. All of your suggestions have been helpful. I recently published a book (historical fiction, but based on research) on my maternal Norwegian ancestors' journey from both Arnafjord Nes and from the Numeral valley in 1841 and 1842, and now I am working on the story of my paternal Norwegian ancestors' journey from Torpa, Oppland in 1866. |

My 2nd grt grandfather also came over on the Anna Delius, and on this same voyage. For some reason he traveled using his brother's name, Marthinus Skartlien. He was from the Skartlien farm in Nordre Land, Oppland. I think he went to Black Earth, Wisconsin first, and afterwards moved down to Chicago. His name was Andreas Syversen Skartlien, and was born July 17th, 1835, so same age as Christopher Hanson. I wonder if they knew each other? Karen, was Aamathilla a farm name?
They might very well have known each other. My great grandfather Christian's farm name was Skredderstuen, and it was probably part of a larger Aamt farm. |
