Hello - seeing recent upgrades to the Digitalarkivet I hope someone may locate my grandmother in the 1900 CENSUS. She was born 12 Dec 1871 on her grandparents' farm at Aase, Hordaland. Father John Christiansen. Family moved when she was 4 to a farm at Nedre Myksvoll, nearby. 1 brother, 4 sisters. Confirmed at Lygre church, near Myksvoll. Found - probably - in the 1891 census, by NH Forum experts, as "Andrea Jansen", servant at 33 Hans Holmboesgade, Bergen. 17 Sep 1907 she married my grandfather in the Nykirken, Bergen, and emigrated to USA.
I have searched the 1900 CENSUS for various versions of her first and last names, various versions of "Myksvoll", of Aase, Hamre parish, Lindaas parish...no likely result. Any help appreciated.

An Andrina Tepsted born in 1870 living in Bergen.

Link

And a different data base

Link

Tepstad is a farm in Hamre parish Hordaland

However there is a Andrina Johnsdtter Tepsstad born in 1869 in the 1891 Census. Father is a John Olsen Tepstad. So this might not be the person your interested in.

So this is likely this Andrina Johnsdatter.

This might be the fourth 5th time at bat for the missing 20 years of Andrina.
Have you looked at the National Library site? It has newspapers (aviser) from all over Norway and the newest thing is city directories (adressebog) You might want to take a swing:

http://www.norwayheritage.com/snitz/pop_printer_friendly.asp?TOPIC_ID=5447

In one of the earlier topics it was mentioned as a fleeting possibility that Andrina had come to America before her marriage and then went back to Norway, and that she had relatives in Minnesota.
Here is the address for the Minnesota Digital Newspaper Hub and when I searched for "Andrina" it found 140 references, might be worth a look, particularly if you know where her relatives lived in Minnesota:

Thank you, I will visit the National Library site. Regarding emigration: it is true that Andrine's 2 uncles, 1 aunt, paternal grandparents all came to the USA in the 1870s, and many first cousins had been born here by the 1890s. That part of the family is well-documented in a publication...no mention of Andrine as unmarried immigrant. I have found most of these relatives in the 1900 USA census, did not find her in these entries. All these emigrant relatives, plus Andrine's 2 younger sisters who emigrated, appear in the Norway record for emigrants from Bergen...but Andrine does not appear there until Sep 1907.
I conclude that, most likely, her 1900 records are among that minority of Norwegian records that have been lost/misplaced.
