Has Bio?: Y
"Marit's parents were Ole Andersen and Marit Jonsdatter Herdahl
Marit married Esten Embretsen Aas 15 Apr 1831 Vingelen Hedmark Norway.
Children:
1. Ingeborg b. 13 Jun 1832 Vingelen Hedmark Norway

Esten, Marit and their four children immigrated to America in 1851 along with Marit's nephew Baard Johnsen Herdahl who is also buried at Elstad.
Elstad church records, p. 216 #20, Marit Olsdatter born 20/8 1798 at -- died 13/2 61 buried 26/4 61 at Elstad."
Based on the above it is likely that Esten Ingebrechtsen and wife Marit and possibly children first lived in Iowa County Wisconsin before ending up in Fillmore County, Minnesota.

Ingebret Estensen was a witness at the baptism of Lage Johnson and Petronelle Estensdatter's daughter in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Dodgeville, Wisconsin in 1855. The ideal find now would be a note in the same parish book some years later, announcing that Ingebret left for Australia.

Mrs. Lage Johnson's obituary was all of 3 lines and did not mention any survivors by name.
But Chatfield democrat. Pub. Date Saturday, November 12, 1864 on page 3 , col 3 has an article listing all the men drafted and from Amherst is listed an Albert Estenson.
No ages in the 1865 census:

| Lyndal40: Appreciate all your work and the other N-H members. When I track down just how and when GGF Albert left USA for Melbourne, then Clunes, Shepparton and finally Mont Malcolm - I will send a post to this forum. I plan to visit Tolga on 25 May and then, thanks to your research, taxi to Vingelen. There the Museum director has offered to open up the church (on Saturday!) for a short visit. My wife and I will attend a service there next day (or at Tolga), unless they have closed the church. Kimberly Smith |

Nice work pinning that down. I confess I am amazed that you can read that name at # 60. I did notice that on one of the baptism records you posted there was a Dordi Estensen as one of the witnesses for the original on the ELCA record for Johan Oscar Estenson. This is likely the Ancestry transcription for her baptism.
Dordi Estensen
in the Norway, Select Baptisms, 1634-1927
Name: Dordi Estensen
Gender: Female
Birth Date: 1 mar 1852
Baptism Date: 25 apr 1852
Baptism Place: , Vingelen, Hedmark, Norway
Father: Esten Estensen
Mother: Ane Ingebretsdr

| Wow, you guys are amazing! I come from the sister Peternille, and am one of the descendants that currently reside in Alberta, Canada. I had been hitting a wall tracking down Esten Embretsen's parents, but the farm book that ToreL posted was an amazing source of information! |
