By the way. His destination in 1914 was "Henley, Sask." The ticket was prepaid in "Amerika" which suggests he had family or friends i Henley already.

Brother: Engel Eriksen (born 1888 at Fosnes)went to newyork, usa in 1909, as Engel Meier Lerbak
Sister: Valborg Eriksdatter (born 1890 at Fosnes)

| This is a reply from Norway. The Leirbekk family is growing in Norway, and most of them are still living in the Namsos area in the middle of Norway. There is also a farm on a small island outside Namsos carrying the familyname Leirbekk. In Norway there has been written a book which include the Leirbekk family in Norway an USA (Canada). I am probably your second cousin an live in Oslo Norway. I hope this information could help you a litle bit. |
