| Very cool! So it would appear that Bottolf and Kari died between 1875 and 1880, as they are no longer living with Erik Brekke in the 1880 Census? |

Perhaps, Bottolf did die before the 1880 Census, but most trees on Ancestry have Kari not dead until 1890. This is likely her in the 1880 Census living with her son Erlend and his rather large family;

BIRTH 1825 • Brekke, Aurland, Sogn og Fjordane, Norway
DEATH 1906 • Brekke, Aurland, Sogn og Fjordane, Norway
Who is also a son of Botlov and Kari; thus nephew of Erik and Erlend;

| Thanks for that! And on that note, I’d like to find out a little bit more of Ole Sjursen Brekke, a son of the Sjur Botolvsen Brekke aforementioned. I believe this is him leaving Norway: https://www.digitalarkivet.no/en/view/8/pe00000000666824. His age is very close, and although he is not from Lærdal, it is pretty close to Aurland. Looking for help on his emigration and immigration if possible. |
