Hello, I am part of the berg lineage and I want to learn more about our past. My great great grandfather is Carl berg and he was married to Otilie Berg. I was wondering someone could help and also if there are anymore family left over there? |

Yes that’s them! I don’t really know much past my great grandfather Olof berg. I met most of my grandpas siblings, is there any more bergs in Norway? I just know that they moved to North Dakota but that’s about it. |

Baptism record for Carl, He was born April 6, 1883. I did notice that the emigration record had the year 1882, but did have the day and month correct.
Nr. 55

Here is Carl (Karl) with his parents and siblings in the 1891 Census. His fathers last name is spelled Embretsen in this record. Spelling can be somewhat variable in Norwegian records.

The marriage record gives the father of the bride and groom. Based on that, this is likely the baptism of the mother of Carl,
Dina Bergersen in the Norway, Select Baptisms, 1634-1927 Name: Dina Bergersen Gender: Female Birth Date: 4 feb 1847 Baptism Date: 7 mar 1847 Baptism Place: Sor Odal,Hedmark,Norway Father: Berger Bergersen Mother: Eli Andersdr FHL Film Number: 124378

Based on the same marriage record. This is likely the baptism record for the father of Carl, Martin Engebretsen. The parish is listed as Strom, Which is a sub-parish of the main parish Sør-Ordal. In this case the last name is spelled Ingebretsen for Martin by the Transcriber., but should have been spelled Engebretsen after the name of the father Engebret.
Martin Ingebretsen in the Norway, Select Baptisms, 1634-1927 Name: Martin Ingebretsen Gender: Male Birth Date: 4 nov 1854 Baptism Date: 26 nov 1854 Baptism Place: Strom,Hedmark,Norway Father: Engebret Olsen Mother: Anne Bergersdr FHL Film Number: 307236
Nr. 221

Usually when you trace a family this far back in time, you can find a Family Tree online that will take you even further back. The issue is of course is how accurate is the tree. Here is one on Familysearch. Familysearch is a free site but you do have to register to use it.
The site looks fairly accurate and it does have some sources.

The site does have your ancestor Berger Bergersen. But start with the parents Beger Jonsen Jonsrud and Dorte Mikkelsdatter and work back in time.
