I would like help with translating a marriage record found in arkivverket. It is from Trefoldighet Parish, 1892-1923, dissenters marriage. Page 114, list number 26. Date of marriage September 7 1912.
The bride's name is Emma Olsen and groom is Franz Xaver Arnoldi.[ From Germany?]

My ancestor, Johan Jakob Andersen, born 6-5-1841 in Sweden, went with his family to Norway in 1887. I found the record below that looks like he applied for Norwegian citizenship in 1913.

Thanks for the tip. I went through all the pages of Oslo Domkirke / Vår Frelsers menighet and even though I have not found Laura Charlotte Andersson’s (born 1-13-1846 in Sweden) death record, I did find a lot of records for my other ancestors! Of course, I am hoping I can get help with translations ...

Thanks for responding so quickly to my post.

If I understand your answer then could this family have some connection to Hamre, Hordaland?

Thanks you so much for finding Haagen Evensen and Kari Torgersdtr's marriage record!
I had to look up Amot and I see that after marriage the couple must have headed north to Alvdal to have their son Torger in 1808. No wonder I could not find them.

Hi,

I went through my notes and I had found this census record, but not knowing Malene’s mother’s name, I could not be positive.
But, if we have the correct baptismal record and if Malene’s mother’s name is Sigri Andersdtr then this might be it.
With that said, I did find the following record ...

Thanks for the reply.

Could be Malene's baptism. The year of birth matches (1799) with her age cited on marriage record. But, if it is, she is not listed on the Tynset 1801 census. I am using Malene for search and there are only a few 2 year olds listed. I am really stumped on this one. Maybe her ...
