Anna Harvsgaard Hans H. Ekland emigrated 1889?

Legg inn av gj07258 » 04 jul 2008 13:16:35

Hello,
I am trying to find out any information I can on where my great grandparents came from here in Norway.
I believe they emigrated to the United States in the late 1880's.
My great grandfathers name may have been changed to Ekland at that time.
We believe that my great grandmothers maiden name was Harvsgaard.
Any help you could give us would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Alan Ekland

Hello Marit,
How can I ever thank you! This is wonderful.
I am still going through everything but just knowing where they were from and what his last name is was hugely helpful.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
