Karl Martinius Olsen, born July 1852 in Oslo

Legg inn av gj05515 » 20 mai 2011 15:39:14

Hello,

I am helping a friend with her research. I am looking for a birth, confirmation or emigration record for this person:

Karl Martinius Olsen

The 1900 census for Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, says he was born July 1852. The
1910 and 1920 census records also show a birth about 1852.

He left Oslo for America about 1880. He was not married whern he left Norway.

Mvh,

Brian

Hi Brian,

Do you know his occupation? There is one candidate from Oslo who left Oslo in 1880:

10.09.1880 Carl Marthinius Ols. Berg Guldsmed m 24 Kristiania Boston Fr. Lie Angelo 114 10 Fripas

He was a goldsmith, and should have been born in 1856. It might be wrong.

H Kjersti,

Thank you very much for your reply. Karl Martinius Olsen was a "Snedker" in America.

In America he married Olivia Olsdatter Mostrøm (1880 in Philadelphia). Olivia came back to Norway in 1893 to visit her father in Oslo. She was pregnant when she came and had a baby, Jenny, in Oslo. Karl did not come with her, but stayed in America. Here is a link to the birth record, it shows Karl as the father. It lists his date of birth as 1857, but al three census records in the US say 1852.

A very good question, thank you Vivi! I am checking the possibility that Maybe Karl was born somewhere else and then moved to Oslo. I will see if I can find what became of this Karl later in life. Thank for your help.

Brian
