Hi,
I posted on "Norge - ukjent fylke", but would like to post this here also. I am looking for emigration records or the Norwegian home of:
Andrea Rosendahl, born 23 June 1844 in Norway. She died in Washburn, Bayfield Co., Wisconsin on 15 Oct 1899. Her death record gives this exact date of birth and says her father was Martin Rosendahl.
Andrea was in Wisconsin before 1875 and married John Anderson Strom (from Sweden) there. I don't know if Andrea came alone or with her parents. Andrea and John were in Washburn, Wisconsin by 1888. Washburn was not founded until 1883, so the first children were born in a different town in Wisconsin.
I have NOT been able to find the family in the 1880 census:
John Andersen Strom, born ca. 1840 in Sweden
Andrea (Rosendahl) Strom, wife, born 23 Jun 1844 in Norway
Amanda Elisa Strom, daughter, born April 1876 in Wisconsin
Frank M. Strom, son, born 27 May 1877 in Wisconsin
Other children were born after 1880, I do have the family in the 1895 and 1900 census in Washburn, Wisconsin.
I would be very grateful for any information on where Andrea Rosendahl was from in Norway, or the date of her emigration.
Mvh,
Brian

Re: Andrea Rosendahl
Hei Gunhild, Ann og Margit,
Thanks for trying to help!
Yes, this is all the information I have. Washburn, Wisconsin was founded in 1883. All the children were born in Wisconsin, but I don't know where they were in 1880. They were definately in Wisconsin, but I can't find them anywhere in the 1880 census. I found the family in Washburn in the 1895 Wisconsin census, but that only lists the head of the family, not the wife or children (just "7 males and 2 females", "6 born US - 3 born Scandanavia").
I have tried searching the 1800 census with the children's names also (Amanda and Frank), but no luck. Birth records for the children list the mother as "Andrea Rosendahl". The death record for Andrea Strom lists her father as "Martin Rosendahl", and gives Andreas's date of birth as 23 June 1844. Andrea died in 1899, so was not listed in the 1900 census.
I know this isn't much to go on, but I can't seem to find any more information. I was hoping the 1865 Norwegian census would show something. I'll keep searching!
