Severin Petersen Gidskemo i USA

Legg inn av 23582 » 16 apr 2008 11:27:22

Severin Martin Petersen Giskemo, born in Ørskog, Møre og Romsdal 11. july 1874, emigrated to Michigan from Ålesund 23. feb 1893, Cunard line, and written as Severin P Gidskemo, 18 yrs, unmarried, farmers son.

His father was Peter Elias Ellingsen Giskemo and mother Karen Martinusdatter Jordskar. I have heard that Peter Elias Ellingsen Giskemo for a short time was in USA too, but I cannot find him as an emigrant from Ålesund. He came back and took over the farm Giskemo in Ørskog.

What happened to his son Severin in US?

Thanks Margit! It's him.. Do you think we can find him in any census in Michigan? Did he get a family - when dead etc....

I should guess he became a Petersen in US?

Hi Roger,
I tried many spellings and combinations of dates names etc and I do not find him any place. He does not appear to be in the SSDI or the WWI records database.

Thank you for trying! It can often be difficult to have an idea of what name they used. My great grandmother emigrated to Isle, Mille Lacs, MN, 55 yrs old. Her name was Ragnhild Jonsdatter Randen, but in US she used her son's (left back in Norway) middle name and called herself Ragnhild Nelson!!! Who could guess? But I found her (and a lot of new familymembers) and have visited her grave...
