Knud Gamst Figenschou

Legg inn av 20841 » 24 okt 2008 01:54:26

Hei

Har lenge forsøkt å lete etter hvor Knut Gamst Figenschou ble av.

Han, hans kone Anne Thomasdatter og de to døtrene; Magdalene Hansine 2 år og Anne Martha 1/2 år melder utflytting til Amerika fra Lyngen, Troms 3. april 1862:
http://www.arkivverket.no/URN:kb_read?i ... _side=-249

Har ikke klart å finne overfarten deres, men fant denne som jeg lurer på kan være Knud som har vært hjemme på besøk:
http://digitalarkivet.uib.no/cgi-win/we ... 92004#ovre
Alderen stemmer i allefall, og bustad er oppgitt Gran Forks North Dakota.

Har forsøkt å søke på sider for Nord-Dakota, uten resultat :roll:

Knud's bror, Andor Figenschou ser også ut til å ha emigrert, ved å ha meldt utflytting fra Lyngen, Troms 28.april 1864 til Amerika:
http://www.arkivverket.no/URN:kb_read?i ... _side=-251
Finner ikke han heller i emigrantlistene..

Håper noen kan hjelpe meg videre :wink:

Hilsen Trine Lise
Den som ikke spør, får heller ikke svar..

THEODORE JOHNSON.
Theodore Johnson, a well-known citizen of Waukon township, Norman
county, where he carries on extended farming operations on his fine farm
and where he is prominently connected with civic, social and co-operative
business affairs, was born in Norway, September 25, 1857, a son of Jens
and Bertha Johnson, both of whom were natives of Norway, where they
grew up and married. In 1872 the family came to America and located at
Eau Claire, Wisconsin, where the father was in business as a tailor, having
Page 2
learned this trade in his native land. After he had been thus engaged for
some years, he left Eau Claire for Dunn county, Wisconsin, where he bought
a farm on which he lived until his death. Some time after the death of the
father, the mother removed to Norman county, where she made her home
with the subject of this sketch until her death occurred. They were the par-
ents of three children, namely: Theodore, the subject of this review; Gunda,
who is still living in Barron county, Wisconsin, and Godfred, deceased.
Theodore Johnson received some formal education, but the greater part
was acquired during his residence with his parents in Wisconsin. He remained
with them until 1879, in which year he drove overland to Norman county,
in company with fver Martinson, the journey requiring about twenty-one
days. Immediately on his arrival here, he pre-empted the southwest quarter
of section 28, Waukon township, but two years later he sold his right. Dur-
ing the interval, he went back and forth from his holding to Wisconsin, and
spent some time in North Dakota. Later he bought a tree-claim right to his
present farm, which he proved up as a homestead, and here he has contin-
ued to live. When he first came to his present farm, the land was raw prairie
with no improvements of any kind, but now after years of patient industry,
he has a set of fine farm buildings around which is growing a beautiful grove.
Here on his holding he carries on a general type of farming and breeds
Holstein cattle, Poland China hogs and Buff Leghorn chickens.
On July 22d, 1885, Mr. Johnson married Tena Figenskau, who was
born in Pierce county, Wisconsin, April 30, 1864, a daughter of Knut and
Anna (Thompson) Figenskau, and to this union five children have been
born, as follow : Jane, Alice, Freda, Clarence, Alpha, all of whom are liv-
ing.
Mr. and Mrs. Johnson are members of the Lutheran church, in the
affairs of which they take a proper interest. In politics, the former is an
ardent advocate of Republican principles, and his voice is well-known in the
councils of his party. A very striking thing about the career of Mr. John-
son is his activity in all the common affairs of the community. For years
he has been an important township official, for he has at different times been
township assessor, which office he holds at present, and was township chair-
man for twenty-five years, which office he relinquished in 1916. His long
service to the civil interests of the public shows that he discharged the dut-
ies of his office with strict fidelity and honesty. The co-operative business inter-
ests of the community bear a strong impress of his personality. He helped
to organize the creamery at Waukon, of which enterprise he was secretary
and manager during the first five years of its existence. He was also instru-
mental in the establishment of the Gary Telephone Company and was a mem-
Page 3
ber of the board of directors, which position he occupied for many years.
For the past twenty years he has been an auctioneer, crying sales all over
this and adjoining counties, which occupation has widened and enriched his
field of acquaintances. Finally, it may be said that if any movement is inaug-
urated in the community for its betterment, socially, economicallv and civil-
ly, it is sure of the unstinted and loyal support of Theodore Johnson.

Thank you so much to Hanne Line and Margit :!: :!:

I have searched for so long, and all this in just one day... Impressive :!:
Because I found the birth of their daughter in 1862, I did not search for their emigration for this year.. They shore had a lot of courage to travel so far with a two year old and an infant :!:

His brother, Andor, was christened January 7. 1837:
http://www.arkivverket.no/URN:kb_read?i ... _side=-164
Maybe he changed his name to Andrew :?:

Marie is not a sister of Knud and Andor(that I know about). But maybe a relative :?: I will try to look for it.

Maybe I'll come back with more questions afterwords, this was a lot of information.

Margit, I'll be greatful if you can help me get in contact with living relatives :wink:

I really appreciate the time and effort you both have done on this research :!:

All the best, Trine Lise

Hei Trine Lise !
Interessant at du også er interessert i Knut Gamst Figenschou, eller Figenskau som hans etterkommere nå skriver navnet i Minnesota.
Knut var min bestefars onkel. Knut ble født og lærte seg å gå på den samme tomta som jeg har oppført mitt kontorbygg på ved E-6 like nedenfor kommunesenteret Hatteng i Storfjord kommune. Da han var 9-10 år flyttet familien noen hundre meter lengre sør, siden hans far Jens Christian fikk kjøpe mesteparten av arealene her i bunnen av Lyngenfjorden sammen med broren Knud Gamst (! KG i USA var altså oppkallt etter sin onkel på Lyngseidet).
Min oldefar Nils var KG's eldste bror, og overtok farseiendommen. Han døde i 1900, da KG var her en tur. KG utsatte heimreisen til han hadde overvært begravelsen. Jeg så at du hadde fått opplysninger om reisedokumentene..
Vi hadde tapt all kontakt med slekten "over there" inntil jeg arbeidet ett år i et oljeselskap i Houston, Texas 1984-85. Da fikk jeg kontakt med 110 slektninger, og Robert (Bob) Figenskau kom over på besøk høsten 1985. Jeg dro på gjenvisitt i 1993. Da fant jeg banken KG's sønn Jens eide i OSLO, Mn.
Jeg fant også broren Andors grav i St.Paul. Jeg besøkte også etterkommere av både KG og Andor, og har i dag god kontakt med flere av etterkommerne; utrolig hyggelige mennesker som man nesten straks følte en tilhørighet med...
Jeg har mye mere å fortelle, om du vil kan du ta kontakt med meg på E-postadresse: post@geotex.no. Beste hilsener Geir Figenschau.
