Kristen Johansen Langvigen, f. 12. april 1868

Legg inn av dn17217 » 02 mar 2010 23:01:02

Kristen Johansen Langvigen, b. 12. April 1868 at Geitastrand, Sør-Trøndelag, Norway.
Geitastrandboka says that he emigrated in 1889 to USA, but he is not mentioned in the Police departments' records as an emigrant.
I have found at Ancestry.com, census of 1920, one Kristen J. Johansen, b. abt. 1865 in Norway. He is living at Wrangell, Alasca, single. Immigration 1891.
I suspect these info are not exact enough to be the right person we are searching.
Who can help me?

Hilsen
Olav

Olav,
I would suspect you need to find him leaving Norway, before we can look in America. :(

Good to hear from you again, Margit.
Yesterday I found him at the >Police records:
He had changed his first name to Chresten.
57661 CHRESTEN JOHANS. lp.nr. 1135, reg, dato 01.05.1889, 21 years, bustad: Børsen, reisemål: Ishpeming, Mi, ship: Cameo.
His brother, Eric Gisvold, b. 1866, was at this time living in Ishpeming with his pregnant wife Oline.
I have no more info on Christen.

Hei Olav!
I have tried many searches on this man and do not find anything. It would be simple if he used a farm name I would think. What are his parents names?
I am finally back online with email, but still very busy editing also. My fun time is to help others. :D
