[dn04942]

På vegne av en amerikaner som søker etter norske røtter, legger jeg ut dette:

How can I find out more information about our family in Norway? Grandpa came to the United States from Norway at age 16. The following is most of what we know about Grandpa John:

American Name: John Hebnes
Name in Norway Johaness Haugen
Born: at Jelse, Norway of the Hebnes county or area near Stavanger, Norway
Birth Date: March 29, 1892.



Came to America: They left Norway in 1908 on the Empress of Ireland. They made it to Sault St. Marie on May 11, 1908.

Half Brother: He also came here with his half brother Johan Bjornevoag, who was 3 years older.

Great grandpa was 89 on June 16, 1956

Had a letter from a sister: July 27, 1956
Her Name: Thea Eriksen Galeiveien of 7 Bouy via Stavanger

Brother and sister names: Monrad, Thorbjorg

Monrad worked at Belljan

Margit was the youngest sister and had three children (sons that would be about my age) see attached pdf

Thank you for any help!

I would like to find more information about Grandpa and his family, but I do not know the Norwegian language. How can I break through the language barrier?

The information that is on this posting looks like it matches what I have been told over the years. Birthday, town, Mother, etc.

This looks like Grandpa John's family. Thank you very much.

How many are still alive? and if not where are they buried? How do I find some of their sons and daughters? What were their occupations in life?
