Digitalarkivet-Arendal Parish Register COPY 1861-1873

Legg inn av gj05467 » 19 aug 2009 04:09:50

I need help with translating part of this document.

Arendal Parish Register Copy 1861-1873. Year 1870. Pag 149. Line 60
Name: Anne Pauline, f.d Skibevigen, Tromoy (?). (This is my maternal Grandmother)

The part I need help with is in the Information on the parents. I can't determine what the words are before & following the name CARL JOHNSON. I am OK with the part of Pige Karen Marie Paulsd.

This fellow is my maternal Great-Grandfather, he drowned at sea off the Danish coast in 1873 and the family records only state he was from Gefle (Gavle) Sweden. So, anything that this document might yield would be of interest.

The couple were not married at the time of the birth of Anne Pauline and in my searching I find Karen Marie's subsequent marriage in 1876 to Enkenmand Per Asbjornsen shows her as a Pige. I am translating that as being an unmarried maiden.

I can read Norwegian, but my written Norwegian is not publishable!

The information in front of Carl's name is his profession, and after comes the name of the community within Gävle that he came from. However you need a better eye than mine to read it. It is however interesting to see that Peder Asbjørnsen is among the godfathers..

Tusen takk!!!
I had not checked the Official record and so I notice the information about Karen Marie is different from the Parish Register Copy.
I can read her age as 20, which is correct according to our Grandmother's records. The next two lines the handwriting is somewhat difficult for me to decipher. Am I reading it correctly that she either gave birth or lived in Tromsø? The Parish Register Copy seems to indicate that my Grandmother was born in Tromsø, whereas we understood the birth was in Tromøy.
If you can read this fine, you have been most helpful and once again Tusen Takk!

Dear Roy, the birth is in Tromø parish, which at the time covered the island of Tromøy outside of Arendal in southern Norway, including some major territories at shore. Please forget about Tromsø, and take care when you draw conclusions if you are not familiar with the geography or understanding of church books. A wrong lead can cause you a lot of wasted time.
