Larsen Brothers - Vega/Nordland til USA etter 1900

[gj04100]

Jeg søker etterkommere av min oldemors søsken, som utvandret til USA etter 1900.


Hele familien er her i FT1900 på gården Baadnesstranden i Vega/Nordland:
http://digitalarkivet.uib.no/cgi-win/we ... e&spraak=n

Foreldrene deres var Ludvig Larsen og (Ulrikka) Anna Lorentsdatter.


Ludvig Mathias Larsen f.13.01.1882 Herøy, Nordland - ingen opplysninger funnet.


Theodor Mørk Larsen f.23.01.1884 Herøy, Nordland - Emigrert 1901 via England. Ikke funnet noe om
emigrasjon. Han skiftet navn til Tom Lawson.
Her har jeg sporet etterslekt i New Zealand, etter å ha funnet hans datters navn i Vega Bygdebok


Nelson Marius Larsen (Marius Larsen) f. 10.08.1887, Vega, Nordland, Han utvandret til USA i 1906 iflg. Vega Bygdebok,
men dette har jeg ikke klart å finne.
Har funnet han på SSDI som Marius Larsen, død august 1967 i Europa.

Dette stemmer ganske bra med Vega Bygdebok. Sakset fra boka" Etter at Marius
hadde besøkt hjembygda et par ganger tidligere, kom han tilbake våren 1966 for godt, for som han
sa:"for å bli begravet på Vega kirkegård""


Jens Andreas Lund Larsen (James Larsen) f.08.10.1893,Vega, Nordland. Iflg. Vega Bygdebok så er det usikkert når
han utvandret. Det er oppført at han har vært på besøk i hjembygda. Jeg vet også at han var på
besøk i Trondheim i 1963, da min onkel ble konfirmert. Har funnet på digitalarkivet at
han reiste 17.mars 1911 fra Bergen (71455)- brukte da navnet Båtnes.
http://digitalarkivet.uib.no/cgi-win/we ... e&spraak=n
Har funnet han på SSDI som James Larsen, død januar 1978
http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Search/ ... 4friendly=



Arne Larsen f.16.07.1895, Vega, Nordland, Iflg. vega bygdebok skal han ha emigrert 1912, men
dette har jeg ikke klart å finne. Men jeg finner han 27.desember 1919 fra Bergen (87783)- brukte da
navnet Båtnæs.
http://digitalarkivet.uib.no/cgi-win/we ... e&spraak=n
Har fått hjelp på digitalarkivet til å finne trolig hans kone også(88168)- Gunnhild Fredrikke
http://digitalarkivet.uib.no/cgi-win/we ... e&spraak=n
Har funnet han på SSDI, død april 1979

Håper noen kan hjelpe meg å finne ut noe om etterslekt av disse ?
Takknemlig for alle svar!

Med vennlig hilsen
Tommy Paulsen

Hi Margit!

Thank you very much for helping me!
This was greeat! Excellent!


You found very much information, but I still have som questions..


I see that Ludvigs emigration year is 1909,
Could this mean he is not registrated in the Census 1910?


Is it possible to find Marius in the Census 1910, 1920 and 1930 ?


Is it possible to find James (Jens) in the Census 1920 and 1930 ?
In the "World War I Draft Registration Cards, 1917-1918" he is married.

I have received an e-mail from Theodor Larsens (Tom Lawsons) daughter in NZ.
She visited James' daughter in 1974.(Alyce) She could be still alive.
I dont know if she were born before 1930.


Thanks again.


Best regards

Hei Tommy,

I would suggest you get detailed information about this person who was visited in 1974 from the person in New Zealand.

I have received an e-mail from Theodor Larsens (Tom Lawsons) daughter in NZ.
She visited James' daughter in 1974.(Alyce) She could be still alive.
I dont know if she were born before 1930.

I would also suggest that you ask about one person at a time. It is too difficult to search for many names and confusing.

Thank you again Margit!

Løfter opp denne igjen.. Har kommet i kontakt med ei datter av Jens(James) Larsen.

James skal ha giftet seg med en svensk dame, Esther. De hadde sammen en sønn Eric.
De ble senere skilt, og James giftet seg med Litta Bundgaard Madsen som flyttet til USA i 1927. I 1928 fikk de en sønn, Sven., født 01/09-1928, og i 1930 Edward(født 08/11)

Jeg har bestillt abonnement på Ancestry.com, men finner hverken Ester og Eric i 1920/1930 eller James og Litta i 1930.

Kan noen hjelpe meg ?


Mvh Tommy Paulsen

Hei Tommy,
It says his wife is from Denmark.
What is the name of the daughter?

Thank you again Margit!

James daughter is Alyce, born 21feb 1933.


I know Litta was danish, but James was first married to a swedish girl, Esther, and they had a son Eric.



Information given by Alyce:

------------
"He(James) joined the U.S. Marine Corps in 1917. He
trained in Texas and was subsequently sent to England
in 1918.

There, in London, on a railroad station, he
met his brother, Theodor , who was
with his British Army group. They had a wonderful
reunion, both being very similar and enjoyed life and
its experiences. Thomas, as we called him, went on to
France. My father eventually arrived back in USA none
the worse for war and by being there and serving he
became a US citizen.

He met up with his little family
who had been staying in Philadelphia with his brother,
Ludvig’s family, but did not want to go back to North
Dakota. He was a fisherman at heart and wanted to
stay on the East Coast. His wife divorced him and
went back out west. We never knew anything about his
first family until many years had passed.

"After a trip home to Norway in the early twenties to
visit his parents he returned to America and in 1927
he met, Litta Bundgaard Madsen, from Copenhagen and
there began my family"

I have tried to find Ester Larsen/Eric Larsen, but probably she is remarried, and changed last name......

[Margit R Bakke]

Hei Tommy,
When was Eric born? When did James marry Ester?
Margit in Minnesota

[gj05580]

I dont know.

But probably both happenings must have been between march 1911 and december 1917(emigration - WWI registration card that says he is married)

I will hear with James daughter, but she isn't online before in october.

I found "only" 18 Eric(Erik) Larsen(Larson) born from 1912-1918. Will try to search for Eric born between 1912-1918, but its probably hopeless....
