Hi,

Has anyone ever heard of a farm called "Juilane"? It is supposed to be near Stavanger.

Tusen takk!

Hi Margit,

Yes, that was the first place I looked, nothing even close. I don't think I am going to
get anyplace this time. Looking for a Siri Larsdatter Juilane who emigrated to America in
1825. Born after 1801, left before 1865...... going to be difficult!
