Petter Pedersen born 08 Jan 1807 in Mosvik

[Thad Carlson]

Hello,

I am trying to find out what happened to my 3rd great grandfather Petter Pedersen and wife Petronella Jonasdatter. I have found records for this family up to 1858, but I do not know when or where either Petter or his wife Petronella died. I cannot find either in the 1865 census. Likewise, I could not find any suitable death records in FamilySearch. I hope someone may have a local Bygdebok for Mosvik, and that my ancestors may be mentioned in that book.

Here is what I know of Petter Pedersen and Petronella Jonasdatter.

Petter Pedersen was born 08 Jan 1807 in Mosvik to parents Peder Arntsen and Doreth Olsdatter. I think he is towards to top of the second column on the left-side page of this record: http://www.arkivverket.no/URN:kb_read?u ... 29954&js=j

Petter appears in the 1810 census living on Opgrand with his parents and three sisters.

Petronella Jonasdatter was baptized 13 Dec 1812 in Strinden Parish and born to parents Jonas Jonsen and Marith Pedersdatter. She is on the right-side page just over half way down on this record: http://www.arkivverket.no/URN:kb_read?i ... x_side=-87

Petter was confirmed 21 Sep 1823. He is #2 on the left page of this record: http://www.arkivverket.no/URN:kb_read?i ... _side=-143

Petronella was confirmed 02 Nov 1828 in Mosvik. She is #11 at the top of the right page at this record: http://www.arkivverket.no/URN:kb_read?i ... _side=-153

On Aug 16 1833, they had their first child out of wedlock - Johan Peter Pedersen. I found this record using the database "Mette Værnes: Døypte i Mosvik sokn i Ytterøy prestegjeld 1817-1842."

On 10 Sep 1835, Petter Pedersen married Petronella Jonasdatter in the Eid church in Mosvik. Petronella would have been close to 9 months pregnant at the time. The writing is hard for me to read on this record, but I think they are the 2nd couple on the right-side page of this record: http://www.arkivverket.no/URN:kb_read?i ... _side=-124

On 26 Sep 1835, they had their second child - Mortinus. I also found this record using the database "Mette Værnes: Døypte i Mosvik sokn i Ytterøy prestegjeld 1817-1842."

On 13 Nov 1841 they had twins - my ancestor Elen Margrethe and (top of right-side page) and her twin brother John Andreas (top of left-side page). http://www.arkivverket.no/URN:kb_read?i ... x_side=-82

The next record I have for Petter Pedersen and Petronella Jonasdatter is for the confirmation of their daughter Elen Margrethe. Elen was confirmed 03 Oct 1858. It lists here parents and shows them living on Opgrand. She is #16 at the bottom of the left-side page on this record: http://www.arkivverket.no/URN:kb_read?i ... _side=-135

The last record I have for Petter Pedersen is the marriage record for his daughter Elen Margrethe to Hans Gudmundsen Ringsveet on 10 Sep 1869. On this record, I think it says Petter Pedersen is from Lille-Dalstrøen. They are couple #5 on the left-side page of this record: http://www.arkivverket.no/URN:kb_read?i ... _side=-107

I would love to find Petter and Petronella in the 1865 census. There is a Petter Pedersen living on Lille-Dalstrøen in the 1865 census, but he has a different wife (2nd wife?) and it lists his birth place as Lexvigen instead of Mosvik. Is this the right person?Petronella is somewhat of a unique name, so it seems she may have died before the 1865 census. I would love to find when and where they died as well, or if they had any additional children.

Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,

[Marit Lorvik Sørli]
