Guro ble født 19.05.1845 i Ullensvang Hordaland.
Hun reiste til Amerika fra Bergen 23.04.1868 med skiipet Ørnen som skulle til Quebec. Hun ble gift med Jacob Olson Opheim født ca. 1843 fra Odda og de fikk 5 barn,Olav,Georg,Jane,Julie og Tina.
Hvor reiste hun til? Er det etterkommere idag som lever.

Kan se ut som at det er riktig Jakob i allefall. Fant en passøknad som stadfester at han er født i "Oddi" i Hardanger. Der står det også når han reiste til Amerika og når han ble naturalisert. Guro ble ofte amerikanisert til Julia.

Dennis G. Opheim - Age 61

Dennis George Opheim, son of Irvin George and Ione (Lieuwen) Opheim, was born on April 1, 1948, in Fort Dodge, Iowa. He graduated from Humboldt High School with the class of 1966 and continued his education at the University of South Dakota in Vermillion, where he was awarded a Bachelor of Science degree in teaching in 1970. After graduating from USD, Denny attended the University of Northern Iowa where he began graduate course work.

On April 20, 1974, Denny was united in marriage to Pamela Stoner in Humboldt, Iowa. One son, Joshua, was born to this union. After their wedding, Denny and Pamela made their home in Harlan where Denny taught social studies and history at the Harlan Community Middle School. After he left teaching, Denny worked at Handyman Supply before working at Farm Bureau as an insurance salesman.

In 1976, Pamela opened Present Trends in downtown Harlan where Denny joined her in 1983. To many customers, it was known simply as "Denny’s Store." Denny took great pride in owning the store and was always friendly and helpful to his customers. He enjoyed all the people of downtown, especially taking daily trips around the square and catching up on all the latest gossip at the local shoe repair store.
