Kritian Olsen, f. 28.02.1879 i Sør-Aurdal
Kristian Olsen var sønn av Ole Olsen og Barbro Knutsdatter, som bodde på Spangerud i Sør-Aurdal da sønnen ble født 28.02.1879. Kristian ble konfirmert i Bagn i sør-Aurdal 28. mai 1893. I "Valdres bygdebok, gard og bygd i Sør-Aurdal, bd. 1", s. 91 og 92, står det at han dro til Amerika. Jeg har strevd litt med å finne ham og trenger derfor hjelp til å få litt dytt i ryggen på å få plukket ham opp på vestsiden av havet.

I think the Kristian Olsen that Ann-Mary found is the one that arrived in New York
on 2 May 1904. His destination is listed as Niagara, North Dakota, to his brother-in-law,
Amund Rustebakke. Kristian is listed as being from Valders.
Does Amund Rustebakke fit as a brother-in-law?

Re: Kritian Olsen, f. 28.02.1879 i Sør-Aurdal
Thank you so very much to all of you! It's the correct Kristian Olsen you have found for me. I am every so grateful, and it can't have been easy with the name he had - "nobody" else in Norway has been alive with the first and last names. So again: thank you all! By the way: I don't know if Amund Rustebakke is his brother-in-law - but that is something I can work with.
Best of love,
Anne Benum
