Torbjørn Kellesvig, d USA before 1860

Legg inn av gj09631 » 04 des 2013 18:35:13

I am looking for information for a Torbjørn Kjellesvig, who died between 1850 and 1860 in Green County, WI.

We believe that he was born on the Skjellesvik farm in Trondenes.

De kan skrive på norsk,

Takk,

John

PS ~ What might be the American name used for Torbjørn?

Hi, John!

If your evidence for Trondenes is solid, you might want to ignore the following candidate, who otherwise seems promising:

Torbiørn Michelsen at Kiellesvig in Fjelberg (Hordaland), (going on) 4 years old in 1801:

Torbjørn appears not to have been a frequent name in Troms at the time, but all the more common in Western Norway.

Regards,
Torodd

Thanks, Torodd.

Our evidence on where he was born is not strong, so we will search on the record that you found.

Thanks so much!

Best wishes from America,

John

Do you know how old he was when he died?

Hei Jan ~

No, unfortunately, he was buried in a group grave, and we don't have any other data on him.

We did find a bygdebok for Ølen in Hordaland which lists a man of the same first and farm names who immigrated to America, but the book did not list where he went.

So, I think we will focus on that area and see what we can find.

Takk igjen!

John
