August and Olea Vefald
I am looking for information regarding August and Olea Vefald - their son Christian was born in 1874. In the 1910 USA Federal Census the family (August - now a widower, Christian, his wife Mary and their children are all living in Wisconsin. All we know is that Christian and his parents were born in Norway and that they used the name Vefald in USA. Later descendents in this county said they came from Bergen.
Thank you for any help you can give me.

Re: August and Olea Vefald
In another post you say they came from Drangedal?
https://slektsforum.slektogdata.no/view ... highlight=
Please give all relevant information you know about.
I think maybe Drangedal or Seljord is more likely, because there we find a farm called Vefall.
You refer to US cencus. The family are found in both 1900-, 1910 and 1920-cencuses. Important information is that August was born about 1850, Christian in september 1874 and the family immigrated in 1882-83. Christian married Mary 1895.
In a web-page http://www.ourfamilyancestry.org/wc03/wc03_014.htm it is stated that Augusts wife Cacelia Olia Hanson was born 17 Febr 1847 and died 8 Oct 1898 in Wisconsin. This information need further investigation

These people might be August and Cecilia Olea, but I have not found their son Christian in the books.

Re: August and Olea Vefald
Hi
Only Hans (Christian) emigrates together with them.
Guess this means Ingeborg Andrea died in Norway.
