Ole Pedersen Foss, b. 24.12.1844 in Orkdal

Legg inn av dn17217 » 26 aug 2014 20:25:41

A great-grandchild of them, living in Wisconsin, searches info on her great-grandparents who emigrated from Orkdal, Norway, to USA in 1902, They settled in Trempeleau Co and are buried there.
We have much info on thm from their time in Norway.
Their great-grandchild wonder if there are any obituaries on them or any other info from their last days in Wisconsin.

Olav,
If they live in Wisconsin, they have a much better chance of getting an obituary and death certificate of their ancestors than we do. I can't get one as I am not related.

Hei,
I would suggest that the person contact the La Crosse Public Library, in La Crosse, WI.
They have an archives section with a very helpful staff of people, and they may be able to find the obit in the La Crosse Tribune newspaper.
They have a searchable website, also...

mvh Patty

Hei igjen!
In the 1910 Pleasant Valley, Eau Claire County, WI census:
Ole P Foss age 66, wife Marie age 62...they have a son Ole Foss age 31, who immigrated 1902.

Not sure when Ole, Sr. and Marie died...but perhaps the Eau Claire, Phillips Memorial Library might also offer some help, if La Crosse is not helpful.

I think it is Ole, Jr who settled in Trempeleau County.

mvh Patty

Ole P Foss
Birth: Sep. 21, 1844
Orkanger
Sør-Trøndelag fylke, Norway
Death: Feb. 19, 1928
Eleva
Trempealeau County
Wisconsin, USA

Date of death of Ole P Foss is 19 February 1928; burial 22 February 1928, per Eleva Lutheran Church records.
* * * * *
The date of 1842 birth for Ole on the stone is wrong and is actually 1844.

In the Digital Archives of Norway site I have the birth information for Ole Pedersen (Foss) (father: Peder Gundersen Fosjgerdet. The name Fosgjerdet was later shortened to Foss before the family emigrated to the US).

Follow the link below to Record # 2 under 1845 heading; however, the birth date is 22 November 1844. When he emigrated, he is now called Ole P. Foss.

Hei!
Olav, please give this site to your American friend:
http://www.ecpubliclibrary.info (Eau Claire Library)

Under genealogy, you can search the name.
Then ask for the obit by email to the librarian (there is probably a charge for this search...so the person from WI must ask). There is also a genealogy group (their email is at the library site) that will search for the obits. I have done this myself..the cost was about $5...

I am pretty sure I found Ole Foss, jr...that is the younger Ole (who immigrated 1902 in the list).
Many other children of Ole and Marie (Maren) are listed, also.

Which Ole is this person looking for...Ole Sr, or his son Ole who is age 31 in the 1910 census (immigrated 1902)...Ole (b. 1844) is not at the Eau Claire site.

mvh
Patty

Maren og Ole fikk tvillingene Arnt og Pauline i 1869:

Arnts utvandring:

Pauline dro i 1888:

Bernts utreise:
http://gda.arkivverket.no/cgi-win/webce ... 86945#ovre

Siverts utreise er lagt ut her tidligere og det samme er vel Oles i 1901.

Pauline ble gift Rye:

Olav er vel interessert i opplysninger om Maren (Marie) og Ole (f 1844) etter at de kom til USA ? Det er kanskje mest sannsynlig at de bodde sammen med familien til ett av barna.

Olav,
In answer to your question in your PM about which library to use...
Please read my entry from Aug. 27...
I explained everything there. The Eau Claire Library (Phillips memorial Library) is the one to use.
The link for that library is in my entry of Aug 27.

Aud Marion...
Oh WOW...I now see Marie Reitan was traveling with Maren, in 1902!!!
That is really cool!

mvh Patty
