Living descendants of Oline from Sel, Gudbrandsdalen, Norway

Legg inn av Aud Sandbu » 26 feb 2005 23:01:42

We are trying to find living descendants of Oline, a woman who emigrated
from Sel in Gudbrandsdalen, to USA in 1898. Our local church record tells
that she was born 21st November 1872. But we have a picture from Oline's
81th birthday in 1955, (then she should be born 1874) so we are not sure she
was listed with her right birth year in USA.
The picture shows Oline with her daughter in law, Betty, and a grandchild
called Cathy.

Another picture shows Oline with her two daughters Ellen and Ester. We don't
know for sure, but if we remember right, Oline had five children. One of
them was a son called Oscar, maybe!

We don't know her husband's first name. The family name was Johansen.

This is Oline living at Ingeborgøien in 1875: Lenke

And we think this is Oline emigrating from Kristiania/Oslo: Lenke

Our latest address from 1955 on Oline was: Oline Johansen, Granite Falls,
P.O. Yellow Medicine Co., Minnesota.

Unfortunately, we think that she moved to Wisconsin after the contact with
Oline and her family stopped.

Our hope is that a national register, or something like that, in Yellow
Medicine Co. maybe could have informations about Oline Johansen and her
family, and if and where they mooved after 1955.

We appreciate any help that can lead us to living decendants of Oline. They
will be very wellcome to a family gathering in Sel this summer, where
descendants of Oline's parents here in Norway, over 100 persons, will meet.
We are very sorry that we don't have more informations about Oline's
decendants.

Regards, Aud Sandbu
