Jeg søker opplysninger om en slektning, Peder Ellingson Megård eller Megard, født 15. juni 1882 i Halsa. Peder Megård var dreng i Fjærvik i 1900, men emigrerte senare til USA, der han kom inn til Ellis Island 12. november 1902 fra Liverpool, med bestemmelsessted Duluth, Minnesota, hvis jeg tyder immigrasjonsprotokollen riktig. Han vart visstnok gift i USA med Inga Sørum. Peder var brannkonstabel, og bodde ei tid i staten Oregon. De hadde visstnok 2 jenter. Familien skal ha vært på besøk på Halsa i 1952.
Jeg lurer på om noen kan hjelpe meg å finne ut hvor det ble av denne familien, og om noen etterkommere lar seg spore opp.

Re: Peder Ellingson Megård, f. 1882 - Minnesota eller Oregon
Thanks a lot, Margit.
All I need to get in touch with them.
By the way, I have tried earlier to trace a man called Lars Olsen Lien, born 1859 in Stangvik, Norway, but with no luck so far. Lars was Peder Megard's uncle. Could it be that Lars is somewhere in the same area, or maybe in Duluth, Minnesota, where Peder Megard went first? I cannot find Lars in the Norwegian emigrant protocols, which indicates that he left before/in 1882, when the emigrant protocols in Kristiansund, the closest harbour, started.
Best regards,
Erling

Hei Erling!
Have you checked the Church Books for your Lars leaving Stangvik? Do you have his complete birthdate? Did he have any siblings that came to America? What is your source for him leaving Norway and going to America?

Re: Peder Ellingson Megård, f. 1882 - Minnesota eller Oregon
Hi, Margit,
Churchbooks are not easily available for the moment, so that is not checked yet. Lars were born on October 10, 1859. The parents were Ola Ellingsen Lien and Brit Gudmundsdatter Lien. The only near relative in addition to Peder Megard is Lars' cousin Elling Einarsen Lien, born on February 27, 1855. But the situation is the same for him, he left probably in the early 1880's, nobody knows where his destination was in the US.
I am quite sure they really left for US, I have notes left by my grandfather where all these ralatives are listed, unfortunately without any adress. The "Bygdebok" for Stangvik also says the same, but I don't know what sources the author used (written sources or just based on local tradition).
I guess this is what we call "a needle in the haystack" in Norway?
Regards Erling
