Sissel,
What is your source for Hans going to Dakota? I find no one with the Bekken surname with your birth information given in the census records online. I checked Naturalizations for North Dakota and he is not listed there under Bekken. Have you found him leaving Norway? A date of emigration would help.
Perhaps you should contact the Traill County, North Dakota message board and see if someone would look up the obituaries of his sisters for you. Or you can order them offline from here:

Printed copies of obituaries can be ordered from the Institute for Regional Studies at the NDSU Libraries for a fee of $5.00 per obituary.

The copies will be sent by postal mail, not e-mail, therefore include your postal mailing address in your e-mail request. The billing will be sent with the photocopies.
archives@www.lib.ndsu.nodak.edu

(Perhaps if you explain to them in an email that you live out of the USA, they will look it up for you and let you know what it says about siblings)

Hei.

Thank you for the answer Margit.

I havent found Hans leaving Norway or coming to Dakota , only notes from an familybook that he left for Dakota late in the 80ties.

Rumers* says that he died on the boat from Norway , but I cant find him enywere.

I have been in contact with North Dakota institute for regional studies in 1997 , and they sent me records of Hans sisters and families.

Many relatives of Hans left in the 1880-1890 ,and all moved to Galesburg.

I will look for more information.

Best regards

Sissel
