Christian Anderson f. 1855 på Jevnaker-døde 1938 i Pekin,ND
Jeg ute etter informasjon om Christian som kan fylle de hullene jeg har og ikke klarer å finne selv.
Han ble født den 10 Juni 1855 på Halvorsrudejet, Jevnaker og hans foreldre var Anders Christensen f.1820-1887 og Olina Mikkelsdatter f.1828-1891.
Han reiste fra Olimbseiet,Jevnaker den 12. april 1879 og fra Oslo den 25.april 1879 med Angelo til New York.
Jeg har ogå fått opplyst at han kalte seg Christian Anderson Lien, men dette er jeg litt usikker på.
Christian døde den 8.juli 1938 i Pekin,ND og ligger begravd på Bergen Cemetery,ND.
Den 18.juni 1889 giftet han seg med Helene Marthea Haakonsdatter f.16.februar 1853 i Asprusten i Østerdalen {tror hun het Helene Haakonsen i USA}.
Helene døde den 7.september 1889 i Pekin,ND og ligger begravd på Bergen Cemetery,ND.
Er det noen som kan hjelpe meg med hva han livnærte seg som, om han bodde i Pekin hele tiden eller andre steder.
Jeg er også interessert i om han fikk barn og om han hadde vært gift før.

Re: Christian Anderson f. 1855 på Jevnaker-døde 1938 i Pekin
I have found a family in the 1900 Nelson county ND census as follows:
Christian Anderson age 45, married to Helen (hard to read exact name spelling).
They live in Osago township and have several children.
Can you please explain what year did Helen die?...you say it was 1889...was that an error?
Christian immigrated 1879 according to the census.
Do you think this is the right family?
mvh Patty

Hei igjen!
I think I found this same family in North Dakota 1910 census, Nelson county, Forde township...but the last nameis now Lien:
Christian Lien age 54, wife Helene age 57, son Henry (his name is Harvey in 1900) age 20, daughters Olga age 16, and Minnie age 13.
Helene gave birth to 4 children but only 3 are living.
Perhaps you already know this but the family are farmers.
In 1920, Christian, Helena and Olga Lien are together in the same general location as 1910...Nelson county.
In the same county, but living on a different farm is:
Henry A. Lein age 29 is married...census is very hard to read...but they have a son Clifford age 2 years+, and twins (I think so if I am reading the ages correctly) a boy and girl age 9 months. ..can't read their names.

Hello everyone...
Sorry that I haven`t responded to your answers before.
Yes I`m looking for descendants still living in America, it`s so fun when I find them and try to make contact with them.
Tomorrow I will look at all the information I got from all of you.
About Helenas death that was a little bit mistake from me, sorry but sometimes I write a little bit to fast.....
I don`t know when she died.
It`s correct Family you have found Patty. You said that they had the last name Lien and that is correct too, I heard that Christian last name was Anderson Lien but I was not sure about that.
Because I not was sure I did not write the Lien name on this page.
And at last......To everyone who has helped me....Thank you for your help
Please let me know if there is more information about this Family.

Hei Mette, Aud Marion and Margit!
I tried to find out if I could get an obituary for Henry Lien's son, Sidney Lien, from the Minot public library. ...now I am hoping I had that right, that Sidney was a son?...Sidney can be a boy or girl's name!
ANYWAY...
It really helps to have Sidney's exact date of death, July 31, 1999 from the SSDI.
Unfortunately the library charges a fee ($10) for any obituary searches...so that makes it difficult to get the obit. I guess they probably don't accept NOK as payment...! Don't know how important this would be to you Mette. But, the obit might give more information on the family of both Sidney and maybe his father, Henry?
The library has microfilm of the Minot Daily Newspaper back to 1895.
If you are at all interested here is the website for the library:
http://www.minotlibrary.org
I really enjoyed the aerial view of Pekin that Aud Marion provide through her link.
What a beautiful little town...
Ha det fint!
mvh Patty

Hei Patty!
You can get obituaries from the Archives in Bismarck for $5 an obit.
archives@state.nd.us
I do lookups here in Norman County, Minnesota for free:
http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com ... books.html
You would be surprised how many Norwegians came through Norman County and went on to other places and their obits are in my files.
There are indexes online.
There is Legacy where you can sometimes find obits for a price.
