The baptismal record for your great uncle Axel Ingvald is S115.
Father Amund Amundsen and mother Anne Eriksdatter.
The parents were married Jan 3 1883, see U3.
When the son Alf was born Amund Amundsen was married to Marthe Andersdatter (his 2nd wife), see #8.

Einar,
Well, not married technically, as he is listed as "Enkemann" widower and she is "tjentstepige" unmarried female employed. person at the time of Alf's baptism.

| Wow! You people are amazing. It's incredible that you find find this information so fast. Thank you so much! How would I go about finding information on Amund's siblings and parents? I have absolutely nothing on this. Amund is as far back as the tree goes. |

Of course, Alf was born out of wedlock, they married later, between birth of Alf and Hilda.
Amund Amundsen was born Oct 4 1857, see #179, his parents were Amund Henningsen and Maria Pedersdatter at Ousvig.
The parents and siblings in 1865.

Hi Steve,
If you study what's in the records already cited, you know where Amund was born (Søndre Odalen) and that he was born in 1857 and his father's name recorded in the first marriage record looks like Amund Henningsen--my interpretation of the name might be faulty and other forumites are invited hop in with better interpretation--and that there are only 7 Amund Amundson's born 1857 listed in the 1865 Norwegian census.
The transcribed Norwegian censuses are available & searchable online at the Norwegian Digital archives. The parish registers for Søndre Odalen should also be available & searchable at the Norwegian Digital archives. In the registers you will find baptisms, confirmations, marriages & funerals. This availability is what makes Norwegian family history research so much fun these days.
Good Luck!

Amund Amundsens wife Anne Eriksdatter was born June 29 1860, see #160, her parents were Erik Gulbrandsen and Inga Amundsdatter.
Anne Elise, her father now a widower and a brother in 1865.

| Thanks so much for the help. This gets me really excited to see all of these connections being made. So it looks like it will take a bit of leg work and digging through the digital archieves to find brothers and sisters of Amund. At least this is a great start. |

Hello. I'm new to this forum. I'm trying to put together my family history for my 2 children. I was always told we are related (probably in a roundabout way) to Roald Amundsen, so this discussion really interested me. Maybe I can find some relatives on here? The farthest I can go back is the names of my great-great grandparents - Henry Oalson and Aline Amundsen (my great-grandmother was Olga Oelsen.... I have 2 different spellings for the family surname). I believe Aline's parents had the surnames Amundsen and Morton. Would anyone have more information that could help me piece it all together? Thank you so much.

Hello.
Do you know when Aline (very unusual name) or Henry Olsen was born?
Was Olga born in the US?

| I have October 30, 1855 for Aline. I don't have any other info on her husband. I'm not sure if Olga was born in the US or not. I know she married here, (in the US) to Willard Somers. |

| Fram crew list - this whole thread is absolutely fascinating. Not a direct question about the Amundesen family - but can anyone tell me where I could find the names of the crew members of the Fram from Amundsen's expeditiom to Antarctica please. |
