Got an email back from an Onsoy historian. Seems she pulled a little bit of information we didn't grab just yet:
"
Hei Victoria,



I found Maren Kristine in census 1900 on Frydenberg, Glemmen county (now Fredrikstad). She lives with her brother Andreas’ (born 1850) family. Mrk: She has been insane for 22 yars, and her husband in America for 18 yars.

I will try too find something about Ludvig and Adam in America, and why Ludvigs children used Iversen as last name when they left. I have a friend who maibe can help.



Maren Kristine left Fredrikstad, attest 26.7.1873 for Onsøy, Ministerialbok Fredrikstad 1857-1878, side 400, nr 28.



Konfirmert 19.4.1868 Fredrikstad østre. She was born i ”Vaterland”, Fredrikstad Ø.

I will try too find the family in census 1865.



Send you a picture of Onsøy Nursing home, alias “Onsø Poor home” ca 1905.



Mvh

Wenche"

The brother Herman Kristian Hermanson b. 5 Oct 1877 #151:

Not a good match (bd June 1877) migration date 1893 (can't look at original on familysearch due to their ongoing issues) in 1900 in Michigan:

Another slightly possible in 1894 in Michigan:

Hello all;

Just wanted to pop in, say thank you again for all of your assistance, and let you all know that I'm still working on this as best I can. I deleted my last response, since it was a duplicate; apparently my phone re-submitted a few days (!!) after I was last logged in. I don't know why. Technology, even at the best of times, seems to fail. Oh, well!

Wenche, my contact at the Onsoy museum, says she's found more material and I am waiting patiently (or as best I can) for that material to be made available to me. Not being able to read Norwegian is a serious point of frustration for me. From a personal standpoint, I feel that Klara was served a great injustice and digging up what happened to her seems to feel justified. She's not left to the winds of history, I will put it together in publication for future generations and cousins to read. She had a hard life. I believe she married her first husband to escape her servitude; she had left us a note saying he died in the flu epidemic, but I'm not sure that's true. She left the family a lot of wrong leads and misinformation. I'm untangling as much as I can. I try to take solace in the fact that the few pictures I have of her, she looks both happy and amused. She loved her children, from the looks of it. My mother describes her as a cranky person, and I'm certain now we know why.

I have one question, though... could one of you help me find Ålestrand, Onsoy, on a map? I typed it in to Google and Google doesn't seem to have any idea what I'm talking about.

My great grandfather actually was an indentured servant after leaving the state orphanage in Michigan. This was a shock to us as we assumed he was adopted by the family as he took their surname "Graham". If klara went through the state courts as her brother, my great grandfather, did, she too mY navebeen an indentured servant. Otherwise, orphans in that time period even informally became servants.

Good morning,
it is amazing to me just how much additional information each of the you have been able to add to our norwegian long lost family. I have been absent from this discussion for a couple years and your contributions have reinvigorated my energies.

In making a google search of Herman Ludvig I stumbled across a document of some legal proceeding I believe may possibly be my great great grandfather. I spent a couple hours attempting to translating the contents on page 101 through 107 with little luck other than a word or 2.

[url][/urlhttps://books.google.com/books?id=xPIKAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA105&lpg=PA105&dq=Herman+Ludvig+Mathisen&source=bl&ots=Ckp_pYG1qC&sig=1h-kwhPLITipzcsPeHf_KvPeoB4&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0CCQQ6AEwAmoVChMI9PrCmeCUyAIVy46SCh28VQTP#v=onepage&q=Herman%20Ludvig%20Mathisen&f=true


could I impose upon someone who can read norwegian to take a look at the document to see first if it looks like our Herman Ludvig Mathisen? The dates I see on the legal issue may depending on the gravity of the issue may have some bearing on the disappearance of Herman Ludvig.

if it looks like our man, i would appreciate any translation or summary to know what it is about.

thank you in advance and best regards.

Harvard Law School Library?

I tried transcribing a bit of this into Word and pasting it into Google Translate, but little to no success that way either.

---edit to add---

I was able to get some of this - albiet, garbled - into Google Translate and it's actually in Danish, not Norwegian. The text I've translated is very, very rough, but it appears to be something about land and inheritance...??? Please ignore "Hans Christian Andersen", it's actually only Hans Andersen, and for some reason, Google insisted upon inserting the famous author's name in.

It appears to be legal case law digest for Norway as such records are often published in US to examine and make familiar cases decided in lower courts and in states.

Would be very interesting to get an accurate and complete translation. It gives a death date for Herman Ludvig's mother Elen of 15 Mar 1883 which could be checked in the parish registers to confirm. Herman's insane wife is mentioned and the social service for the poor in Onso so perhaps the agency had an interest in Herman's inheritance to help defray costs of his wife's care or something.

A full translation would be nice. Of interest to me is the dates of the court case and whether or not herman ludvig was present during the final hearing, which could be an indication he went back to Norway after taking the kids to America, staying there. Strictly an assumption on my part. In any event this could be an important piece of the puzzle.

Well Herman's mother Elen did die 15 Mar 1883 here is the parish register page #15 on the bottom half of the page;

I have been trying to translate more fully page 103. It appears Herman Ludvigs mother passed away in march 1883. He entered into a contract with a land transfer agent to transfer his claim to the inheritance of his mothers and fathers for a sum of 714 currency. More to follow.

Separate from the translation.....
Based on the timing it would appear he may have used this money to bankroll his and his childrens migration to America in September. My assumption.

Google translator is good but seems to only get about 40 to 50% of the translation forcing me to take the undefined words one by one. This will take awhile.

Translating correctly Norwegian (Danish/Norwegian) law cases from 1888 to English can be difficult even if one speaks Norwegian, but it seems like the meaning, 40-50%, is ok translated.
