Maybe but needs more proof to be certain.

I haven’t been able to find Iver Iverson’s (Bertha Andersdatter’s hudband) death in Minnesota. He also doesn’t have a Find a Grave profile. Apparently he is buried in the St. Petri Cemetery in Nielsville. I visited it and didn’t see him there (although I wasn’t looking for him specifically). In my tree I have that he died before 1900.

Hi again. So I know it was said earlier in this discussion that the Iversons immigrated to the US in September of 1865, and how it was too early to have their emigration records recorded in Norway. I was just wondering if any record exists of their immigration/emigration at all, or is all we have a date?

The type of migration record on the parish level is called utflyttede and if it exists for the parish they left from can be determined by looking at the online parish record search at the digitalarkivet. Do you know the name of the parish they departed from?

Yes, they both originate from Hof, Hedmark parish. I checked the In-and-out migrant records; nothing. It was also said that Iver and Bertha were married in Norway, but I wasn’t able to find their marriage record or the birth record of their daughter, Johanna.

He died probably between 1895 and 1900, since he is in the 1895 Minnesota state census:
https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:MQ6J-67G

Did Iver (the father) own land? Date of sale of the property might mark his death date or bracket the date of his demise more closely. If he owned wealth perhaps there is an estate settlement.

Here is an earlier topic searching for Norway connections:

Yes he did. I’m not sure if he did in Hubbard, Polk, but he did in Sacred Heart, Renville, in the 1870 census. His personal estate is worth $300 and he is listed as a farmer. This wasn’t necessarily close to his death though, so it may be of no use.

Red River Valley Genealogical Society notes in their volume 10 of Polk County Cemeteries of Minnesota on page 68 regarding cemeteries found in Hubbard Township:

"...There was, in 1915, a cemetery shown in Sec. 13 Range 48 W [Twp 147N] Local citizens have informed us this cemetery disappeared when the drainage ditch was built. We have no other information..."

Also in their book, they noted burials not memorialized with stones at St. Petri were collected from the actual church registers by a man named Clarence Paulson. Even in that list from St. Petri there was no old man named Iver Iverson, although there is an Iver Iverson with one date 1876. It might be possible that this is Iver with a misinterpreted 76 for 96. I think that the St. Petri records are in the ELCA databases in Ancestry. The problem with any 1876 date is that St. Petri's records don't begin until 1890, so might be worthwhile to check. He lays in the actual headstone readings next to Almer Iverson 1895-1897.
