Trying to locate my grandfather known in Australia as Charles Lewis Wilson I have quite strong evidence to believe that he was Carl Ludwig Olsen who was born on the 22/9/1866 in Horten . His father Oluf (Ole)
Andersen was born in 1825 inWarmeland Sweden. His wife was Anne
Cecilie Fredriksdatter born in 1831 in Sandar. Oluf's father was Anders Svendsen. Anne's father was Frederick Larsen.
I would appreciate any further leads on these people.

Anne Cecilias parents Frederich Larsen and Elen Marie Nielsdatter were married March 24 1820, see #22.
Frederich was 31 years old from Sandar and Elen Marie was 19 years from Borre.

Their son Lars was born April 3 1821, see #29.
Their first daughter born Nov 8 1824 was baptized Anna Cecilia, see #17.
A son Nils was born May 5 1826, see #28.
Confirmation record for Niels shows that the family still was at Sandar 1842.

From the 1875 and -85 census we read this family was poor.

In the 1865 census Tanner Ole Andersen was born 1815.
In the death record from 1872 he was born 1814, such differences are normal.
He died in the hospital of Pneumonia Nov. 24 and was buried Dec. 1. 1872
Fattiglem (Poorpauper) and former tanner, married, Ole Andersen 1814, see #57

Two records of importance remains.
They probably married in Tĝnsberg, not found, with information about who his father was and the migration where he settled in Tĝnsberg.
