Thanks to all for this information. I appreciate it.
Lyndal40:
- Can you re-post the link to the marriage record for Gottskalk Olsen Heggen and Anna Salvsdatter? The link above is Ingeborg's birth record.
- Looking at Torchel's birth record, the entry directly below suggests that he had a twin sister, Ingeborg. Correct?
- Can anyone suggest a reason behind the apparent discrepancy of the dates of Torchel's emigration (1854 in Ministerialbok, but 1860 in the Passenger and Immigration Lists?
Takk
Don

Perhaps the book, "Polk County Iowa naturalizations, declarations of intent, May 1848 - Oct 1889" can help you solve the problem. ....
Passenger and Immigration Lists Index, 1500s-1900s
Name: Thorkel G. Heggen
Year: 1860
Place: Iowa
Source Publication Code: 6778
Primary Immigrant: Heggen, Thorkel G
Annotation: Date and location of filing of declaration of intent. Per source, the address of the publisher is P.O. Box 2103, Des Moines, IA, 50310.Source Bibliography: PIONEER SONS AND DAUGHTERS, compilers. Declarations of Intent, May, 1848-Oct., 1889, Polk Co., Ia. Des Moines, IA: The Pioneer Sons & Daughters Genealogical Society, 1983. 45p.
Page 17
It's not a discrepancy. The year date is probably the date of the filing of his declaration of intention. That filing could be done anywhere at anytime or not at all.
Yes Torkel was 1/2 of a set of twins. |

Quite a few from Fjelberg/Ølen ("Aalunds annex") settled very early in the Story Co. IA area and can be found in the website database for "Norwegian Heritage in Story County and Central Iowa".
http://genloc.com/NorStory/
I have at least one relative who also left in 1854 and even listed on the same page of the parish books linked above for 'leaving the parish' who was later tracked to Polk Co. IA, then Story Co. IA and finally resided in Wright Co. IA. That man's younger siblings also emigrated to the same area but they left at various times 5 to 12 years later. It was fun to see those pages again. Good luck with your research. |

Informtion concerning Solamon Heggen aka Salve Gotskalkson b. 1823 d. 1887
Fjelberg 1822-1834 Ministerialbok: #77, Salve Gotfrason, b. June 13, 1823
Fjelberg 1835-1851 Ministerialbok: #19, Salv Gottskalson, 14 1/2, confirmed April 24, 1836
Fjelberg 1835-1851 Ministerialbok: #10, Salv Gottskalkson, 27, to Etne-Skannevig, 1850
Skånevik 1848-1869 Ministerialbok, p. 211, #9: marriage of Salv Gotskalkson 26 to Sir Olsdtr. Tveito 26 whose father was Ole Mikkjelsson from Helleland.
Skåneviksoga 1, 1981, found her on p. 67 and her father on Utåker farm p. 251. Siri's first husband, Nils Andersson Tveito died in 1847.
Skånevik 1848-1869 Ministerialbok, p. 334: leaving parish for Amerika.
#66, Salve Godskalkson Tveito 30 3/4
#67, Siri Olsdatter 36 1/2
#68, Nieling 3 3/4
#69, Ole 1 3/4
#70, Anders Nielsen Tveito 9 1/2
They were likely passengers on the brig, Odin, that sailed from Bergen on April 24 and arrived in Quebec, Canada, on July 2, 1854, along with other families from Skånevik, Etne, and Fjelberg including Solamon's first cousin, Ole Heggen.
In May 1855, they were members of a caravan of families that left the Lisbon Settlement in Illinois to to found new Norwegian settlement in Story County, Iowa.
