These are Rolf's maternal grandmother and 2 aunts and uncle going to US in 1882. Don't know if this was intended to be permanent relocation or not:

Interesting there is a lady from Sweden with a Family Tree on Ancestry.com that contains information on at least some of this family.

Niels Julius Dechmann
1864–1942
BIRTH 17 AUG 1864 • Stromso, Buskerud, Norway
DEATH 13 APRIL 1942 • Chicago, Cook, Illinois, USA

She lists two siblings of Niels and his mother but no father?

Wilhelm Severinus Dechmann
1860–1893
BIRTH 13 AUG 1860 • Stromso, Buskerud, Norway
DEATH 28 OCT 1893

Peder Rangvald Dechmann
1867–
BIRTH 1867 • Stromso, Buskerud, Norway
DEATH Unknown

Mother is listed as

Ingeborg Helene Hansen
1824–
BIRTH 1824 • Slagen

I do not know whay the Swedish lady did not add the name of the father of the three sons with mother Ingeborg Helen Hansen. Ancestry.com data records show his name to be Anders Dechmann.. A little poor use of Norwegian naming practices in the headline.

Gender: Male
Birth Date: 13 aug 1860

Baptism Place: Strømsø, Buskerud, Norway
Father: Anders Johan Dechmann
Mother: Ingeborg Helene Hansen
FHL Film Number: 278218

Apparently grandma Marie came to America twice. Here she is with son Carl coming in 1884 on the Martha Washington #52 & #53:

In the Brooklyn Daily Eagle 26 May 1931 pg 20:

"Dr Frank C Raynor died 25 Mar 1931 at Oslo Norway, formerly of Brooklyn and Port Jefferson, L.I., husband of Marie Deichman Raynor."

Would he be in Oslo's dodfallsprotokol?

It appears that Marie's daughter and her granddaughter Marie may have lived in Norway for some time.

This is from Gravsferdsetaten I Oslo:

Who knows? I did send a within system epost to her to let her know that we think we've got him, but so far no response.

Also there is further work to do to pick up all the records Jane mentioned on page 1. Some of them might further tie the guy to this family. Or maybe Harda Diechman Sørenson's dodfallsprotokol might mention missing Rolf.

Rolf was still around to be confirmed #57 in 1903 (the family tradition was that he ran away at age thirteen which means about 1901 since he was born in 1888 or about 1903 if the birthday was 1890):
SAO, Trefoldighet prestekontor Kirkebøker, F/Fb/L0004: Ministerialbok nr. II 4, 1896-1915, s. 97
Brukslenke for sidevisning: https://media.digitalarkivet.no/kb20060606050576

Here the family is living 19 Wergelandsv in 1902. Rolf is called "Finn":
OBA, Kommunal folketelling 1902 for Kristiania kjøpstad, 1902, s. 23551

They don't appear to be at this address in 1903 at the time of the census.
