I have found their families going back in Norway. Census records show her Immigrating abt.1855 I find nothing of Ludwig or Anne in America.
I did find Oliva S. marriage 1874 in Cook County To Ole Dahl and upon being widowed moving to Lodi Wisconsin by 1900
She was married in Cook county Illinois in 1872. the first i records i find her in are the
1880 U.S. census As Matilda Dale in Dane county Wisconsin

Thanks
I'm trying to find out if she came with her parents, what happened to her parents,where she stayed. I can't find her or parents in 1860 or 1870 census.
I can't find any thing on Ludvig or Oline after the birth of their daughter in 1853. and i know you all have some mad skills in this area!
I only found out 2 years ago thru dna who my father was, and I'm trying to piece my family together the best i can.
It's been an adventure to say the least. I've met cousins and a sister. jwiborg helped a lot with the Dahls

When Ludvig Cornelius joined the Bergen Merchant Guild on January 8th 1847, he called himself Ludvig Andersen Indrebøe.

According to this clipping from the piece on the farm Indrebøen in Førde Bygdebok, Ludvik Kornelius Anderson, born 1816, first moved to Bergen and then to Trondheim.

Good answer. That will save us a lot of thrashing about. Do you know for a fact that her parents came to America.

No I don't, other than ToreL posting with the posibility of Ludvig going to Trondheim. I can't find him in Norway or The U.S.
I only get Mathilda's immagration estimated year of 1854 in 1900 census. which would mean someone brought her.

This might be of interest. From Trondhjems Adresseavis Thorsdag, 17 May 1860, page 4 "Andmeldte Reisende"

"Den 16de Mai, batteridyrlæge _roshaug fra Christiania og Ludvig Andersen fra Bergen, hos Mad. Fladaas"

And then this in 18 Mar 1863 page 2 Addressecontors-Efterettninger :
"Døde
Farver Ludvig Andersen 46 aar gl"

Here is the matching entry in the church book: (#36).

https://www.digitalarkivet.no/kb20070921650359

The age looks right, but the occupation is very different. Our man in Bergen was a merchant (handelsmand) and (approximately)pub-owner (kjældermand), while the deceased in Trondheim was a dyer (farver).

Google kept translating farver as "color" in both Danish and Norwegian, so I was unsure what it actually meant. Yes two very different occupations. That was the first Ludvig Andersen death I saw with an approximately correct age but there were numerous others in later dates in Trondheim newspapers.

If the 1855 date of migration is correct, Andrea was too young to really be going on her own and her sisters more so. I don't think any Bergen(and probably Trondheim, too) utflyttes were indexed in the old database of pastoral acts, so maybe there would be a record of the whole family leaving at some point in church registers?

Not sure how to translate this correctly, but this probate advertisement from the local Bergen newspaper shows a trader named Ludvig Andersen file for bankruptcy petition in 1854.
The note says that everyone that has receivables must make contact with Bergen probate court within 6 months.
Not sure, but it could possibly also mean a "normal" termination of the trading, ie. not a bankruptcy.
Maybe the trading was terminated because Ludvig planned to emigrate to America or move to Trondheim?
The case was finally handled in Bergen probate court on June 26th, 1856.

The emigration could possibly be found in Domkirken church register around 1855-56, but couldn't find his name there...

Here is a different notice several years later, on July 20. 1859, about bankruptcy procedings in Drammen for handelsmand Ludvig Andersen.

Probably not the same man. Here is one handelsmand Ludvig Anton Andersen, listed as father in a baptism at Strømsø, in the Drammen area, in 1860.

James

I wonder if this is not the marriage of Mathilda in 1876 in Chicago. I do not recall if this has already been posted. I know you listed 1872 above as her marriage year. Where does that come from.

Mathilda Anderson
in the U.S., Evangelical Lutheran Church in America Church Records, 1781-1969
Name: Mathilda Anderson
Gender: Female
Record Type: Marriage
Marriage Date: 27 May 1876
Marriage Place: Chicago, Illinois, USA
Spouse: Andrew O Dehll
Church Name: Trinity Lutheran Church
Church Location: Chicago, Illinois

Original is nearly unreadable
