| Ole Theodor Johansen's migration record? (number 7 left) Looks like it is the same guy, based on the date of birth. I cannot read anything that's being said though. Or the location for the migration. https://media.digitalarkivet.no/view/3997/20449/3 |

Permanently? Is he going to be living there or is he going to return home after the marriage? Does it say where in the country he is going exactly? |

He is still using their proper names at that moment, so I don't understand the change once they got to America.
That passenger list is also transcribed at NorwayHeritage:
http://www.norwayheritage.com/p_list.asp?jo=1575
The voyage was direct from Norway, so the person who made the list wasn't necessarily an English speaker and writer but more likely a Norwegian professional on the boat, so much more likely to understand the name as spoken and to be able to write it in the list. This would not necessarily be the case in US or even Wisconsin (that a Norwegian would be the clerk) although Dane county where they ended up is thick with Norwegians and Norwegian Americans (by that time 2nd generation). The 1900 census does say Syvert can read and write and speak English but they have been there for some time by then.
The name "Salvine", however, is fairly unique and looking for her is how I found the candidate family in Wisconsin. There is a lot of circumstantial evidence that these are the correct people but no direct "smoking gun."
However, there might be some evidence if you can find an obituary for Syvert, Salvine or Johanne (as Hanna) in which their travel story is printed. Newspaperarchive.com has some Janesville, Rock county, Wisconsin newspapers of the mid-1900s (and probably a Dane county paper or two) if you were interested in taking a subscription you might find something recounting their travel and origins.
These people may also be covered in the ELCA pastoral acts databases at Ancestry. Occasionally, you will find in deaths & funerals in the ELCA records more exacting places of origin than just the name of the country. This is also true of some confirmation records. Was Johanne confirmed before they took off? And maybe if the boys grew up to at least confirmation age, they might also appear in them. In the ELCA databases confirmations are lumped with the baptisms. |

It just says Sweden. Generally the expectation is when they get their attest that it will be more or less permanent. However, events can overtake a person then and now and plans can be changed. |

Right, so I will look through swedish recods later to see if I can find anything about his marriage.
For the moment this leaves Tomas Georg Olsen and Johan Severin Olsen. Both born on the 28th of August 1884, baptized on the 14th of September 1884 and confirmed on the 24th of Ocotober 1897. There is no mention of them up to 190, by which time they should be 36 years old, hence they should probably be married. According to what we know so far they appear to be overeas, one of them in New York. There is no immigration record for either of them though, but maybe they moved there?
Look like this is the same for the brothers Johan Severin Karlsen (Born on 1 September 1881, baptized 11 September 1881, confirmed 20 October 1895) and Severin Martin Karlsen.(Born on 24 Juli 1885, baptized 9th of August 1885, confirmed 15 October 1899) It should seem as though they've also immigrated to the United states and Autralia repectively, but no immigration record.
as for Terje Torstensen (Born 10 August 1836, baptized 28 August 1836, confirmed 20 Oktober 1850) and August Severin Torstensen (Born 23 Februari 1840, baptized 15 march 1840, no confirmation record) I believe we have nothing on them so far.

| I found this regarding another part of the family, I was looking for "Herman Julius Edvardsen" specifically, as he should have been called back then. Apparantly he and his relatives mostly went to America and adapted different names, I cannot find any immigration records though, not on the Norwegian or American side, perhaps any of you could help? http://data.eidsvollsmenn.no/familychart.php?personID=I24963&tree=Eidsvollsmenn |

According to this census in Norway, they should have been back at home still at that time. I don't see any indication of them being overeas, like with the brothers we spoke about a few days prior, they had a listing of being in different countries. Plus, in the American census the birth year for the father is off lightly. I mean, it could still be him but it seem unlikely, especially becaue the rest of their family is not in New York, but perhap the mother and other childern would come later?

According to what I found, most of the family migrated to the United states, but there seems to be some inconcistancies. |
