Josefa Bernhardine ble født på Bragernes i Drammen i en søskenflokk på 7. Hun ble døpt i Bragernes kirke, og i kirkeboken står bl.a "Jomfru Anne Stoltenberg" oppført som en av fadderne. Anne (Holgersdatter) Stoltenberg er en noe yngre halvsøster av Sara Marie, Josefas mor.

Would seem to be referring to Anne Magdalene Moss January 30, 1778
Kragerø, Telemark, Norway. But if so then Sara Maria would have been born before 1778?

Name: Anna Magdalena Hendrichsdatter
Gender: Female
Birth Date: 30 jan 1778
Baptism Date: 6 feb 1778
Baptism Place: Kragero, Telemark, Norway
Father: Hendrich Moss
Mother: Anna Maria Josepha Koss
FHL Film Number: 126947

I think Jackie has been here before.

Then the tree lists Peter Henrich as her brother b 1796 Buskerud. Major Peter Falck Von Koss and Maria Josefa Von Koss.

Last entry right hand page

Here is Peter Falk von Koss and wife Anna Maria Josepha Moss and son Peter in 1801. One would think that if Anna Maria had a daughter in 1790 that she would be with her mother.

They married Jan 29, 1788 Kragero, Telemark, Norway

Children of Anna Maria Josepha Koss and Henrich Moss Married 16 mar 1775 , Baptism date given All from Kragero, Telemark except Peter.

Joseph Albert Feb 26, 1776

Friderica Henriksdatter Feb 6, 1778

Anna Magdalene Feb 6, 1778

Andreas June 28, 1779

Maria Elisabeth Oct 14, 1782

Hello Lyndal,

I am still working on my family tree . I have a lot of info now (still a few gaps though!) Could I refer you to your post above with reference to Josefa Bernhardine from Geni Tree - can you provide me with the link? Is it available in English and who or what is the original source?
For your information, we are visiting Stavanger in August so will be visiting several sites and meeting some relations I hope.

Here is a link to the profile for Bernardine Josepha Hansen (Myhre) on Geni.com

Geni.com

The comment section is not in English but Google does a fairly good job of translating. I made a few minor corrections.

"Josefa Bernhardine was born at Bragernes in Drammen in a sibling group of 7. She was baptized in the church of Bragernes, and in the church book, "The maiden Anne Stoltenberg" is listed as one of the godparents. Anne (Holgersdatter) Stoltenberg is a somewhat younger half-sister of Sara Marie, Joseph's mother.

Josefa grows up in Drammen as the daughter of "Hattemagermester" Ole Hansen Myhre, and the family was good at it. The father owns 2 houses for several years, but then things do not go well , the competitors are many, and the father Ole gets sick. In 1831, the same year that Josephas youngest brother was born, his father goes missing, and in January 1836 the father dies of tuberculosis.. He was buried at the Bragernes church. The family has some heavy years ahead of them, yet her mother Sara Marie is able to give her children schooling and good education.

20, 27 Oct. and 3.nov. In 1844, the marriage of Josefa and Peder Hansen in Bragernes Church was announced and the week after they married. In the course of 1845 they moved and settled in Stavanger, where in the first few years Peder fed himself as a wheel maker, then a police officer and a headteacher witness. They became the parents of 4 sons and two daughters. Josefa and Peder died shortly in the fall of 1891, and were buried at Lade cemetery in Stavanger."

The Profile Manager is Bjørg Mossige Hansen and there is a link so that you can contact him directly.

There is not a source listed for the above information but if you click on the mother there is one source listed.

Sara Marie Myhre (born Stoltenberg)

However as shown earlier some of the information in this tree is not correct.

I also went back and read the discussion on "Myhre Family Kongsberg" at Brukernes eget forum at Arkivverket which is quite complete.

OK that's great thanks. I have been able to translate that info into english on line re Josefa and Peder.

There are a couple of errors in the Geni site and I have come across one possibility just today. We now know that Sara Marie Jacobsdatter and Anne Holgersdatter Stoltenbeg were sisters, the illegitimate daughters by Holger Scheel Stoltenberg born Feb 25th 1761. The mothers name is unknown (would love to know who). Holger had another two children by Ragnild Villand, his housekeeper, one son Christian Holger Stoltenberg B. 1796 who went on to marry Concordia Susanne Dorothea nee Lange and both are buried in Copenhagen. There is street named after him there.

The other son was stillborn in 1804, 3 months after his father Holger died. Ragnild died 3 days later. Holger and Ragnild were not married as far as I can see.

I think it is possible the von Koss/Moss connection could be with Holger Scheels older brother Holger Stoltenberg born in 1755 and that is where the confusion may lie.

I am looking for some other information on one of Sara Marie's daughters (besides Josefa) in Olava Charlotte Myhre B 1826 in Drammen who married a Kittil Jorgenssen Rude in 1846, had one son and left for America. A few days ago I received a record of a
'leaving a parrish' certficate with their names dated 1850. I have searched over and over for any record of their arrival in America to no avail.

Can anyone assist?

Ancestry.com emigration records show only one ship from Stavanger arriving in New York in 1850. The Ebenezer arriving May 15, 1850 with 82 passengers.

I did not see any names on the list that resembled any of the names in Jackie's above post

Several ships arrived from Bergen in 1850. Total number of passengers from Bergen was 833.

Still have not found any names from Bergen that click with the desired passengers.

He can be both...
The classic Norwegian name consists of 3 elements. The first or given name (Kittil). The patronymic which is based on your father's given name with the addition of sen or datter depending on your gender (Jørgensen). And the farm name which is essentially an address, since every farm in Norway has a name (Rude.)

The other child is the son Jørgen Hans. The daughter Jørgine may have died and the parish register should be checked for both her birth and her death.
