Rennemo Surname
trennemoHello, I am searching for my Great Grand Fathers family. His name was 3 different ways:Hendrik/Henrik/Henry Minnesota Naturalization Records Index, 1854-1957 Name: HENRIK GUNERIUS RENNEMO Death Date: 05/29/1940 00:00:00 Death Place: BELTRAMI State File Number: 000834 Born 1861 or 1860 approx. Norway. Name: Henry G Rennemo Age: 69 Estimated birth year: 1860 Birthplace: Norway Relation to Head-of-house: Head Race: White Home in 1930: Shotley, Beltrami, Minnesota He was married to a Ingeborg Marta Rones from Beitstad Norway. I am running into trouble finding out when he came to america and on what ship, as that is all the info I have on him. They had 4 children, all born in America, one died really young. And a boy and girl, Gilbert 1913-1920 & Helga 1915-1920 of Scarlet fever or rheumatic fever. The only other child to survive was my Grandfather: Ingvar Olaf Rennemo born; 1908-1983 he was born in Guthrie, Minnesota. Lived in shotley MN. If anyone has ran across Hendrik Rennemo in your searchings could you please let me know? Seems like I hit a dead end for now! Thanks
jwiborgHi, Henrik Rennemo is listed 3 times in the list of Emigrants from Trondheim 1867-1930: 1st trip: [url="http://129.177.171.80/cgi-win/webcens.exe?slag=visbase&filnamn=EMITROND&variabel=0&postnr=74030&fulle=true&spraak=e"]March 29, 1893[/url] Note: Listed as "Henrik Rindmoe" 2nd trip: [url="http://129.177.171.80/cgi-win/webcens.exe?slag=visbase&filnamn=EMITROND&variabel=0&postnr=84763&fulle=true&spraak=e"]June 24rd,1896[/url] 3rd trip: [url="http://129.177.171.80/cgi-win/webcens.exe?slag=visbase&filnamn=EMITROND&variabel=0&postnr=94249&fulle=true&spraak=e"]April 3rd, 1901[/url] In the Ellis Island records, he is listed as "Henrie Rammews" (mistake by the transcriber), arriving April 23, 1901, with the ship "The Cymric", sailing from Liverpool on April 12th. Servant Ingeborg Rones (27), is on the same ship!! [:)] I'm pretty sure Henrik Rindmoe is your man, because he list his residence as "America" in his 1896 trip, and Rindmoe and Rennemo are pronounced very similar in Norwegian. He looks to be from the place Beitstaden in Nord Trøndelag county, ie. the same place as his wife... [:)] Jan
trennemoOh THANK-YOU!![:D] I've looked through that site, but everytime I thought I was heading in the right direction it kept changing me over to the Norwegian language!! I sat for days trying to figure out that site! Again Thank-You so much!! I know that is him!! Now I just need to find his parents! With all the Rennemo's in the world he has to be related to them somewhere!
