jwiborgHere he is in the Norwegian 1865-census: [url="http://digitalarkivet.uib.no/cgi-win/webcens.exe?slag=visbase&filnamn=f60805.wc2&variabel=0&postnr=655&fulle=true&spraak=e"]click here[/url] Parents are Lars Haraldsen, born in Gjerpen approx. 1814-1815 (Gjerpen is just north of Porsgrunn in Telemark county), and Inger Johanne Aslaksdatter, born in Porsgrunn approx. 1815. [url="http://www.slekt.org/English.html"]Here[/url] is a link to the "Skien Genealogical Page" You can find emigrants from Gjerpen and Skien there, but I'm not sure if people from Porsgrunn are listed. It's a good page though! [:)] Jan
