Sunne family Buskerud County, Norway to Minnesota
feathersI'm trying to find relatives over in Norway. My g-g-great grandparents were Mical Andreas Paulsen aka Mikael Kristian Paulsen and Julie Marie Torgersen in Norway. When they immigrated to the states their names became Michael Paulsen Sunne and Julia Marie Torgersen Sunne. Michael was the son of Paul Jensen-Sundet and Gunhild Maria Mikkelsdatter. His siblings were Pauline Marie Paulsen Sunne born October 6, 1849 in Kongsberg, Buskerud County, Norway. Hans-Jakob Paulsen Sunne born June 02, 1845 in Sandsvær, Buskerud County, Norway. Inger Maria Katherina Poulsdatter born December 08, 1826 in Kongsberg, Buskerud County, Norway. She married Olaf/Ole Sorensen Kongsgarden. Their children immigrated to the states. Martine Jacobine Poulsdatter born October 28, 1830 in Kongsberg, Buskerud County, Norway. She married in 1861 to Johan Fredrik Christian Sunne born 1821 in På Modum, Norway. They had two children: Olava Dorthea Sunne born 1865 in Sandsvær, Buskerud County, Norway. Peder Christian Anton Sunne born 1870 in Sandsvær, Buskerud County, Norway. Ole Nicolai Paulsen born December 29, 1834 in Kongsberg, Buskerud County, Norway. Jens Paulsen born November 24, 1819 in Kongsberg, Norway. Married Maren Kirstine Kristoffersdatter. some or all of his children immigrated to the states. Pauline Maria Paulsdatter born November 12, 1841 in Sandsvær, Buskerud County, Norway. Married (1st) Anders Olssøn Hegna in 1863 then married (2nd) Kristian Olssøn Økter in 1873. Children unknown. I would like to find any descendants of my g-g-great grandfathers siblings. I don't know exactly how to do that. Sincerely, Jeremy Millard
