looking for descendents/grandmother's siblings
grampsMy grandmother, Aaste Halvorsdtr was born 17-Nov.-1864 to Halvor H. HALVORSEN born 17-Aug-1831 and Mari Christiansdtr, born 10-Oct-1836 17-Nov-1864. Halvor H. had three brothers, Gunder,Nils born 1838,Ole born 1842 and a sister Ingeborg. Ingeborg married John Stokken. Ole and Nils came to North America in 1868. Halvor H.used surname Bekhuus on board ship, Rjukan when he came to America in April, 1872. A later census showed Gunder was living with his mother, Aaste Gundersdtr. This family is believed to have lived in Lunde, Bo(o with a slash). I would be looking for descendents of INGEBORG HALVORDATR.
BriningHalvor did live in Lunde, Bøe, Telemark. Here he is on the 1865 census [url="http://digitalarkivet.uib.no/cgi-win/webcens.exe?slag=visbase&filnamn=f60820&variabel=0&postnr=880&fulle=true&spraak=e"]Click Here[/url] and here is Ingeborg & John [url="http://digitalarkivet.uib.no/cgi-win/webcens.exe?slag=visbase&filnamn=f60820&variabel=0&postnr=273&fulle=true&spraak=e"]Click Here[/url]
BriningAnd on the 1900 census for Lunde Telemark this looks like John living with possibly his son & daughter [url="http://digitalarkivet.uib.no/cgi-win/webcens.exe?slag=visbase&filnamn=f00820&brukar=&loc=0&spraak=e&postnr=789&previous=7"]Click Here[/url] If you click the next button on that page the next farm looks like it could have a son Jørgen living on it.
