mutchkrHi Nina Absolutely sterling work!! Thank you very much for the reply. Possibly you can also answer the following: 1. Translation of Bro Legger; Brol Lærling; Tjenestepige; Stensætter. 2. Now that I have some father and son details for Fritjof, where can I obtain a birth/christening copy or do I still need more detail? 3. Is Clara Lovise Johnsen not that easy? Thanks again, Ken Ken R.

She's not in the emigration lists from Aalesund, but you can search other Norwegian ports here: http://digitalarkivet.uib.no/cgi-win/wc/webcens.exe?slag=meny&kategori=5&emne=1&spraak=e Nov. 23 1914 on the Union Castle Line, Nikoline Johansen b. 28/1 1876, married, living in Johannesburg, Afrika (aut.fører=chauffer?) returned home after a visit in Aalesund. Could she be related? Nina
