GregGregory Keith: I am a descendant of the Jacobsen family who emigrated from Tysvaer kommune in 1829 and joined the Slooper settlement in Kendall, NY and later to the Fox River, Ill settlement. Christopher Jacobsen, the oldest of the three Jacobsen sons (later changed to Jacobs) would be my 3rd great-gandfather. Mother Jacobsen (Hannah Johanne Jonsdatter) married Andrew Dahl following the death of the boys' father, Svend Jacobsen, 3 years after arriving in Kendall. I have been living in Göteborg, Sweden for three years and just returned from a trip to Norway, and visiting the Tysvaer, Haugesund, and Stavanger areas. Would love to get in contact with other descendants from that area, and get more info on where and when any Slooper reunions are held.
