RAGNHILD OLSDATTER
jjI have just learnt my great grandmother, Marit Olsdatter Rui, born 1835 in Gudbrandsdalen, Oppland, Vaga parish, Norway, daughter of Ole Olsen and Pernille Christensdatter, had a sister, Ragnhild, who immigrated to America. Ragnhild married a Nelson, but I don't know if that was in Norway or America. I have no other information on her. I would like to learn more. Any help? Sure appreciate it. Thanks!

BriningIn the 1865 census this appears to be her, unmarried but with a child [url="http://digitalarkivet.uib.no/cgi-win/webcens.exe?slag=visbase&filnamn=f60515&variabel=0&postnr=7369&fulle=true&spraak=e"]Click Here[/url] In the 1875 census but no child. Possibly died or working on another farm?

Unmarried so you will have to find more info in the US.

jjThank you so very much. This means a lot to me. I do wonder what happened to Ragnild's son that he isn't shown on the 1875 Census. Always a mystery to solve,eh? jj >Juanita<
