Dear Listers!
After so much success with this list (why didn't I try it more at an earlier date?), I decided I would also give this «challenge» a try!
Christoffer Pedersen - born at Veberg, Kroken farm in Luster Co., Norway Aug. 9, 1872, was the father of three children before he in the late 1890's moved to Copenhagen in Denmark. He married Apr. 20, 1902 Karentine Rasmussen, born 1869. They lived in Copenhagen, where Christoffer worked as a carpenter. They had two children, but were separated in 1912 and subsequently divorced.
According to relatives Christoffer Pedersen shall later have emigrated to the United States, and we fell pretty certain this may be the guy, a carpenter Christoffer Pedersen from Oslo, arriving in New York on several occasions in 1929 and 1930:
