I am a great-grandson of ALFRED JOHANNES LARSEN(1872-1924) who was the son of ASKILD LARSEN HERLAND. The family emigrated from Bergen to Chicago in two waves. In March 1881, Askild emigrated with his sons LARS SEVERIN(b. 1865) and BERNARD (b. 1868). In September 1881, Askild's wife CHARLOTTE made the trip with daughters SINE (b. 1866)and OVIDIA (b. 1870) and sons Alfred (by ggrandfather) and ANTON SEVERIN (b. 1874). Ovidia and Anton died before they married and have no descendants, but Lars, Bernard, and Sine probably did have children, I just can't find them. Their last name in Norway is usually listed as HERLAND, the name of the farm Askild was born on, but all of them used the last name LARSEN in the United States. Are you related to them?
