It was suggested I look for help in this way... so Here we go! This is what I know definitively about My Anton Andersen. (EDIT- if you go looking or arrive at my family tree in ancestry, THAT Anton is not correct- After two years of research, I recently found out I had the wrong Anton Anderson born on Sept. 27) Anton Anderson- sometimes listed in American records as A. Anton Andersen B. Sept. 27, 1858 or 59 (I've seen both listed on American records) in Norway. Married to Helen Johansdr (I'm good with all of her info) Anton traveled from Norway to Hawaii 1880-1881 on the Bark Beta bound for the Sandwich Islands (Helen was on that ship too). they were married in Hawaii with no record. They celebrated their 50th Wedding anniversary in late March of 193. which shows me they married right after landing in Hawaii. 1883 found he and Helen in Jefferson County Washington- they eventually settled in Bellingham, Washington int the late 1890's. They had 11 living children with two sets of twins. Anton dies in Bellingham Dec. 23, 1943. I am good on all american info. I am specifically trying to find the correct Anton in Norway. The only record in Norway that I'm pretty sure is his, I stumbled across when looking at Helen's Out-Migrating from Asker Parish in 1880. She is marked as leaving for America on Sept. 29th, 1880. I know that she was traveling to Her parents in Lier and then to Drammen. Her document stated she was traveling with her Boyfriend. There is an Anton Andersen listed directly below her name and he was leaving Asker on October 18th, 1880 to travel to the Sandwich Islands. My gut tells me he is my correct Anton. But I'm looking for more proof. I'm including two links- The out migrating listing, as well as an Anton Andersen Baptism record where an Anton Andersen is listed as the son of Andreas Pedersen and Olava Frederiksdr in Asker in 1859.
