Would like to know 1. when Thorer Larson Mo and wife Kari Hansdatter Mo immigrated to either Canada or the United States. I believe it would have been after their son, Hans Thorer Moe and his family left in 1866, They sailed on the Olaf from Oslo to Quebec in 1866. They were from Gjerdrum.
and 2. if any of our Moe family remained in Norway. Don't know if there were other children for Thorer and Kari. We are planning a trip to Norway and would love to find family members if possible.
Thank you so very much. Connie Moe
P.S. Also looking for our family related to Lena(Lina) Maria Kristisen (or Christianson) born Aug 28, 1865 to Kris Kristisen ad Ingeborg Kristisen (perhaps a sister named Caroline). We think she was from Eidsvold, Norway. Her brother worked on a steamer as a porter (Fra Badet??). Family story is told that she might have been pregnant and was sent to Canada or America by her family. Maybe with her sister or her sister was already here. She married Ole Christian Moe, my husband's great grandfather.
