I am afraid it will be very hard for anyone here to help if you do not give more details to work on.

Hello Nina;
I read Tim Thuesen's posted re: Thuesen, but had missed this one.
I know little more than the basic facts about a distant cousin Marie Knudsen (b. April 26, 1908 at Hisøy to Karl Emil and Gunhild Katrine Knudsen; d. February, 20 1997 at Oslo) except that her married name was Thuesen.
What's your source for 42 Norwegians currently bearing the Thuesen surname?
Best, JK
