My grandmother was born Elinor Inga Haldis (her American name was Eleanor Inga O'Connor) she was born March 1, 1910 in Bergen Norway. Her parents were Halfdan Olsen and Astrid Jakobine Olsen (Nielsen) also born in Bergen 1889. Can you please tell me why was my grandmother's last name Haldis on the church record? My family has no idea why she had that last name. Was she adopted? A step child? Born from a different father than Halfdan? Her mother Astrid Jakobine died young in her 30s in Bergen but for some unknown reason in 1921 my grandmother was separated from her father Halfdan and her siblings Alf Olai Olsen, Harry Adolf Olsen and Astrid Mary Olsen and sent to America on a ship with what we heard were friends of the family or family with the last name of Totland but her sister Astrid Mary went to Sweden but her brothers stayed behind in Bergen. Also we heard that she was legally adopted by an aunt in Provo Utah but we can't find any information . Please help me find out why her last name was Haldis at birth. Any information is appreciated. Also can you please tell me if possible if my grandmother gave birth to a son named Halfdan Andreas in 1909 and if so what happened to him? Also can you please give me any information about how or when her father Halfdan Olsen born 1889 in Bergen died? Or what happened to him? I can't find any information about him. No death records, remarriage or anything at all. Sorry for so many questions. Thank you so much. I love Norway. I wish I could be there. 😉
