[#17002] Andreas-Anders Pedersen - Hedmark?

[Gjest Andrew Peterson]

Heidi, thanks for replying. Lets see, Andreas-Anders Pedersen had a sister Lena Bredeson (after marriage) and he had a brother John. Andrew married Emma Arntsdatter, b. Sept 3, 1880. She was from Nes, Hedmark, so maybe he was too. That might be a lead. They were married in about 1898 in Norway, first son born in US April 1899. They had 12 children. I don't know where Andrew emigrated to when he first came to the US in 1890, so I havent been able to locate his naturalization papers. Then he went back to Norway as a US citizen before he married Emma. Andrew outlived his wife, so when he died at age 80, the informant didn't know about his past in Norway.

Thank you Heidi! Maybe you can help me make a link to were Andrew can find Anders parents in 1900?They are under Taangen Nes Hedemark.And perhaps you could make a link to the 1865 'telling'. They are still under Hovelsrud gnr.3. His father is a widower and his mother is a servant on the farm.Im a little bit 'klønete' with this links. :) Else Kari

1900 Andrew's parents in Norway: Lenke

[Gjest Andrew Peterson]

Thank you everyone! This is all great stuff! So Andrew brought his wife two brothers, Johan 17, and Emil 19, with him the to Boston. Of course this leads me to more questions.Are there any parish records on the birthdate/christening for Anders Pedersen and his siblings? Also, I don't understand how the connection was made to Ander's parents, shown in linked document for 1900 census, since Anders is not in the household.Where did the Pedersens come from what was the occupation of Ander's father?Many thanks, Andrew

[Gjest Else Kari Vilhelmsen]

Hi again,As I wrote earlier the book of immigrants from Nes told us 'that his parents was crofters on a place called Tangen under the farm Hovelsrud'This farm lies on Helgøya in Nes parish.To be sure that this information is correct we have to check the churchbook.You will also find Anders and Emma`s marriage there. Unfortunatly I don`t have access to this for the moment.The family is probably mentioned in 'Nes bygdebok' that includes Helgøya. Hans Myhre is the man to help you here, if he got the time.Else Kari

You'll find it at '17000'

Does anyone have the first emigration of Anders Pedersen b. 1873? He originally came to the US in 1890, then went back to Norway to marry Emma Arntsdatter in 1898. Would like to know where in the US he was from 1890-1898. Perhaps with his brother Georg, who emigrated in 1895?And Emma's sister Mina Arntsdatter, b 1874 . I have her moving to Kristiania in 1892, then 'attest' in 1897. Lost her after that.TIA,Andrew

[Gjest Else Kari Vilhelmsen]

Anders Pedersen first went to America 18/4 1890 with Angelo, he was 17 years and with him he had Emil Pedersen 11 years they had a ticket to Deerfield.So Emil is registered two times, but I dont think he went until 1898,when his brother came back on visit. His older brother Georg who went with the Juno 10/5 1885 also had a ticket to Deerfield.Else Kari

[Gjest Andrew Peterson]

Else,Thanks for the great info, but who is Angelo? Could it be a nickname for Ander's older brother Olaus? He would have 19 in 1890 and Anders 17. Emil would only be 10 in 1890.

[Gjest Else Kari Vilhelmsen]

Angelo and Juno are the names of the ships they went with, and no person. Else Kari

[Gjest Andrew Peterson]

Thanks, Else. Can you provide the links to to 1890 and 1895 emigrations? If not, did they go through Boston or New York?
