[#22154] Emigrerte fra Lyngen , Troms i 1873 sammen med Nils Paul Xavier og hans familie.

[Gjest Britt D. Hjeltnes]

I 1873 tok Nils Paul Xavier f. 1739 i Kautokeino, ut flytting til Amerika for seg og familien. Hans kone var Amanda Magdalena Norum f. i Alta, de giftet seg 1868. Barn : Johan Ulrik , Karl og Anna Charlotte. Nils Paul Xavier utdannet seg til prest i Amerika ,( ved Concordia Sem. i St. Louis og Concordia Sem. i Springfield) og har mange etterkommere som også er prester.Sammen med familien reiste også Oldine Anne Margrethe Pedersdatter f. 21.7.1851 i Lyngen. Det er henne jeg er på leting etter.Har gått gjennom alle emigrantlistene uten å finne familien utreist.Ønsker hjelp til å finne ut hvordan det gikk videre med Oldine Anne Margrethe.

Hi Britt, my Norsk is not so good, what are you asking? I see this family in the 1900/10/20/30 federal census. From MO they moved to IA, Winneshek county, by 1900; and between 1900 and 1910 most moved to WA, Pierce county. ..but i did not have a hit in the 1880, did they come to USA in 1873? Roger. ps ..born 1839? ...have you asked ELCA for help?

[Gjest Britt D. Hjeltnes]

Thank you for responding. I want to now the further life of the girl Oldine Anne Margrethe Pedersdatter , born 1851 , after she came to the US 1873. I think she was the maid of the Xavier family.What is ELCA ?Hilsen Britt

i just thought the records at elca.org ---Luth church -- might track his postings. (you could email the archives). I see 2 Mary(who knows which name she used) P's in St. Louis about the right age (family search/1880 census). Marith is born about 1876 in WI and Sarah, 1879 in MN and Oldine is not with them in the 1880, but you know that already, i suspose(you might confirm by viewing the image on film). So marr/deaths in MO/IL/WI might help. Roger.
