[#23802] Search for Christian Anderson/Andersen RONGLIEN/ROGNLIEN b. 1864

[Gjest Deborah Ronglien]

I am currently looking for our Great Grandfather Christian Andersen/Rognlien. We believe he was born in Norway 1863-1865 and emmigrated to USA 1877-1880.He settled in Minnesota and married Annie Dietz (From Denmark) in 1889. We are looking for: parents names, place of birth, Christening records, marriage certificate,naturalization papers, and passenger list. The 1900 Census lists him as: Christ Rognlien married with four children. We have his death certificate of 1943.Could he have come from a farm named Rognlien or Ronglien in Norway? He changed his name ANDERSON to ROGNLIEN in the 1880's. We would appreciate any leads to find him. Deborah K. Ronglien

I think the farm name was Rognlien.Rognilen farms in Norway: LenkeIf he died '43 you should find him in US Census 1920 and 1930 where the year of US citizenchip is noted (not always correct!)
