Dear Mason Soberg,Have you already found the census record ?HERE IS the census 1900 entry of the family (scroll down to the bottom of the page) :LenkeSøberg is quite rare as a surname; as of 1 January 2005 this is the name of 828 Norwegians only.Sincerely,Celvin Ruisdael

This Torolf Olsen in the 1900 census, living on the farm Søberg [url="http://digitalarkivet.uib.no/cgi-win/webcens.exe?slag=visbase&filnamn=f00417&gardpostnr=50&personpostnr=309&merk=309#ovre>Lenke. He is metioned together with Tilla Andersen, born 1842, and he is must be her grandchild, since he is called the son of her daughter (dattersønn). This must be the birth of Thorolf in 1896, Vang Lenke. His parents are not married, and his mothers name is Lina Larsen, born 1875, and if this Thorolf is the one and same Torolf mentioned in the 1900 census, then then Lina Larsen must be the daughter of Tilla Andersen. Lina has the patronymic Larsdatter, telling that she is the daughter of one Lars. In FamilySearch/VRI I’ve found this marriage:Individual Record FamilySearch™ Vital Records Index NorwayTilia ANDERSDR Age At Marriage: 21Sex: Event(s): Birth: Parents: Father: Ansten JENSEN Marriage: Spouse: Lars OLSENAge At Marriage: 21Marriage: 19 Jul 1863 Place: Vang, Hedmark, Norway This might be Lars and Tillia in the 1865 census Lenke. A parent search in FS shows that they have three daughters: Oline, born 18. Jan. 1863 Marie, born 23 Sep 1865 Ingeborg, born 01 Jan 1869I’m not sure if these are the elder sisters of Lina Larsen, because I haven’t found her in FS, and the 1875 census for Vang is not registrered in the Digital Archives, and the church records for Vang comprehend the period 1886-1900. But at least Lina has the same patronymic as Oline, Marie and Ingeborg, mentioned above, and their mother’s name is Tillia /Tilla Andersdatter. In the 1900 census for Vang I’ve found one Lina Larsen, born 1875, still not married, but she has a son born in 1900 Lenke and
