[#29077] Agnes Jensen, born March 11, 1859

[Gjest Dayna Shepherd]

I know my great-grandmother's birthday, but I cannot seem to find her on VRI or any site so that I can find her family. She was born in Norway on March 11, 1859. She married Hans Olsen in 1882in Oslo I think. Can anyone help me find her parents and siblings? Thank you very much.

OK... i did not see the other case 29058... sorry Dayna

[Gjest Dayna Shepherd]

Thank you for your help. I'm trying to find the right Agnes, but I don't know who that is. All the information I have on her is that she was born on March 11, 1859. I have now ruled out Agnes Dorretea Jensen because somebody found that her birthdate was different. My great-grandmother Agnes Jensen married my great-grandfather Hans Olsen in about 1882, and then immigrated to the U.S. in 1883. That's all I know. I'd really like to find the Agnes Jensen that matches the birthday of March 11, 1859. Thank you for your kind help. I do appreciate it.

I belive one Agnes Ovidia was bapt. Jun. 13. 1859 Grønland menighet, parents Johan Jensen Oline Christiansdt.Maybe here in 1865 Lenke

[Gjest Dayna Shepherd]

If that was her, would her last name at some point have been 'Jensen' since her father's last name was Jensen? I'm not sure I fully understand how the names work. I just know she told her children her maiden name was Jensen. I would be so happy if this is her!! Thank you.

She (Agnes Ovidia) was born March 11th 1859 at Enerhougen.

[Gjest Dayna Shepherd]

Wow!!! Thank you to everyone for your fast help!! I never would have found this on my own. I don't understand the naming system as well as I thought! Yeah! Thank you again. Dayna

[Gjest arild andersen]

Congratulations... DaynaI am trying to find this Agnes Ovidia in the ft1865, but i can't find her???arild

[Gjest arild andersen]

well.. i found one in Oestre Aker with mane Agnes, but not with Ovidia. BUT the parents name are Johan and Oline. Olines aftername is not known??? Lenkeregards Arild

[Gjest arild andersen]

just one more thing ....If this is the correct Agnes i found in Ft1865 above, here aftername was Johansdatter.arild

I find in Grønland 10 februar 1884 Hans Andreas Olsen and Agnes Ovidia Jensen baptist a daughter with name Hulda Jenny Olufine. Found this in FS. This is just a suggestion.Marie Stephensen

[Gjest Dayna Shepherd]

Wow. Now that is interesting. That helps prove the marriage to the 'Hans Andreas Olsen' I thought was correct. And it adds an interesting twist in the names of children born. Thank you!!!

[Gjest Dayna Shepherd]

I forgot to ask, what is FS? And would 'Olfine' be a second middle name or a last name different for some reason?

[Gjest arild andersen]

Olufine is a second middle name and FS is mormon's Family searcharild
