[#30930] Ole Stengrimson at Hilde, Buskerud, father of Stengrim Olson

[Gjest Betty Patterson]

Stengrim Olson was christened in Fla in late 1825. Parents are not married - Ole Stengrimson Hilde and Gor Olsdatter. I am not sure who Ole's parents are or which Ole Stengrimson this is. Does anyone know who was living at Hilde in 1825? Or can anyone identify this Ole? Mange takk for hjelpen.

Hei.Jeg kan ikke engelsk godt nok til å kunne skrive på dette språket, men jeg håper du kan lese dette på norsk.Det ser ut til at det er denne personen du søker etter som er omtalt i 'Ættens veier' utgitt av Oskar Steingrimsen i 1969: Stengrim Olsen født 11 februar 1820.Død i 1845. Han må ha fått en brå død, da han nemlig var trolovet med piken Guri Kristofferdatter Gulsvigeie, født i 1822 av foreldrene Kristoffer Andersen og Kari Halgrimsdatter. Guri var konfirmert i 1838. Barn: Ole Stengrimsen født i 1844 Kristoffer Stengrimsen ble født i 1846, altså etter farens død.Alf.

A quick and approximate try to translate:Hi,My knowledge in English is not enough to write in it, but I hope that you can read this in Norwegian.It seems that the person whom you are asking for is mentioned in 'Ættens veier' by Oskar Steingrimsen in 1969:Steingrim Olsen born February 11th, 1820. Dead in 1845. He must have suffered a sudden death since he was engaged/betrothed to the girl Guri Kristoffersdatter Gulsvigeie, born in 1822 by parents Kristoffer Andersen and Kari Halgrimsdatter. Guri was confirmed in 1838. Children: Ole Steingrimsen born in 1844, Kristofffer Steingrimsen who was born in 1846, thus after the death of his father.Alf.

Mange takk for the translation. I don't think we have found the right Ole Stengrimson. My great-grandather, Stengrim Olson, was born in 1825. His father, Ole Stengrimsen, was perhaps born in 1793 or around that time. There is an Ole Stengrimson from Hilde at that time. But I don't know if he is actually the father of Stengrim Olson from Fla, born 1825. There are two Stengrim Olsons christened in 1825 on the same day - one in Fla and one in Nes. The one in Fla is my ancestor. But Ole Stengrimson is listed as the father of both children. Which Ole Stengrimson is the correct one? Thank you.

Hei.Jeg håper at det er noen som kan oversette dette til engelsk for meg.Ole Steingrimsen som er født i 1793 er ikke far til Stengrim Olsen.Han fikk en datter i 1825, Ragnhild Olsdatter, som giftet seg med Knut Olsen Ve, og dem utvandret til Amerika i 1858.Alf.

To BettyA quick translation of previous writer:Hi. I hope someone will translate this into english for me.Ole Steingrimsen born in 1793 is not the father of Stengrim Olsen.His daughter Ragnhild Olsdatter was born in 1825 and she was married to Knut Olsen Ve and they both emigrated to America in 1858.Alf.

Thanks Kjell. So now I still need to figure out which Ole Stengrimson is the father of my Stengrim Olson. Any thoughts about how I might figure this out? The father of Stengrim is listed as a bachelor at Hilde in 1825 at the christening. I can't seem to find any in the 1801 census who seem about the right age.
