[Gjest Robert Bjerke]

1. For her maintenance, she makes a living by spinning. 2. Has a small amount of public assistance, but otherwise lives by spinning.

[Gjest Mary Ellen Peterson]

Thank you. I could hardly believe it when I saw that you are from Manitowoc. I live in Kiel. Are you in the Vennskap SON. We are, but I don't have my member list handy. Mary Ellen

[Gjest Robert Bjerke]

No, I'm not a member of Sons of Norway.

[Gjest Per Nermo]

Her income from spinning seems to come in addition to her 'Føderaad', being a contract 'allowance' paid to her (in money or farm produce) by the new owners (users) of the farm, who may be or may not be her relatives.

Did you find the translation you had asked for under number 39940 ?Greetings from Sunny Lower Saxony

[Gjest Mary Ellen Peterson]

Yes, I received that translation and I thank you very much for your time. Have you done any other research near the Odden farm? We have a picture that we think was taken in that area of Norway. Mary Ellen

[Gjest Falk Liebezeit]

No,Sorry. I just wantedto make sure that you got this translation.None of my ancestors lived in that region of Norway. A lot of them were in Bergen and in Masfjord, both places in Hordaland.
