Looking for the Names of the PARENTS of ARNE THOMASSEN f. 21 Aug. 1901 in 'Kragerø' .. He emigrated to USA. He returned to Norway and died 8 Jan.1989 His Son here in USA is looking for family information and Ancestors.. Thank you!

The birth records for Kragero on on scanned churchbooks on this website. I looked at 1901 and saw only 1 Arne born Nov. 19. Parents were not Thomassen. You can check 1902 and see if he was baptised then. Was he Lutheran? If not, check dissenters which may not be on filmed yet. You can also try the website for Telelag (in America). Maybe someone there can help you.
