Ole and Mathilde were my great grandparents. They were from Tveit/Kostel area. They were married in 1917. Ole had three brothers: Jens who came to US in 1917 to Belchester MN, Martin Georg born in 1898? and Gunnar born in 1904. He had a sister in 1901 who passed away as an infant from whooping cough her name was Martha. Looking for any info on my long lost greatuncles or relatives. thanks Ole's dad was Ole Olsen Foreid born 1857. My greatgrandparents came to US in 1921 with my grandmother named Martha-she was adopted.

Thanks so much for the info. Is there a way to find out if I have any cousins around. Jen had no children and Olaf just had my grandmother. Martin and Gunnar I dont know about them. Thanks again! Kristin
