[#59650] Knud Olsen Teigen-Gire from Næs

[Gjest Gene Nelson]

This is my last hope. I have been searching for my g-grandmother's brother for sometime without success. My g-grandmother was Gunhild Olsdtr Teigen(born 26 Nov 1854)from Næs in Buskerud. The brother is Knud OLsen Teigen-Gire(born 12 Mar 1845). He married(26 Oct 1875) Guri Eriksdtr Braaten(born 5 Jan 1853) and they had a son, Ole(born 23 Apr 1876). After this event, I find nothing in the church records (Udflyttede,Births,Deaths), 1900 Census, or ships registries for the various ports. I also have searched in the USA. He seems to have disappeared. I would appreciate any help. Thanks, Gene Nelson

Many thanks to Liv Hege Jensen, Halden for finding Knud and family. I had spent many hours looking. Knud and his brother Christian stayed in Norway while sisters Ingeborg, Gunhild, Kari and brothers Thor, Ole, Peter immigrated to the USA. Now I know what happened to all. Thanks again. Gene Nelson
