[#64042] Looking for Hans Jacob Anderson

[Gjest Torodd Kinn]

Oh -- your question in (20) turns out to be right on the spot, Bill: All of Bjerke sogn is missing from the 1865 census. No wonder we can't find your people!

Here's the marriage of Ole Hansen and Inger Andersdtr. in 1838 (no. 640): Permanent sidelenke: LenkeHe's from Brekkedals E[ie] and 28 years old, she's from Ruds Eie and 30 years old.

As seen from (25) and (27), Andreas was born before his parents were married.Where I've written '... (wife?)' in (25), the church register has 'hans forlovede', that is, his fiancée.

[Gjest Torodd Kinn]

Correction to (27): Bekkedal, not Brekkedal.

Thanks again for all the help. I'm currently looking through Baptism records for Ole (1810) and Inger (1808).

[Gjest Bill Anderson]

I think I might have it Ole Hansen's baptism. 2/3 of the way down on the left side of the page. The Ole Hansen is plain as day, but I'm having trouble with the details (parents' names, farm names, etc...). I'll keep digging, but any help would be appreciated.Link: LenkeThanks,Bill

Actually, I found it in the database as well. Much easier to read! Based on the paper copy, this is the only Ole Hansen baptized/born during the proper time-frame (April 1809 - April 1810) to match the age at his marriage. I'm pretty sure it's a match.Thanks,Bill
