I am trying to find any information about the wife of Gabriel Torjersen 'Egeland'. Here is what I know:Gabriel was born 12 Feb 1867 in Egersund. Based on birth of his siblings, I believe the family moved from Egersund to Nordre Hetland (in Ogna) and then to Sandnes in Høyland. His father, Torjer Torjersen Egelandsdal (father from Heskestad), died at Sandnes in 1905.Gabriel and his wife, Maria, emigrated to the US in 1893 (arrived NYC 22 Jun, ship 'Italia'). The manifest lists their residence as Stavanger.In the 1900 US Census, his wife is called Christine Marie, born May 1869. They have been married 7 years (ca 1893).The only other clue I have is that in the 1920 US Census, Marie's mother is living with them. She is listed as 'Raul' Ericksen, a widow, born ca 1841, who immigrated in 1901.Be aware that years of birth & immigration listed in the US Census are often inaccurate by a year or more.I have searched parish registers for Stavanger and Sandnes for 1891-1893, looking for their marriage, but found nothing.I would greatly appreciate any advice...Hilsen Patti Mikkelsen

LenkeI will try to find out more. You have no idea what is the last name of the wife Maria? Is it possible to find out when she died, and out of that find her last name, birth date and place ...?Do you know where they emigrated from? Stavanger? Kristiansand?

Hei Erling, thank you for responding! Yes, this is the family.I could not find an emigration record on the DA. But I did find their arrival in the US. Here is a link to the manifest image (I hope this link works):LenkeIt states the port of departure was Kristiansand, but I checked the emigration database for this port (on the DA) and did not find them.In the death record for one of Gabriel & Maria's children, it shows mother's birth name as Erickson. This matches the last name of the woman listed as 'mother-in-law' living with the family in 1920. But I can't make out her first name. I think the person who transcribed the census is wrong that it is 'Raul'. That does not sound like a woman's name to me.Most of the death indexes I can access show only date of death and maybe (if I am lucky) a date of birth. I have not located her death record. But in the 1900 Census, it shows 'May 1869' as her date of birth.I'm running out of ideas, and will greatly appreciate any advice or assistance.Hilsen Patti

Erling & Inger!I do appreciate all your searching. I think that is Marie who died before 1930. Because Gabriel is a widower living with his daughter & her husband in 1930. I was frustrated that I couldn't find the family in 1910. Because I thought maybe Marie's father might still be alive then. Or maybe her mother came to America as a widow.Anyway, it seems she was born either Marie Christine or Christine Marie Eriksen in Norway about May 1869. She and Gabriel were married about 1893 in Norway and resided in Stavanger shortly before emigrating to the US. I thought if I could find their marriage, I would know more about her. But I have searched every municipality I can think of, including Stavanger, Sandnes, Eigersund & Christiansand. I tried to attach a copy of the 1920 Census image here so you could see her mother's name. I don't think it's 'Raul', but can't figure out what it is... or what it is supposed to be.I don't know where else to look.Again, thank you all for your kind assistance...mvh Patti

Here is that image from 1920 (I cropped it down to just the family). Also, I found the family in a state census in 1905, and Marie's mother is listed there as 'Karen Erickson'!

[Kristiansand? Kristiansund? Kristiania?]So far, I haven't had much luck with this information, though...Hilsen Patti

I have little time here at Statsarkivet in Stavanger, but I found in a list that Gabriel Torgersen Egelandsdahl and Mina Marie Eriksen married at the Noptarus Publicus, see no XV 174.If you would like to, you could contact the Statsarkivet i Stavanger by email and ask them to find more accurate info.
