[#71171] Jakob Knutson Aga

[Gjest Randi Jansdatter Boldevin]

Jakob (Jacob) Knutson Aga f. 4/12-1873 i Ullensvang emigrerte til USA 16. april 1896. Han dro med et Cunard skip fra Bergen via Hull og Liverpool, og han reiste sammen med Sigrid Larsdatter Aga, f. 8/2-1880. Iflg. opplysningene døde han ikke lenger etter at han ankom USA. Vet noen der ute noe om ham etter ankomst, hvor/når han døde, rakk han å gifte seg, barn? Takknemlig for svar.
