Thank you to everyone who wrote to me about Jense Bergitha Fredricha Fredriksdatter ~ I would like to know what happened to her first husband Johan Kristian Jakobsen? Do records show he died?What happened to her son Oluf Amagnus Mathisen,his wife Helmine? I believe they came to America in 1881 but can not find them in America. What name did they use leaving Norway to come to America?Do records show Jense had more children by her husbands?When did Jense and Ole Pedersen Moe divorce and do records show the reason for her divorce?

There are more about the family, but I don't have time to copy it now. But only Karl born 1876 is in the tree. Karl got 3 children.

[Gjest Margaret Miller]

I find these children in Tromsø. All are in the Baptistmenighet book except Thora Hilmine born 19/2 1879. She is baptized in the regular church book. Oluf Martinus f. 23/2 1873 d. 1878; Einar Cornelius f. 24/6 1874; Carl Johan f. 19/6 1876; Thorvald Amagnus f. 6/2 1878 d. Mai 1878; Oluf Martinus f. 6/1 1881.I see the family with all their Norwegian names 1885 in Sanders Twp., Polk Co. MN. He is O.A.Mathison. They now have a son John born 1884.I see in 1900 the family of Erik Hourd. Wife Minnie born Jan. 1854 (right). Son John Mathison born March 1884, and their children Henry Hourd born 1892, Minton born 1893, and Lilly born 1896. This can be them.What is your tie to the family? I know a lot about the place Jense Fredrika came from. I don't know the answers to your questions in answer # 6.

[Gjest Margaret Miller]

Here is some info from a descendant named Elaine: I only knew of Einar who became Amer, Charlie, my granddad, or Carl Johan; Thora Hilmine (called Minnie, married name of Shetler). Oluf may have become Oliver, if so, he was shot & killed in a poker game in Greenbush, MN. Uncle John (married to Ida Lillemoen) lived 10 miles from Charlie's ranch, which was 31 miles east of Big Sandy, MT., later moved to Hamilton, MT. My mother is Charlie's first born child. I am traveling to Thief River Falls this summer to visit the cemetary where Mina & Oluf & Mr. Hoard are buried. My mother's name was Minnie also, after her grandmother.

[Gjest Margaret Miller]

Arlene: I found a descendent of Carl Johan (Charlie). She would like me to send you her address: Elaine's address is pandemaxey@comcast.netShe would like to hear from you.

This is an answer to Margaret Miller's question~What is my tie to the family of Jense? My son-in-law's great great great grandmother, Johana Randine Fredriksdatter was Jense youngest sister. The family was from Tjøtta. Jense moved from Tjøtta to Tromsø. Johana's family did not know about Jense and her life in Tromsø, Bodø and her son Oluf Amagnus Mathisen. Johana had a daughter, Lovise who came to America. Oluf and Lovise's descendents probably did not know about each other till you all have answered some of my questions.
