[#79070] Great Grandparents from where in Norway?

[Gjest Eric Benson]

Bertrin Marcelos Berenson (Benson) and Johanna M. Larson came to the USA in 1870 and married in 1875 according to the US Census/Marraige records. I can't find any ship records of them coming to the US. They lived in the Madison Wisconsin USA area. Can anyone help(hjelp) me find where in Norway they came from? I am at a dead end and could really appreciate the help. Thanks.

[Gjest Hanne Line Osberg Eide]

Yes, Lars Ove. The Bertin you found seems to match, both name, age and emigration year.

His parents are Barend Mathias Brynhildsen og wife Gurine Iversdatter. They lived at Pedersgjorde (farm?).

[Gjest Hanne Line Osberg Eide]

May be this is Berthins mother and siblings. This Gurine is a widow. Her children (living with her) is Imanuel, Iver and Berent. Lenke
