[#83767] Björke gård - Eidsvoll

[Gjest Robert L. Evensen]

I am trying to learn more about the farm Björke in Eidsvoll. In Aug 1830 Jens Erdman Johannesen is born there to Johannes Pedersen and Marthe Pedersdatter. Later they leave for Ullensaker. I am hoping to learn whether Johannes Pedersen is Johannes Petterson Nyqvist born in Sweden and emigrated to Eidsvoll in 1807. The Ullensaker bygdebok does not give enough information on the family for me to answer this question.

[Gjest Wenche Örbeck Kristiansen]

Hi Robert! Where did you found this Jens born?

[Gjest Robert L. Evensen]

On his marriage record 28 oct 1857 in Ullensaker, Akershus, It says born Bjerke, Eidsv. I am assuming the farm is now called Björke or Bjørke

Tusen takk for hjelpen me. You may be right. It is difficult to tell as Johannes Pedersen Nyqvist did not arrive in Eidsvold until 1807, so he is not in the 1801 census. The family moved to Eidsvold Werk which is very close to the Bjerke farm. The child in the census is born around 1799, so the date is close.You have given me an idea. Perhaps there are others with the name Pedersen Bjerke in the communion records. They may be relatives. I know the names of the siblings of Johannes Pedersen Nyqvist. I will continue searching there. Thanks again for all your work.Robert

I think you have solved the mystery. One of the sponsors for Karen Margrethe is Christopher Pedersen from Eidsvoll. That must be the brother of Johannes Pedersen who is in the 1801 census. So this person is probably not Johannes Pedersen Nyqvist. :-( I see no names that match the family of Johannes Pedersen Nyqvist.Robert

[Gjest Gunn Huglen]

Glad if I solved the Mystery ;-)Best regards from Gunn.
