.. Har ikke funnet Siri utreist fra Kristiansand, og Stavanger er jo rekonstruert grunnet politistasjonen brant 1929.Hun er født i Sirdal men foreldrne flyttet på 1890 tallet til Odden i Nes nå Flekkefjord og senere til Rogaland. Der var også to brødre som reiste til USA Torkel Gunnarson (Odden) f 1874,han kom tilbake.Og så den yngste Gunnar Gunderson f 1877,han døde tidlig,ugift.Tror alle søskenene var født i Ådneram i Sirdal,og det er søsken til min bestemor. Siri sin ektefelle skal etter tradisjonen ha kommet i fra Åseral VAgder. Mest sansynlig var vel at de reiste fra Stavanger,men der gikk vel sporadisk skip fra Egersund ,Flekkefjord , Farsund og Kristiansand

Lurer litt på denne familien. Sarah er skrevet Siri i 1910-census. Gust Lavold - kan det være Gunnar?

Takk !

Det er ikke umulig at hun er funnet. Oldefar Gunnar Torkildsen flyttet til Odden på Lavoll ved Flekkefjord,så det er ikke umulig at sønnen brukte navnet Lavoll som navn.

[Hanne Line Osberg Eide]

California Death Index i innlegg #3 gir vel tydelig bekreftelse på at det er rett person som er funnet.

Jeg skjønner ikke, hva du ikke skjønner.

 

Hvis det er det med Siri i parantes, så vet jeg ikke hvorfor det står.

 

 

Men hvis du ikkje skjønner forbindelsen fra John Torgersesen og til din Siri, så sliter vi. :)

[Sigbjørn Sandsmark]

Kan det være slik at Siri giftet seg med ENKEMANN John ,og at hans første kone var død ?

John Torjeison Rauåstøl,f 1856,g i Norge13.12. 1878. med Tora Olsdatter ,f 17.9.1853 Ousdal.Sirdal. Ser nå at Tora vel må være død 1881.
