Canadaeksperter. Finner ikke 5 søsken fra Brandbu som utv.

[Ole P. Gamme]

Hei. I Hadeland Lag of Americas biografibok fra 1920 er 5 søsken født på garden Rossum/Raassum i Brandbu omtalt.

1. Anders Olsen f. 13.7.1888 utv. 30.3.1907. Var først i Balfour, McHenry Co., ND, fra 1909 i Seven Persons, Alberta. Farmer og Snekker for Jernbanen. Var med i 1. Verdenskrigen.

2. Marius, f. 16.10.1889, utv. 20.7.1906 til ND. Var i Balfour, ND i 1910, kalles Morris Rossum. Ser ut til å være Manitoba, Sask. and Alberta i 1916. oppgitt til å være i Medicine Hat. Alberta i 1920.

3. Nils, f. 18.5.1891, utv. 20.7.1906 til ND. Var i Balfour, ND i 1910, kalles Nels Rossum. Ser ut til å være i Manitoba, Sask. and Alberta i 1916. Oppgitt til å være i Church Ferry, ND ca. 1920.

4. Valborg, f. 5.4.1893, utv. 25.5.1912 til ND. Oppgitt i boka til å være i Church Ferry, ND ca. 1920.

5. Torgeir, f. 23.8.1895, utv. 8.6.1912 til ND. Oppgitt i boka til å være i Seven Persons, Alberta ca. 1920.

Jeg har ikke klart å finne de senere, ev. giftemål, barn eller dødsdato. Foreldrene, Ole A. Rossum, f. 20.12.1860 og Anne Lise Torgersdtr., f. 27.12.1864 solgte garden i 1911 og flyttet til Nesodden med barna. Her skal Ole ha dødd 15.7.1914. En kilde sier at Anne Lise utv. senere, men jeg har ikke funnet noen utreise for henne. Ole og Anne Lises andre barn:

6. Magnhild, f. 5.5.1897, 7. Ingeborg, f. 19.5.1899, 8. Ove f. 23.11.1901, 9. Arnt, f. 12.12.1903, 10. Sverre, f. 16.11.1906 og 11. Knut f. 10.2.1910. I folketellingen 1910 i Brandbu har alle familiemedlemmene feil fødselsdag. Merkelig! Disse 6 siste barna er i biografiboka oppgitt å bo i Norge ca. 1920. Mvh. Ole.

Jeg kan ikke svare på det du spør om, men jeg lurer på: Finnes boken du nevner i nettversjon, eller kan den lånes på noe bibliotek?

Tusen takk til dere alle. Jeg blir overveldet over all hjelp som blir gitt her på Digitalarkivet. Jeg har nå fått bra opplysninger om Anders, Nils og Torgeir + at også broren Ove har ankommet New York i 1948 og skulle videre til Edmonton, Alberta.

Jeg har prøvd å finne Valborg på Ancestry uten resultat, har hun brukt det navnet burde hun være mulig å finne også som gift. Dersom noen vil bli medlem i Hadeland Lag of America, kan jeg ordne det dersom navn og postadresse blir sendt til meg. Kontaktforum Hadeland-Amerika holder orden på medlemmene i Norge og sender ut medlemsavisen 4 ganger året. Medlemmene vil få passord og får da tilgang til alt slekts materiale på hjemmesiden.

Så er Mrs. Nels Rossum i Alberta i 1940 og Knut Rossum i Alberta i 1965. Dette må vel da bety at også Arnt, f. 12.12.1906 og Knut, f. 10.2.1910 har emigrert. Da er det bare Sverre, f. 16.11.1906 som ikke er funnet av brødrene. Mvh. Ole.

Håper det er greit at jeg svarer på engelsk, er det for vanskelig for meg å gjøre alt dette på norsk.

 

The mother, Anne Elise ROSSUM died 17 June 1943 in Edmonton, Alberta and is buried in Edmonton Cemetery, may also be called 107^th Avenue Cemetery.  I have attached Anne Elise’s obituary published in the Edmonton Journal, June 21, 1943.

 

1.      Anders Olsen, known here as Andrew Olsen ROSSUM – died 27 June 1968 in Edmonton, Alberta and is buried Edmonton Cemetery. I have attached his obituary published in the Edmonton Journal, June 28, 1968.  Here is a link http://www.albertaonrecord.ca/is-jas-pa+98-606 to the Archives Society of Alberta site for the Jasper Yellowhead Museum and Archives records.  There is a photograph taken circa 1940 of Andrew ROSSUM in Jasper, Alberta.  This is a photograph in a photographer’s collection which is now in the Jasper Yellowhead Museum and Archives.  There is a short paragraph of information about Andrew ROSSUM.  I have also attached a single page with the obituaries for Andrew’s widow, Mary ROSSUM and his daughter, Sadie DUNN.  You can access both of these though the Calgary Herald website at http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/calgaryherald/ Go to ‘Advanced Search’ and search with their names and select ‘All time’ in the date.

 

2.      Marius, known as Moras or Morris ROSSUM - died and is buried according to one source in the Ebeneezer-Salem Cemetery near Seven Persons-Orion, Alberta or according to another source in Valleyview Cemetery, Foremost, Alberta. There is a reference to his burial Ebeneezer-Salem Cemetery at http://www.ourfutureourpast.ca/loc_hist/page.aspx?id=269711  Perhaps Medicine Hat Branch of Alberta Genealogical Society can find Marius’ death date and exact burial location.  You can reach them at http://mhdgs.ca/queries.html

 

3.      Nils, known as Nels ROSSUM – died 6 July 1968 and is buried in Hillside Cemetery, Medicine Hat, Alberta.  The Hillside Cemetery, Medicine Hat website Burial Listings are at http://www.medicinehat.ca/index.aspx?page=1093 And I think Perhaps Medicine Hat Branch of Alberta Genealogical Society may be able to provide you with Nels’ obituary and perhaps more information about him.  You can reach them at http://mhdgs.ca/queries.html

 

4.      Valborg married to Ole Mathias NERLAND, known as Valborg or Walberg NERLAND – died 10 May 1979.  Ole Mathias NERLAND – died 26 September 1969.  Both Valborg and Ole are buried in Hillside Cemetery, Medicine Hat, Alberta.  The Hillside Cemetery, Medicine Hat website Burial Listings are at http://www.medicinehat.ca/index.aspx?page=1093 And I think perhaps Medicine Hat Branch of Alberta Genealogical Society may be able to provide you with Ole and Valborg’s obituaries and perhaps more information about them.  You can reach them at http://mhdgs.ca/queries.html

 

 

5.      Torgeir, as someone else has told you died in Oregon, USA.  He is known as Torgeir in his mother’s 1943 obituary, Torger in Andrew’s 1968 obituary and Ted in Knute’s 1971 obituary so I would suggest you look for him with all 3 of those names.

 

6.      Magnhild stayed in Norway.

7.      Ingeborg stayed in Norway

 

8.      Ove – died 14 July 1979 in Edmonton, Alberta and is buried Edmonton Cemetery. I have attached his obituary published in the Edmonton Journal, July 16, 1979.

 

9.       Arnt, known in a number of records as Art ROSSUM or Arnt Olsen ROSSUM – died in 1994, perhaps 13 February 1994.  He was married to Catherine, known as Kay, nee FAZIO, who died in 1995.  I can not find  burial places for either of them in the records I have found but the Alberta Family Histories Society, in Calgary, Alberta can provide you with their obituaries and perhaps more information about them.  AFHS is at http://www.afhs.ab.ca/   There is information on the Art and Kay ROSSUM family in the local history book [lit like din bygdebok] Leavings by trail, Granum by Rail which you can find at http://www.ourfutureourpast.ca/loc_hist/page.aspx?id=3749477

 

10.  Sverre, known as Sam or Samuel ROSSUM – died 17 April 1980 in Edmonton, Alberta and is buried Edmonton Cemetery. I have attached his obituary published in the Edmonton Journal, April 17, 1980.  [i think there may be a mistake in Sam’s death date as it is very unusual for an obituary to be published the same day as the death occurred.]

 

11.   Knut, known as Knute ROSSUM – died 11 October 1971 and is buried in the Field of Honour [Military section] Edmonton Cemetery.  I have attached his obituary published in the Edmonton Journal, October 13 1971.

 

There are some references to the ROSSUMs in some Local History Books [lit like din bygdebok], which you can access through the Our Future, Our Past, Alberta Heritage Digitization Project website at http://www.ourfutureourpast.ca/index.html

 

You can find the Edmonton Cemetery listings for Anne Elise, Andrew, Ove, Sam and Knute at http://webproxy.edmonton.ca/external/cemeteries/default.aspx

Dear Adele. This was excellent! Thank you very much. You are a gold mine! I will update the family skjema about this large family, a family I knew little about before getting help here at Digitalarkivet. Tusen takk igjen. Mvh. Ole.

[Adele Goa]

Jeg har nettopp funnet en kirkegård rekord for en Morris RASSUM, som jeg mistenker er din Marius ROSSUM, i Valley View Lutheran Cemetery, i Seven Persons, Alberta på Find A Grave på: http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GScid=2477481&GRid=102377921&  Jeg tror dette er det samme som Valleyview Cemetery ved Froremost, Alberta, som jeg fant tidligere.

 

Now you have one more name for Marius.  Stakkars han.

 

Kanskje Medicine Hat Branch of Alberta Genealogical Society kan finne Marius dødsdato og eksakte funnstedet. Du kan nå dem en http://mhdgs.ca/queries.html

Takk igjen, Adele. Jeg er sikker på at dette er Marius. Familien har brukt Raassum, Råssum, Rossum og Rassum som etternavn. Av søskenflokken på 11, døde 8 i Canada, en i Oregon, søsteren Magnhild, f. 5.5.1897, gift med L. Bø, fant jeg gravlagt på Kolbotn, Akershus, død 22.11.1988. Mangler bare søsteren Ingeborg, f.19.5.1899 som er oppgitt gift med K. Bjerkamp ?? i Norge. Finner ingen med det navnet, så det er antakelig feil skrevet. Takk igjen, Adele. Du skriver jo perfekt norsk, er du født i Rogaland? Mvh. Ole.

Det var flott, Vibeke! Tusen takk. Ingeborg døde 21.5.1973, hun var gift med Kaare Bjerkomp, f. 29.4.1907, død 1.11.1966. Da har vi  fått registrert alle 11 barna og foreldrene som solgte gården og flyttet fra Brandbu i 1911 til Nesodden. Mvh. Ole.

Hei Ole,

After finding a date for the death of Marius on Find A Grave I looked in newspaper archives on Our Future Our Past at http://www.ourfutureourpast.ca/home.htm  I found 3 obituaries for him which I have attached.

 

All 3 show that Morris ROSSUM died 6 September 1920 in Calgary, Alberta.  I suspect the 10 September 1920 date in Find A grave was the date he was buried.  I entered some edits on the Find A Grave record which may appear there if the person chooses to accept my edits.

 

The 2 obituaries in the Calgary Daily Herald online are very difficult to read so I entered a text version on the one from Sept. 7, 1920.  A friend looked for and found a much better copy of the Sept. 8, 1920 obituary on microfilm at Archives, scanned and sent it to me.  That is the one attached here.  It is very legible so I have not entered it in text. 

 

Jeg er så glad du fant Magnhild og Ingeborg. Det er alltid så godt når du finner hele familien.

 

Jeg ble født i Canada, men min far vokste opp i Stavanger og området. Både farmor og farfar ble født i Rogaland. Min mor var en Hedmark jente.

Tusen takk for all hjelp til å finne opplysninger om denne familien, og spesielt til deg, Adele. Også så flott at en som er født i Canada har lært seg norsk helt perfekt. Jeg kjenner en tidligere professor på Concordia College i Moorhead, MN, født 1933. Det var hans oldeforeldre som utvandret fra Norge, og i hjemmet hadde de bare snakket norsk i 4 generasjoner etter utvandringen. Da han begynte på skolen var han så dårlig i engelsk at han måtte gå første klasse to ganger! Men, som hans oldemor brukte å si, norsk er God's Language! Mvh. Ole.

Anders (Andy) Rossum was my grandfather.  Sadie Dunn was my mother.  I don't understand Norwegian but stumbled across this page.
