Vigsle i Amerika, truleg Cavalier Co., ND, kring 1883 - er denne mogeleg å finna?

[Lars E. Øyane]

Eg er på leiting etter ei vigsle frå Amerika, rimelegvis frå Cavalier Co., ND:

 

Johannes Anderson Tredahl alias John A. DAHL, fødd i Sunndal 15.10.1851, utvandra i 1876

 

og

Grethe Hansdotter Øvrebø alias Gretta H. OVERBOE, fødd i Hafslo 31.10.1857, utvandra i 1882

 

Dei skal ha gift seg i 1882 eller 1883, rimelegvis i Cavalier Co., ND der dei slo seg ned som farmarar i Alma township.

 

Eldste barnet var:

 

* Anton Johan DAHL, fødd i Cavalier Co., ND 14.5.1884
 

Eg takkar so mykje på førehand for alle gode tips om denne vigsli!

Hjarteleg takk til Ann-Mary for interessant innlegg!

 

Eg har nok sett denne biografien for Dahl-ætti før, og diverre fortel han ikkje kva dato eller stad denne vigsli fann stad!  Eg har òg undersøkt både kyrkjebøker og "vital records" i Cavalier Co., ND, men dei går ikkje langt nok attende i tid!  Tidsrommet me her talar om, 1882/1883, er i den absolutte pionertidi når det gjeld Cavalier Co., ND, og det var nok diverre "so som so" med å skriva opp alt som skjedde...  Dei kan jo òg ha gift seg ein heilt anna stad...

 

Eg takkar nok ein gong for hjelpi, men eg fryktar for at me lyt venta svært lenge på at denne datoen skal dukka opp, om han dukkkar opp i det heile...
