Edvard Jensen Trondheim 1840-1866

[Robert Jensen]

Edvard was one of eight people drowned on march 10 1866. The deaths are recorded at Sletta and Dolm. I would like to locate his grave to visit this summer. Any help would be appreciated. His home church was Bakke Bakklandet. Takk  Robert Jensen

Like most of the graves from 1866, most probably this grave too, if there has been one, has been deleted many years ago.

The listing in the church registry (number 20) states that he is lost at sea and there is no funeral date. So they probably didn’t have a corpse to bury.

Thanks so much Anita. I haven't been able to read or transcribe any of the handwriting. I would like  to know what happened that day and why he was there. It will probably remain a mystery.
