Looking for family in Lillestrøm

[Dag T. Hoelseth]

Ah ... Arne Olsen. elder brother of Rolf, seems to have settled in the United Kingdom. He married a Vera May Gentry in 1944 and died in Kent on 7 May 1990, cf. a family tree at Ancestry.com, https://www.ancestry.com/family-tree/person/tree/152578136/person/182193053702/facts?_phsrc=QKk762&_phstart=successSource

Death announcement of Arne Olsen in Chatham, Rochester, Gillingham (Chatham, Kent, England) · 18 May 1990, Fri · Page 8

 

 

Of course there could be more than one Arne and Vera combination, but I think it is the right Arne Olsen (correct birth date and all). Marie, I could send a message to the family tree owner if you don't have access to Ancestry.com yourself

Yes, that would be great if you could send them a message. I can give you my email address too if they respond favourably. Thank you. 

How sad that my father had a brother living in the UK too and yet as far as I am aware, they had no connection.

Message sent. Will come back to you if I hear anything from her. I might try to find details about Rolf's other siblings, but right now I have to finish some other genealogical business ... 🙂

Dag, from the Ancestry-tree and information added there Arne's daughter seems to be Eileen Olsen, and she also seems to have been married two times (two plus two children).

[Dag T. Hoelseth]

Thanks, Gisle, I must have overlooked that detail. Anyway, I will wait and see if the tree owner gets back to me. I provided a link to this thread so that she can join the exchange if she wants to.

 

Now, what about the other siblings…

Can anyone tell me what ‘Tutta’ means in the death notice for Solveig Marie?

As always, thank you for your help.

[Anne Hildrum]

Tutta is a nickname, and she was most likely called Tutta in daily life.

For years I have been trying to find any info on Arne's family and always come to a dead end. So this is very exciting to see this forum.
