Where is Kristi (Kristine Peterson's) marriage to Sveinsson Slettevik recorded?

[Merle Nostbakken]

Thank you very much for answering my previous question regarding the birthdate of Kirstine (Kirsti) Svensdatter's exact birthdate so thoroughly. Kirstine (born 1848) married Tørris Peterson in 1866 at Valenstrand parish before they travelled to America. They arrived in Iowa in 1867; however, Tørris and his brother, Mathias, died in 1867 and 1868, respectively, and are buried in Boe Cemetery near Christytown, Hamilton County, Iowa.

 

In your response to me, you mentioned that Kirstine then married Sveinsson Slettevik in America. I am wondering where that information is recorded since I have searched the USA census and Marriage data with no success.

Thank you in advance for sharing this information with me.
