Looking for the parents of Johan and his wife Inga.They lived in Trondheim to the middle of 1920.Moved to Aalesund.All help is appreciated. Sverre H.Sponaas.

You will find a fam.tree at this adress http://home.online.no/~oddkp/aner/130.html I used AltaVista and Johan Arnt Hansen. You will find him in Strinda in 1875.

I dont think the Johan Arnt you found, Berit, is the right one. The Johan Arnt Grande in question was born in 1872. This is the right one: Grande 1900Laila

Hello Berit Knudsen.Thank you for your effort.I checked the homepage you told me about,but sad to say,rigth names,wrong people.Johan Arnt and his wife Inga died in Aalesund in -38 and the -40s.They left Trondheim in the mid-20s,after their three firstborn died.Another girl,Inger Johanna,married Harry Blindheim in Aalesund before they left for Seattle.A second girl,Aase,married Arvid Bjornsund.Aase is still living in Aalesund.A third girl married a Haugen. I am still looking for more info.Again,thank you.Sverre.

Hi Sverre! Sorry to give you negative results, there were no Johan Arnt mentioned on Grande farm on Ørlandet. Laila

[Gjest Berit Knudsen]

Maybe his name was Johan Arntsen. In 1865 on Grande farm Ørlandet there is one Arnt.

As in my earlier message, Johan Arnt b. 1872 in the bygdebok.I have checked out the church-record for Ørlandet, and found Johan Arnt born (illegitimate) of parents living on Brekstad/Bragstad. Will post info tomorrow. His Grande name was not from his parents.... Laila
