In the meantime, I have made contact with my other great-uncle's family in Canada. It is so exciting. The funny thing is that by finding them in British Columbia we found new relatives who lived down the road from my grandmother in Norway. My father and I had a chuckle about having to find relatives through Canada rather than his own family in Norway. They are descendants of Margit Jordbaerhaugen, sister to my great-grandfather Kristian, and my great-uncles Kristen and Nels who both came to America.
More soon! And now for the Wordless Wednesday part:
Sletta, my grandmother's childhood home in Baerum, Norway
Us British Columbians have all the answers don't we? Lol.
ReplyDeleteI am glad you found some new info.
You will be surprised at what you can find once you get organized.
Of course that should have said "We" British Columbians. Ooops.
