Re: Olga and Florence Larsen - sisters /orphans from Boston back to Norway.

Here is some more information I just found. The mother's name was Mariane Neeraas, b.1871, Kristiansund -d.1908, Boston.

Olga and Florence Larsen - sisters /orphans from Boston back to Norway.

ericdowneast — 2009-11-09 21:37:52Z

I am looking for any information regarding two sisters named Olga Larsen and Florence Larsen, both born in Chelsea, Massachusetts. (b-1892 and b-1899) Parents: Edward Larsen and Mariane Neros? (Alt name Mary A Naros?) Both parents died and children became orphans sometime around 1901-1908. The male children Peter (b-1894) and Oscar (b-1896) remained in America but both girls were sent back to Norway and may have lived near Kristiansund N. One may have maried into last name like Brask?
I do know that the mother, Mariane and children Olga and Peter, made a round trip to Kristiansund Norway in 1895. I also know that Edward and Mariane came to Boston from Kristiansune in 1892 with a Ludvig Larsen (b-1970). (Don't know the relation to this person but they had consecutive tickets.) This may have been a honeymoon trip for Edward and Mariane as they were married in that year. Not sure if marriage was in Norway or Massachusetts.
I would also like to find more information on the girls' parents Edward Larsen (1863-1901) and Mariane (1872-1908) who died in Boston, and where in Norway they came from.
Any help would be apreciated.
Thank you, Eric Larsen

Linda,
Look for descendents of Lauritz Johansen b.1794 Denmark and Anna Margrette Sorensen b. 1797 Denmark. They both died in Spring City, Sanpete, Utah. Had a bunch of children (my 2ggfather was their son Christian John Larsen) I don't recognize your Larsen names, but it may be that they are descendents of Lauritz and Anna. Good Luck.

Anders Larsen

janbollish — 2009-06-25 22:34:51Z

My great grandfather Anders Larsen was born on the Ulvillen Farm. The last name Bogseth was chosen for him probably because his ancestors were from the Bygset Farm at Namdalseid possibly Beistad Parish. Anders was born Jan 6, 1816 and died Nov 1893. He married Anne Haldorsdatter Nov 1840. I have seen queries about Ulvillen Farm. Would like more information about that as well as other farms like Ostgrinden, Holmsvald, Dillanvald and Nedreholmsvald where my grandfather was born. Thanks to you all.

Re: Larsen Family Tree

lfulkers_1 — 2009-08-08 11:48:32Z

Although my Larsen family was from Copenhagen, Denmark and I don't believe that this matches with your tree, I do admit that I know very little about either my Grandmother's, who was a Larsen, or my Grandfather's, who was also named Larsen's families other than them both being born in Denmark and they came to America from Denmark. By the way he was born in 1881 and she in 1888.
I'm sorry but they don't look to me that they fit in with your family.
Have you gone to Roots Web or Genealogy.com to leave note's for the Larsen name? I have seen quite a few Larsens from Norway on there.

Renville County, Minnesota, USA - Larsen

NKLarson55 — 2009-04-15 13:41:58Z

I have been searching for the death certificate for Erik Larsen (born approx. 1814 in Norway) - unfortunately I don't KNOW the date of death. I thought he died in Chippewa County, but it could have been Renville. A family member believes he died November 17, 1891 - no record of that in Chippewa - does anyone have access to those records in Renville? A biography published about his son Lewis (Polk County, MN) in 1916 states that Erick's wife Kerstin was still alive in 1916 - "having survived her husband some 14 years" - which would make me believe Erik died some time around 1900 - I believe the family is buried in Saron Cemetery under a common "Larson" marker - can anyone help?

Take a look at the manifest for the Oscar II arr Nov 15 1910 pg. 23. It lists Soren and some of his siblings going to Ruskin Nebraska, but interestingly does not list their parents. I did find the birth register for Soren Alfred Larsen March 7, 1900(also records for Christen, Ahlmann, Mathilda and Axel) which lists the parents as Jens Christen Larsen and Inger Marie Nielsen of Taars Sogn, Hjorring Amt. Denmark.
I can email you copies of the birth registers if you think this might be the right person.

She was active in her earlier years as a member of Bethany Lutheran Church, a member of the women's group and a Sunday school teacher for many years.

In the early 1990's, she and her husband moved to West Branch and sold their farm.

He was always ready to help his neighbor with shocking oats, threshing, haying, making repairs or other work that needed to be done and always got help in return as well.

He was a lifelong 'shutterbug', and enjoyed taking photos, developing his own negatives and making his own enlargements, both for himself and occasionally for others. He was official photographer for a number of weddings in the area and served for a number of years as the Cedar County Historical Society photographer. He took photos for others on special occasions, including passports and special events or celebrations. He also copied and preserved aging photos for other people.

He served as an advisor for the West Branch Shutterbugs, a school age camera club that included his son and a number of other young men, teaching them the techniques of camera and darkroom work. He was a member of the University Camera Club in Iowa City for many years and a member of the North Central Conference of Camera Clubs, through which he won many awards for his photos.
