What you wrote:
The birthdate on his Death Certificate is June 15, 1872
Place of birth Bergen Norway.

My cousin and I both used to hear that our Grandfather in Norway was a clocksmith.

We also heard he'd immigrated before or after a sister.

Those are all good hints that perhaps the Mortensen in Bergen is the correct one. The birthdate and place of birth are especially promising, with the clocksmith /watchmaker such a good added piece.

Does any of the correspondence from Norway that your family received exist anymore, or give any hints?
