I am looking for any of the family of Hans (Pedersen) changed to (Peterson).
Hans was Born May 31, 1849 in Grusjolien, Eidskog, Hedmark Norway. He was a carpenter. His mother was Berte Hansdatter and his father was Peder Hansen. He had one older brother Herman born 1846.
He lived with relatives after his mother died in 1853. The farm name was Harstad and other names mentioned are Kvist, Rambolmyren, Kulblik, and Klanerud.
His father remarried and had more children with an Anne Haggensdatter.
Han's married Marie Hansdatter born 1858 later changed to (Mary) Her parents are Hans Cypriansen and Karen Christiansdatter
Han's and Mary Married in Eidskog Dec 26, 1875.
They had one child Bastian born Sept 14, 1877 before they moved from Norway Aug 1880.
They lived in Minnesota and had a total of 8 living children.
Bastian, Henry, Olga Pauline, Hilda Dixie, Clara, Harry, Clarence(My grandpa) and Mable.
Bastian and Harry Died young and are buried in Minnesota.
Han's family moved to California sometime after 1903.
Marie (Mary) was writing to family members in Norway as late as 1936. We still have one letter from her sister Thea.
Hans came to America after his brother Herman immigrated. They met up in Canby Mn. and Herman later moved to Washington State where I believe he is buried. Herman had a large family. They never had contact after they parted back east.
Any information at all is greatly appreciated!
I have pictures of Han's and family if you would like to see them. We would welcome any and all contact and would love to share our info. Thanks
