Andrew Solie

[gj10647]

Family not certain where Andrew (Andreas/Anders?) came from in Norway. Supposedly he was born in 1837 (March 19), emigrated in 1872, used Solie for his last name in USA. Married in Wisconsin a woman who had emigrated from Germany, he died November 20, 1917.

Any chance that he can be found?

Thank you for all your help.
