Erlend Erlendsen (Ellen Ellensen), f 1844 i Flå, død i USA

[dn34713]

Hvor ble det av Erlend Erlendsen, f. 1844 i Flå? Han utvandret i 1889 til USA med kone og fire sønner. Merk at han (og faren) har navnet Ellen Ellensen i kirkebøkene.

Erlend Erlendsen er omtalt i Bygdeboka for Flå bind I side 466.

Erlend Erlandsen Hansbråten f.1800 d.1857 g 1835 m Mari Palmesdatter f.1811 d 1858
Barn:
1. Kirsti Erlendsdatter f.1835 d.1887 g 1871 i Norderhov

2. Brynhild Erlendsdatter f. 1839 d i Amerika. Til Amerika 1861

3. Erlend Erlendsen f. 1844 d. i Amerika

4. Kari Erlendsdatter f. 1847 d. i Amerika Til Amerika i 1889

5. Ragne Erlandsdatter f. 1850, var i 1865 på Nordgarden Sønsteby som legdslem


Erlend: Gift i 1874 m Helene Gulliksdatter Lindelien f 1849
Barn:
Edvart Erlandsen f. 1875 død i Amerika

Ola Erlandsen f 1878 død i Amerika
Gudbrand Erlandsen f. 1881 død i Amerika
Olaf Erlandsen f 1884 d i Amerika

I 1889 bodde de på Lekneshaugen, holdt da auksjon. Fikk samme året attest til Amerika med de 4 sønnene.

Jeg finner de utflyttingen og de fire sønnene i kirkeboken:

Utflyttede til USA, nr. 15 - 21 :

Fødselen til de fire guttene til Ellen/Erlend:

Edvard
Nr. 1 http://urn.digitalarkivet.no/URN:NBN:no ... 010293.jpg
Ole
Nr. 7 http://urn.digitalarkivet.no/URN:NBN:no ... 010328.jpg

Olaf

Hvor ble de av? Familien i Norge mistet kontakten med dem. Stiftet guttene familie i USA?
