Halvor O. Welkos

[gj10647]

Trying to locate the birth/baptism record for Halvor O. Welkos. He emigrated to USA in the 1840s but the family in USA have no idea where he is from in Norway. He lived in Wisconsin with his wife Tiny or Tiney Nilson. According to death records he was born in March of 1819.
I know it is a long shot but need help.

Thank you so much.
