Can anyone help me find out any information about my Great Grandparents?

Ole Johnson Rodberg (born 15 July 1848) and Emma A. Abel (name on my
grandmother's birth certificate) (but the name "Simjana Rodberg" is on my
grandmother's death certificate) (born 25 Jan 1849).


They came to the US (Worth county Iowa) in the 1880s with a
daughter-Josephine (born 1882 in Norway). They had another daughter, Anna
Christine after they settled in Iowa. Anna was my grandmother.

How did they come to the US?

By ship and there's a good chance that they left from the port of Oslo.

When did they travel? Where did they arrive?

Possibly New York, but other ports are also possible.

I would guess this is your Simiane in the 1865 census of Norway with her
parents:

* Census year: 1865
* Municipality: Selje
* Municipality number: 1441
* Name of domicile: Rødberg

Number of persons in this domicile: 5.

Sorry to interrupt 'your' group.

When I read a header and find it interesting I expect the follow-up's are
about the same subject.
And I think the writer of the subject expect an answer and not another
discussion.
What did you expect when you saw there was a reply to the thread ?

I'm sorry you don't understand. I don't think it is nonsense. And if it is
nitpicking why do you bother reply anyway.

Thanks for the warm welcome.
If it is a private group, then write it somewhere.

Kind regards

A physical thread, yes. However, she used a new subject header and
created a
new logical thread which has no real possibility of being confused with
the
other. I don't understand why you are bothering us with that nitpicking
nonsense.

That may not be a reasonable expectation.

It's a new thread that was spawned by the initial thread, maybe your
newsreader got confused?

I think that was his point.

So let me get this straight. You complained that you didn't like how
someone composed a post to the group, Bob told you to lighten up because
it's no big deal, and you're telling _him_ to lighten up for that?

I need a scorecard to keep up. Or, just not bother, that's probably better.

It's not a perfect world and people make errors. There was no way to un-do
that one, so there was no point to your post except to complain.

The lady made a mistake when she posted. Why are you trying to made a big deal
out of it?

I look at Subject Headers and read the first one in the thread also, but chose
not to respond.

You sound confused.

Kind regards

You mean UNkind, don't you?

No, I dont mean unkind.
It was not my idea to complain, but to lead the writers attention to this
small error. Thats all.
Yes it made me a little confused.
All this writing could be avoided if the reply to my error was written in a
polite or friendly manner.
Or ignored. Of course it make mee upset when some angry person call my
writing nonsense and nitpicking for no or little reason.

And yes there is way. Not to undo an error but to ensure it is not repeated.
Tell people in a friendly manner about the error.
Remember, the first impression last.

I am really sorry for all this. And I hope this will end it.

Kind regards
