Gunder Gunderson

[gj10647]

Looking for the birth parish of Gunder Gunderson who was born in 1858 emigrated to USA in 1890. Before he meigrated from Norway he went to Denmark and married Pauline Christiansen. Gunder and Pauline had a son John Peter Gunderson born in Aalborg, Denmark in 1887.

According to a news paper article dated 1948 from Kansas City, Kansas one of Gunder Gunderson's siblings sold a necklace that his father had given him for $50.00 which was later resold for $65,000. (lots of money for the mid 1940s).

Any help in locating where this family is from in Norway is greatly appreciated.

Det er mange Gunder Gundersen f. 1858 å finne i folketellingen for 1865

Hadde det vært flere opplysninger fra USA så hadde det vært til stor hjelp, fødselsdato og navn på foreldre er kanskje med i noen US-Census?

En mulighet er å plukke ut de forskjellig Gunder Gundersen med fødselsår 1858 (helst 1857-1859) og prøve å finne ham i utflytterlistere i de forskjellige prestegjeld. ''

Om en visste hvor han var i Danmark så er det sikkert mulig å finne vielse i danske kilder, der burde det være flere personalia på Gunder.

Good luck.

Jeg finner 41 Gunder Gundersen født mellom 1857 og 1859 i 1865.
Navnet til broren i Kansas ville jo være til stor nytte her.

11 er igjen i 1900, som kan forsøksvis elimineres fra den første listen
