Mathias Jacobsen Hvalvik Hepsø, født 3. juni 1854 i Kinn, Fl

[dn35811]

Hei Finders,

Jeg håper du har det bra. Hvis du har interesse, trenger jeg hjelp med å finne forfedrene til min bestefar fra Kinn. Han heter Mathias Jacobsen Hvalvik Hepsø, født 3. juni 1854 i Kinn, Florø. Han flyttet til Hepsøya og giftet seg med Anne Jakobsen Hvalvik Hepsø (født Lukasdatter Hepsø i 1855).

De hadde fem barn, inkludert min bestemor Martha Marie Jakobsen født 1886 i Hepsøya.

Mathias giftet seg med Kristine Hvalvik (født Johannessen i 1873), og de hadde tre barn.

Min familie i Hepsøya vet ingenting om Mathias foreldre, besteforeldre eller brødre og søstre. Vi har en Bjørnorfolkter bok, men det er ingenting om Mathias forfedre.

Kan du hjelpe meg?

Jeg er veldig takknemlig for hjelp til å finne familien vår.

Tusen takk,
Genevive
