Brevik Farm, Peter Iversen b.1880, Iver Pedersen b. 1852

[gj20389]

I am hoping that someone out here can help me please. I have some information on my husbands family that came to Canada via the USA from Norway. I know that they lived on the Brevik farm. Our great grandfathers name is Iver Pedersen born April, 1852. His parents Peder Knutsen B. 1814 and Karen Iversdatter B 1823. We know that he was married in Norway to a Mildri Pedersdatter. They had one son Peter Mikael. Shortly after his birth Mildri passed. Iver left Norway in 1884, moved to the US, there he married Ingeborg Andersdatter. They lived in Black River Falls, Wisconsin and then migrated to Canada with their only son Andrew (Anders) Leonard Peterson. Andrew is our grandfather. We are planning a trip to Norway summer 2014 and we would like to find out more about Andrews brother Peter who lived at the Brevik farm in Norway in the last census that we found in 1900. Also, does the farm name remain the same, or does the farm name move with the family? Thank you so much for any help that you give me. I was on this forum in 2008 and someone posted that in book number 5 about farms and people in Nesset on page 209 was where most of the information regarding Karen and Peter. Thanks again.

So far I could not find Peter Mikael in Census 1900 or 1910

Thanks Paul. I did have some info but not the records that you sent links for. Thank you so much for that. I have a 1900 Census with Karen Iversdatter living with Peder Iversen but I can not find him after that. Do you have any information about the farm Brevik. Is it still there, does the name move with the family or does the name stay with the land? I really appreciate all the help.

I will do some more research and send you a new file with ancestors and descendants of Peder Knudsen's family as a private message. But I am sorry, I have no information about Peter Mikael after 1895. Perhaps some other have??

Breivka is still a farm in Eresfjord, Nesset.

Thank you so much Rosvald. I would really appreciate anything that anyone has regarding this family. We are planning a trip to Norway next summer and would like to see if there are any distant relatives still alive and around that area. My personal email address is [email protected] You can email me anything that you find. Once again thank you so very much for all the time and information that everyone is contributing.

Linda, I sent you a lot of information to your email address.

Linda har fått sine anerekke langt bakover, og også en etterkommeroversikt for Peder Bre(i)vik. Det var ikke mange i mange som etterlot seg arvinger, og ingen i Romsdal, så langt jeg har kunnet finne. Det er etterkommere i Lunde i Telemark. Jeg har også vært i kontakt med noen i Bardu, men (som ventet) var det ingen som hadde opplysninger om Peter Mikael Iversen Brevik, f 27.7.1880 i Breivika i Nesset, hennes nærmeste slektning. Paul fant ham konfirmert, men etter det er det stopp.

Skulle det være noen som finner ut noe om ham, ville det være fint.

Mvh
Osvald
