Additional Information:
Emigration information for Kittil and Torbjor: exact date/ship
unknown. The date is probably between 1863 and 1872 when their 10 year
old daughter Birgit, who had been born in Norway, died in Six Mile
Grove, Nevada Twp. Note: Seljord IV page172: Til USA 1867.
|
|
Believe Kittil and Torbjor emigrated before their adult daughter
Kirsten and her husband Anders Kleven (my great – grandparents. Six Mile
Grove was probably the first residence for my 2nd great -
grandparents, while their adult daughter first settled in Lyle, MN.
