Biography

Norwegian Native
Ole Larsen was born in Norway
This profile is part of the Solum, Telemark, Norway One Place Study.

Ole was born in 1806 at Øya, Kilebygda.[1] He was the son of Lars Jonsen Nordøya and Anne Jonsdatter Stavdal.[1]

He was confirmed on 7 October 1821 in Solum.[2]

He married Elisabet Hansdatter on 28 December 1826 in Solum.[3]

Ole went to America in the 1840s. There's a long biography about him on Find A Grave: Memorial #44911865. It says that "Ole was actually married three times, his first wife having died very young and without children." No evidence has been found supporting this claim; on the contrary, at the 1826 wedding is stated that Ole is a "ungkarl", ie. a bachelor.

He married Ragnhild "Rachel" Weissenberg about 1849 in Buffalo, NY. (Cf. her biography)

He died on 8 Sep 1871 in Ephraim, Door County, Wisconsin, USA.[4]

5 children are known from Norway:

  1. Anne Randicte Olsdatter, born on 2 November 1828.[5]
  2. Hans Laurentius Olsen, born on 27 August 1830.[6]
  3. Karen Marie Cecilia Olsdatter, born on 20 April 1833.[7]
  4. Pauline Olsdatter, born on 2 April 1836.[8]
  5. Andrine Josephine Jacobine Olsdatter, born on 22 March 1838.[9]
