United States of America / Viriginia: Peters, James Henry, cant find his parents

« on: Monday 23 July 12 01:30 BST (UK) »

I need some help, I believe through a few sources that the parents of James Henry Peters are Warner Peters and Catharine Jackson but I cannot find info connecting the two.

Not sure where to go to confirm or find other proof of his parents, anyone have any ideas?

This what I know of James Henry Peters
Born: 4 Apr 1824 in Jefferson, Alexandria, Virginia, United States per the Census in 1880

1 Apr 1847 Married Jane Ferguson in Ohio

Died: 3 Jun 1910

The other sources have been web searches but I'm not sure how accurate they are.

Europe / Norway: Ole Oleson Norby

« on: Monday 09 July 12 22:29 BST (UK) »

Hoping to find info on Ole Oleson Norby, and his parents, he is my Great Great grandfather.

I believe he as born circa 1844

From some other sources he may have come to the US with his family when he was three years old
Possible siblings are Kari, Taran (born 1837?) and Gunhild (Julia) Norby

He married Bertha Augusta Brandvold b. 20, Sep 1856 from Grue, Hedmark Norway.

If you have any ideas or know of archives I can look at that would be awesome. I speak Swedish which is fairly similar linguistically and could work my way through a Norwegian site.

thx!
