Torgerson/Olson Family Bible
« on: Thursday 23 February 17 04:43 GMT (UK) »
I would love to find a Torgerson and Olson Family Bible. have not had great luck yet.

My 2nd Great-Grandmother maiden name is Torgerson. They came from Griggs County, North Dakota to Montana in 1908. Her father was Torger Torgerson who was born in Oslo, Norway in 1856 not exactly sure when he came to North Dakota but believe it was about 1880s. Her mother was Ragnhild Thoreson-Olson (was actually Olson but took name of Thoreson after arriving in North Dakota) was born 1874 in Minnesota. Ragnhild Parents were Thore (or Torrie or Thor) Olson and Rachel Amundson. Both were born in Norway.

Hi
I am sorry to say that I don't have a bible but I did take a look at this family to see if I could find anything from Norway.
Are you looking for them in Norway or do you have that info already.
Also, what was the name of your 2nd Great Grandmother.

Just wondering if you wanted any more help..................

I did manage anyway to find the family online. I have tried to find them in Norway but no luck there unfortunately.
According to the censuses Torger Togersson came to USA in 1861, Ragnhild Olsson/Johnson in 1844 and Thor Olsson's arrival wasn't recorded.

I did find this though which you might already have: http://www.rootschat.com/links/01jlv/
