More about Who Emigrated

Here is a new chart with who emigrated, who stayed in Norway and who was born in the US. I have tried to add spouses who emigrated when I have the exact information and dates. Remember all of these people emigrated between 1854 to 1874, a 20 year period.

Chart

The chart in this blog entry below does not seem to enlarge well, so I am going to put a link to this chart here ==CLICK HERE==, so that you can also grab it and enlarge it. I know viewing this chart from the blog will be hard, so I recommend clicking this link. You can then view the chart and read the text side by side.

This is an interesting kind of chart, because the program always makes it sideways.
How to understand the color codes:

Pink
--The first people mentioned are the ancestors of all the following people=We start with Endre Hansen, Lee, Nissestad and Kari Vikingsdatter, Mörkve, who are the mother and father or our Iver Endreson Nistad (Iver Vangsness) listed below. The come first and are in PINK.

Orange
--Those in orange are their children.

Yellow
--Those in yellow, their children's children and...

Green
--Those in green are the children of the children's children.

I think you can get the idea. I do not have complete information about the wives of some of our early relatives. They very well could have emigrated as well, I just do not know....

If you look closely at the chart, you can figure out who stayed in Norway and then those who were born in the US.

We start with Endre Hansen, Lee, Nissestad and Kari Vikingsdatter, Mörkve, who are the mother and father or our Iver Endreson Nistad (Iver Vangsness) listed below. The come first and are in PINK.

Interesting to note that the last child, Ole Endreson, born 1823 did NOT emigrate nor did any of his children. Their decedents would be the people we would want to find in Norway, they would be the our relatives in Norway!!
