1910 Norwegian Census - Sigri Gunnersdatter and Torbjor Olsdatter

By 1910, my great great grandmother had moved from Strond in 1900 to Sandven with her daughter, Torbjor Olsdatter and husband Gunner Olson.

















Sigri's family status is listed as "fl" the abbreviation for "losjerende, hørende til familien" which translates to "lodger, related to the family". 

The last two individuals listed are probably Torbjor's brother and sister-in-law.

Below is a map showing Sandven, south of Jordal.

1900 Norwegian Census - Torbjor Olsdatter

Here is the 1900 Norwegian Census for Sigri Gunnersdatter and Ole Larson's daughter, Torbor Olsdatter and husband Gunnar Olsen who were living in Sandven, south of the Jordal farm.















The abbreviation "hf" for "husfar" means husband and the abbreviation "hm" for "husmor" means housewife.    "Veiarbeider skomager" translates to shoemaker.

Here is a map showing the locations of Jordal and Sandven (I've seen it also spelled Sandvin).



Here is another map of the area.

Torbjor Olsdatter - marriage

Torbjor Olsdatter, the 2nd child born to Sigri Gunnersdatter and Ole Larson was married to Gunnar Olson on June 8, 1883.    Here is the Odda parish record (entry #4), Hordaland County, Norway.



















Gunnar Olson was born on the Sandven farm south of the Jordal farm.

The parish marriage record lists Torbjor's year of birth as 1853, which is in error; she was born March 13, 1852.
