Hi. Nils Nilson Bjerke (6/12/1813 - 1/6/1884) and Kjerstine Nilson Bjerke born Kjerstine Larsdaughter Olsen (3/17/1820 - 10/6/1910) are my Great-Great Grandparents. They are buried in the Bloomfield Cemetery in Ostrander, MN.
Just a couple of other notes (that you may have already): immigrated to the USA in 1864 and lived in the Ostrander, MN area, 10 children that grew to adulthood: Johannah (or Johanne), Helene, Christine, Lars, Nils (or Nels), Petronelle, Even (my Great Grandfather),Johan Helmer (John), Caroline, and Clara.
I have a family history booklet compiled in 1977-79 by Clarence Iverson of Binford ND. The booklet mainly follows the Helene Bjerke Iverson line, but there is a fair amount of additional information that is quite interesting and informative for the descendents of the other siblings. I would be willing to share the booklet with you in some form or other, if you are interested.
Sincerely,
Mike
