I am just starting research on my Bjerke relatives.
My gr grandmother Helga was a Bjerke as was my gr grandfathers
family, her husband. His family changed their name to Wollan after
coming to the U.S. Just recently we have found a box of pictures
with many of the Bjerke family in them. Some are marked but in
Norwegion. These pictures are wonderful and I can only hope to
someday discover exactly who these people are. If anyone has any
info that might pertain to these Bjerke's I would love to hear from you.
Thank You. Diana

Helga Bjerke

Hello:

I am researching the Bjerke family. I am writing to you as I have a Karen HELGA Bjerke in my family. I don't know much about her. Helgas parents are Gustav and Eoline. The family history is in Norway.

Please contact me if this sound familar. If so. I have the ancestry of this family.

Diana Nelson...the Karen Helga that is your great grandmother if on a page from the Church records in Norway as daughter of Gustav and Eoline Bjerke...who was a lst cousin to my grandfather Niels Bjerke.

What was the name of her husband? There are many relatives from these families living in the Toten area. Some eleven cousins came here with the Hoff choir and dance group for the Toten Lag meeting in South Dakota some years ago.

We would like to have them come back again some year.

Hi Diane
If you are interested in some of the Bjerke information on your ancestors Johannes and Karen Bjerke I can help you out. Johannes is my great great grandfathers brother. I would love to get copies of the pictures if possible and maybe can help you get them translated.

Hello:
I have been researching the Bjerke family tree. Karen Helga is the daughter of Gustav and Eoline Bjerke. Gustav is the son of Johannes Bjerke who was a famous clockmaker in Norway.
Johannes Bjerke is the son of Niels and Eli Bjerke whom are my great great great grandfather. I would love to compare family information and would love copies of the photographs you mentioned. I may be able to help you out. I have a few old photographs that may help identify people in you pictures.
