Neils Hansen Fjeld, son of Hans Peterson Rud and Soffie Neilsdatter, emmigrated in 1847 with his family to Albion, Wisconsin aboard the Tricolor. They moved to Blooming Grove, Wisconsin both in Dane County. The farm was located at the site of the Fish building and Supply close to the Cottage Grove Road and Stoughton Road.

Hi Janelle, Im in Alberta as well, if you are speaking about the same Fjeld/Field last name as mine, I also have Henry Torvald Fjeld, and Emma in my family line. My grandfather is named Ernest, and he had several brothers, and one sister that died when she was young. He is in the Ardrossan area, however we have ties to Viking and Bruce Alberta.
