Emilie Fjeld, school records Kristiania (Oslo) Norway Toien Skole

Looking for information on the Toien School Kristiania Norway. Concerning Emile Fjeld Jensen. Blieved to have been born in Kristiania in either 1871 or 1873.

I have a reference letter from a school Pastor ( Pastor Moe) given to my maternal great grandmother dated 11 Ocotber 1883, before she left for Chicago.

I will be in Oslo in June 2010 and hope to clear up information about her.

Her head stone in Mt Olive Cemetery in Chicago indicates she was born in 5 Jan 1871 and died 26 Jan 1898. But a the 1875 Oslo (Kristiania) census shows a Emile Fjeld born in 1873.

I hope that school records might list her parents. Based on the 1875 census I have been researching her parents as Edvard Peterson Fjeld (Changed name to Edward Field) and Oline Fjeld as her mother,.

Finally the question--while in Oslo is it possible to research the school records?? If so where should I look?

Any help appreciated.

Neil
