Looking for descendants of Andreas Gulbrandsen (1820-?) and Mari Engebretson/Engebretsdatter (1817-?). Their children were: Helvine Antonette Mathea Andreasdatter/Gulbrandsen (b.1841 and immigrated to Australia), Edvard (b. 1845), Frederik (b. 1847), Martin (b. 1850) and Maren (b. 1854). Andreas' second wife was Kristine Eriksen (1822-?) and their children were Axel (b. 1858 - also immigrated to Australia), Anna (b. 1864) and Emelie (b. 1865).

I am looking for any living relatives of Leif Tolfener Gulbrandsen. He was born in Hammer Norway in the early 1900’s. He was a Lutheran Minister and was ministering at the Norwegian’s Seaman’s Church in Brooklyn N.Y. around 1949. He married my aunt, Marjorie Norman. They had no children, and I believe Leif was an only child. They are both dead now and I have some family heirlooms including a family bible 1852 and photo album from same era. Please let me know if any of this sounds familiar. I would like to see the proper family get these items.

Hi Signe,
I am sorry to take so long to respond. I don't recall getting the usual message from Rootsweb on this. Anyway, I think we share the same line, or rather you and my husband do. I see your great grandmother's name on his family tree. Kristine Eriksen was Andreas' second wife. I see 5 children with his first wife (Mari Engebretsen) named Helvine or Elviene, Edvard, Frederik, Martin and Maren, and 3 with Kristine - named Emelie, Axel and Anna. The information I have shows Maren married Mars Johannessen and had 5 children, Haral, Margit, Vilhelm and Borgild (looks like they're twins) and Erling. If this sounds like the right family to you, I would love to continue our e-mails.

Hi Signe,
My husband's great grandmother was a half-sister to your great grandmother. Andreas Gulbrandsen and Mari (his first wife) had 5 children: Helvine (my husband's great grandmother), Edvard, Frederik, Martin and Maren. Andreas and his second wife, Kristine, had Emelie, Axel and Anna.
