Looking for more information on our Hjelle line. My great-great grandmother, Margarette Viola Brown was the daughter of Edd Brown...who changed his name from Odd Hjelle when he came to the United States prior to 1865. Edd/Odd was born 1 Jun 1842 in Woss, Norway. He died 7 Mar 1922 in Kooskia, Idaho, Idaho. He married Anne Marie (Anna Maria) Johnson (Gronsten) 1 Mar 1865 in Rochester, Minnesota. We know nothing more about Odd Hjelle/Edd Brown other than the fact that he was a violinist & one of the kings of Norway's musicians.

I am a great great granddaughter of Edd Brown and wondering what you have learned. (I am Mary Teichmer, married to David Predmore). Please reply if you get this message and we would be happy to share information from our tree and vice versa from yours.

Thanks in advance for your kind assistance!

Mary,
Sorry it has taken me so long to answer. I moved in 2008 and changed emails and didn't remember to change it here apparently! Here is my email address so you can just email me at that bethlorr@hotmail.com and then messages won't get lost again :)
Which of Edd's children are you descended from? A couple of years ago, my mom (via different family history sites) came in contact with other cousins and we've gathered quite a bit more info. I don't have it all organized yet since that all happened right before I had my 3rd child, but I'm hoping to get back to working on it this summer. I am descended from his daughter Margarette...through her son Marvel Edwin...his daughter Darlene...and her daughter Lorrayne. Anyway, sorry it has tkaen me almost 2 yrs to get back to you! Looking forward to hearing from you and being able to share info.
Beth
