I am trying to get information about Ida Caroline Israelson. She was born the 26 sep 1950 in Hemnes, Nordland, Norway. She had 2 illegitimate children in Norway. One of them Nora Sofie (b 24 may 1876 in Utskarpen, Hemnes, Norway) was my 2nd great grandfathers child.
Ida Caroline emigrated with her 2 children in Jun 1878 with Willmar, Kandiyohi, Minnesota as her destination. She arrived in Quebec, Canada the 23rd of June 1878, but there stops all records.
Many from her family also emigrated to the US. Pehr Olof (1829-1904 in Sundberg, Minnesota), John Jacob (1838-1913 in Roslyn, Day, South Dakota), Anton (1840-1920 in Petersburg, Alaska.
I have found some tree that have included the family, but have not have any luck in getting more info.
According to some family trees here at Ancestry Ida Caroline died in 1930 in Whatcom, Washington, but I have not been able to find any documents proving this.
I am very interested in finding information about what happened with Ida Caroline and her two daughters. Specially information about the daughter Nora Sofie that was my great grandmothers half-sister. Maybe there are decendants of her? My great grandmother did not know that she had a half sister. This was probably not talked much about in those days :-)
In my family tree i have more info about the Israelson family. They lived for many years in my home village Utskarpen in Northern Norway.
Hope there are anyone out there who can help.
