Hi Jeanne. I have very little information, but I am researching my grandmother Helga
(Knudsen0 or (Nordhagen) Westlie. b. 1892
married Peter Westlie, at Lakota, ND on 20 Dec 1907. She Had 3 brothers that came to the US, John, Martin and Asbjorn. John and Martin changed their names to Crookstad. I believe, from what I can gather, Helga went by Nordhagen and later changed her name to Knudsen. I believe her fathers name was Knud Nordhagen, but not sure. Helga had a brother Ottar that stayed in Norway. He had a son Odd that lives on the farm that Helga was born on. Their last name is Nordhagen. Interesting huh. address is Braskereidfoss.
