Hello all you Traaen's out there! I am trying to piece together our family back to Norway. I am running into some brick walls. My mother's grandfather was Ole K Traaen. He migrated from Norway , we think the Rollag area, but are not sure, about 1881 or 1883. He married Bereth Anna Jensen Aasen Orson, and settled in Yellow Medicine county Minnestoa. Ole had 2 children before he married Bertha. I do not know if he was married to these women. One was Guro Jacobsson Huse, the other Gertie Olson. The family moved from Minnesota to Washington state in 1900. I would love to visit with any Traaen folks. Maybe we can help each other find where our ancestors lived in Norway. Kay Neubauer
