Good evening to you. I do not know if there is a match here or not? Please read the item dated 7/30/00, Twede/Aamodt-- Donna. My great grand father came from Norway, they lived on the Tveida(Twede) farm. I have found different spellings of that name, it is hard to find any one with information. You mentioned a book. What book are you talking about? Can a person get it from the library? That would be interesting to read, and no I do not read Norweign, I have tried to deceipher some words and checked out a dictionary, helps a little. I know someone who does read and speak Norweign. Hope to hear from you. Little by little I am gathering information on the Twede's, with the help of a cousin, that I met on the Twede message board. We are trying to put information together.

It was good to hear from you. The book I was talking about came from Minnesota. My mother got it some where. Can't get it at a library though. In this book, the name is spelled Tvete. My fathers name was Selmer his brother is named Marvel and lives in Portland. We are related people with the name of Boen, also in Minn. If you want I can see if any names show in the book. You will have to give me some names and birth dates. Talk to you later.

Thank you for answering so fast. I had to look up some dates, on some papers I have the spelling so many ways. Tveit, Tvete, Tveida. My greatgrandfather, Peder(Peter) Tveit was born in Helleland in 1864 and died in Egeraand 1940. There is a farm, named Tveida ?, His wife Jorgine Jorgenson Aamodt-Tveit was born in Stavabgery or Frondhem ? and died in Washinton 1923. I have no information on her side of the family, and I have somewhere that Peder had a sister or brother, but can not put my finger on it, of course it is not with the other. I have no information on his mother or father and would love to find some. Hopefully it will be in the book. They went to Minnesota from Norway, lived in Halstad and then to Montana. My grandfather(John Peter)was born in Halstad, also another brother and I think a sister was also born there. I have an uncle that lives in Oregon, but he can not tell me much. I live in Kansas. Hope to hear from you again. If you want you can e-mail me at dlcook@kc.rr.com
either way is good. Any information you can find would be very helpful and I do appreciate it very much. Have a great day.

Hello. It ha sbeen a long time since I have been doing family history. I was looking on the Twede site and found the information you had wrote earlier. I am still trying to find anything on this family. By any chance is there anything in the book you had mentioned? Time does get away from all, this is a very busy world we live in. Hope to hear from you. Donna
