Calling all Ystenes!

Calling all Ystenes, and descendants!

I am tracking the movement of the Ystenes families from Norway to Canada and the United States, as well as the history of the name and families in Norway.

My grandfather, Rasmus Ystenes, came to North America from Ålesund, Norway. He anglicised his name to Ness upon arrival in the USA. He settled briefly in North Dakota where his brothers Anton and Olaf were (they also changed the family name to Ness), but then moved to Alberta, Canada, finally settling for good in the town of Bashaw.

I would dearly like any information you have on this line, even if it does not connect with mine.

Jason
