Anders married Anna Eriksdatter OPHEIM on 28 Nov 1827 in Hafslo, Sogn og Fjordane, Norway. Anna (daughter of Erik Jenssen OPHEIM and Benthe Jørgensdatter JORANGER) was born in 1802 in Opheim, Jordanger, Hafslo, Sogn og Fjordane, Norway; was christened on 12 Sep 1802 in Hafslo, Sogn og Fjordane, Norway; died on 3 Jan 1849 in Bergen, Hordaland, Norway.

Anna Eriksdatter OPHEIM was born in 1802 in Opheim, Jordanger, Hafslo, Sogn og Fjordane, Norway; was christened on 12 Sep 1802 in Hafslo, Sogn og Fjordane, Norway (daughter of Erik Jenssen OPHEIM and Benthe Jørgensdatter JORANGER); died on 3 Jan 1849 in Bergen, Hordaland, Norway.

Other Events and Attributes:

Baptism: 12 Sep 1802, Opheim, Jordanger, Hafslo, Sogn og Fjordane, Norway

Notes:

Of Opheim farm according to Berthe’s baptism records and confirmed in marriage records.

She was 26 when she married Anders.

She does not seem to be listed in the 1865 Norwegian census.

We do not know the dates and circumstances for Anna’s death. The best guess, endorsed by Arne, is described in Lars E Øyane’s bygdebøk: Gards- og ættesoge for Luster kommune Band VI (1986). On page 383-85, Øyane claims that Anna Eriksdotter “probably died from cholera in Bergen 3 January 1849.” Arne concedes that Anna ending up in Bergen, rather far from Sogn, is problematic.

Arne’s summary: As to Anders’s and Anna’s seven children, all born in Marheim, three of them (Berthe, Kari and Anders) emigrated to America, one (Erik) lived in Bergen, Norway, two died early (the first Anders and his sister Anna), and only one (Brithe) stayed in Hafslo.
