  Notes	In the 1930 census, she was 45 years old. She and her husband had come to the U.S. in 1909. According to the St. Albans records, she arrived in North America aboard the Pretorian which had sailed from Liverpool on 29 Jan 1909. Her border crossing record said that she was from Aurdal in Valders. Her destination was Minneapolis. She appeared to be traveling with Engebrigt Svendasit a 31 year-old married man who lived in Minneapolis. (Perhaps her sister’s husband.) Ancestry’s indexing of that record has her arriving in Halifax, Nova Scotia, on 8 Feb 1909. She may be the Rangdi Pedersdatter in the 1900 Norwegian census who lived on Vangshjellstuen 98/11 in Nordre Aurdal. That household consisted of Kristian Pedersen, born in 1834 in Rotkjøbing paa Langeland, bagermester og Gaardr; Marit Pedersen, b. 1835 in Vestre Slidre; Rangdi; and Malmfryd, telegrafbud. From Digitalarkivet, that Rangdi was born 9 Jan 1884, baptized 6 July 1884, on Vangstuien in the Aurdal local parish of Nord-Aurdal. Her parents were Kristian Pedersen and Marit Pedersen, b. 1834 and 1836, respectively. Rangdi was a twin: her sister was Malfryd. Both children were confirmed in the same local parish on 9 April 1899. The farm is still Vangsgjellstuen. The twins’ mother’s name is shown as Marit Pedersdatter. The father’s occupation is Bager. She was living at 3236 N. Thomas Avenue, Minneapolis, at the time of her death. Her obit said that she had lived in Minneapolis for 50 years and was a 40 year member of St. Mark’s Lutheran Church.
