• Name	Peter GULBRANSEN
  Birth	18 Nov 1881	Modum, Buskerud, Norway
  	Åmot
  Gender	Male
  Death	12 Mar 1963	Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
  Notes	In the 1916 Canadian census, he was a farmer in Last Mountain Dsitrict, Saskatchewan, Canada. He arrived in Canada in 1911, Inga in 1912 (after first, apparently, having Tabitha in the U.S.) and their oldest four children in 1912. In 1915, the family crossed into the U.S., headed toward Elgin where they were to be welcomed by Marie Tollefsen. Ruth, Svarre, and Gunner were listed. Tabitha may not have been listed because she was already a U.S. citizen, and/or she was already in Elgin. Joseph should have been listed but wasn’t. For Peder, his nearest relative in the country from which he came was his brother Karl in Sondefjord, Norway. Those crossing were claimed to have arrived in the port of N.Y. in May of 1908. Peder was born in Aamot. Inga was born in Skatselem (sp?) {Skotselv} Although other sources refer to him as “Rev.”, in the 1920 census, he was a painter for a watch face company. He and his family lived in Elgin, Illinois. He and his wife and, apparently, at least four of their children came to the U.S. in 1915, after first spending time in Canada, and, apparently, spending time in the U.S. before that.
