Born in Uvdal 2/2 Sygardé. Resided in Bøkkadn 33/3 av Ellingbø between 1850 and 1862. Emigrated to the U.S. in the spring of 1862 with her parents, siblings, and 2 daughters (one by Ola, one by Nils).

Hun hadde datteren Kirsti (1853-) med Nils Trondsen Tune og datteren Anne 1857- med Ola Endresen Ellingbø. Begge barna tok hun med seg da hun dro til Amerika i 1862.

This second reference to emigrating in 1866 and living in Fisher can’t be confirmed. We know that Velgjerd, unmarried, came to the U.S. with her parents in 1862. More likely is that Velgjerd met up with Thorsten Boe when she got to the U.S. and had Berit.

Velgjerd may have died before 1870. Jim’s site says that she died in 28 Dec 1865 in Goodhue County.
