    Notes 
    • Also spelled Oleanna (the way it’s spelled in her birth record). Called herself Olianna Bye in calling cards that she used in Fergus Falls.

      Last name in Norway is also Martitvoldvald. Could not find her in the 1865 census. There was a 27 year-old Olianna Johansdatter who lived on Mikvoldvald and was the wife of the husmand Jørgen Andersen. That couple had two children.

      She had 3 siblings living in Fergus Falls.

      Oleanna Johannesdatter, 43, and her four children (Jon Martinussen, 11, Marie Martinussdatter, 7, Anna Martinussdatter, 9, and Hans Martinussen, 5) left Norway on 5 April 1882 on the feeder ship Tasso to Hull, England. Their destination was Fergus Falls, Minnesota. They are not listed among the emigrants in the Stiklestad church book.

    The picture is a 2x4 sepia-toned print mounted on cardboard by the Overland & Holand studios of Fergus Falls. This is a younger Oleanna than she ever was in Fergus Falls so it is probably a picture taken in Norway. It may have been put together by Overland & Holand as part of Oleanna's funeral.

    Oleanna was probably in her 30s in this picture so it would have been taken in Norway before she and the children left for Amerika.
