Norwegian Research Part 18 - Reider Toralf Bakke

Part 18 - Norwegian research In the Oslo Domkirke parish register 1848-1865 image 383 we have: No. 10, 1859, Jan 31, bachelor, snedkersvend Ole Andersen Bakke and single woman Juliane Petrine Eriksdatter . Ole born Aurskog??, living ??, ag e 29 and a half years, father: Anders Olsen, gaardbruger (farmer), bestman: Peder Olsen AND Juliane born Aker, age 24 and a quarter years, father: Erik Pedersen (Norman??), gartner (gardener), bestman: Edvard Eriksen. Banns 5, 12, 19th Dec. Both vaccinated for smallpox. I think Peder Olsen's occupation is 'Høker' which is a provisions dealer and Edvard Eriksen's occupation is perhaps Skomager..... (some sort of shoemaker). Details like this can always be checked later from other records if clarification is needed. This record confirms Ole's full name of Ole Andersen Bakke - for some reason it was not transcribed properly on FamilySearch. It always pays with Scandinavian names to check indexes with both the patronymic name (in...

Norwegian Research Part 17 - Reider Toralf Bakke

Norwegian Research Part 17 In FamilySearch under 'Norway Marriages, 1660-1926', I haven't found a marriage for an Ole Andersen Bakke, but did find one under 'Ole Andersen'. Name: Ole Andersen Birth Date: 1830 Age: 29 Spouse's Name: Juliane Petrine Eriksdr Spouse's Birth Date: 1835 Spouse's Age: 24 Event Date: 31 Jan 1859 Event Place: Domkirken, Oslo, Akershus, Norway Father's Name: Anders Olsen Spouse's Father's Name: Erik Pedersen Indexing Project (Batch) Number: M42466-1 , System Origin: Norway-VR , GS Film number: 255752 , Reference ID: 2:R9NG43 Citing this Record "Norway, Marriages, 1660-1926," index, FamilySearch ( https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/NWSS-1NK  : accessed 15 Sep 2014), Ole Andersen and Juliane Petrine Eriksdr, 31 Jan 1859; citing Domkirken, Oslo, Akershus, Norway, reference 2:R9NG43; FHL microfilm 255752. Everything looks right apart from the missing 'Bakke' so hopefully finding the marriage in the...

Norwegian Research Part 16 - Reider Toralf Bakke

Part 16 - Norwegian research Sofie Amalie's baptism is in the same register - her birth was 2 Aug 1865 and baptism 17 Sep 1865. Her parents are listed as snedker (cabinetmaker) Ole Andersen Bakke and Juliane Petrine Eriksdatter . Looking back at Oscar's baptism I can see his mother's name kind of looks like 'Eriksdatter' but I don't think I would have worked that out without finding her name some where else.  At this stage I haven't looked for Adolf's baptism as I don't know which parish in Christiania to look in, so I'll assume his mother is Juliane Petrine Eriksdatter for now, and should find confirmation of that when I find hers and Ole's marriage.

Part 15 - Norwegian research Although I still have a few more parish records to obtain for Adolf Olsen Bakke's family, I'm more interested now in moving on to his father's family. So far, from census records, I know the following about th e family of Ole Andersen Bakke: Ole Andersen Bakke born 1829 Blakjer married to Juliane born 1829 Sørkedalen with children Adolf Olsen Bakke born 19 Jul 1859 Christiania, confirmed 1873 Eidsvoll parish, Akershus county Oskar Olsen Bakke born 1862 Eidsvoll parish, Akershus county Sofie Amalie Bakke born 1865 Eidsvoll parish, Akershus county There is a marriage on FamilySearch 'Norway Marriages 1660-1926' for a Sofie Amalie Bakke with father Ole Andersen Bakke, to an Aksel Ludvig Eriksen with father Johannes Eriksen in Christiania (Oslo, Oslo) on 4 Nov 1888.  I think we can safely assume this is our Sofie - but I will have to look up the LDS catalogue to see which parish the film number belongs to so I know which parish ...

Part 12 - Norwegian research I'll now have a look for Adolf Olsen Bakke and Jensine Fredrikke Charlotte Jensen 's marriage.  I already know it was on 11 Feb 1883 in Trefoldighet parish, Christiania from FamilySearch, so it is an easy matter  to go to Digitalarkivet, find the Oslo parish registers and click on the Trefoldighet registers for the appropriate time period and find the one with marriages. About 30 seconds to find this one!
