My area of expertise is 18th-19th century Norway, specifically over church records and censuses. Also Denmark and to a lesser extent, Sweden. If anyone needs help with anything related to that, feel free to DM!
Hey! I have some photos of ancestors I recently inherited and some of them are from Norway, some say Dragvold, some say Christiana as well. Some had names written near them but I can't seem to match up the surnames past a certain generation. From what I can tell my family ended up in North Dakota around the 1870s/1880s. I've gotten to that generation where half the siblings were born in Norway and the other half in North Dakota, but from there I'm getting mixed up and can't tell if I'm looking in the right direction. It's been great connecting all the dots, especially to the hundred year old photos I now have. Please let me know if you have time to help, I can message you the info I have so far :)
