Iver H. Teigen (Knudsen) - Did Iver marry in Norway or in the US?

Steven Patrick Frank I think this is where the "other" Kari Olson gets mixed in?

Harald - we have two pairs of Iver / Kari's

I went by building out the siblings.

what could be intresting on all these profiles ,is what the midle letter`s stands for.

like Iver H. Teigen.
whats the H ?

and Iver E. Teigen
and it`s more of those.

Grandson is Henry Elmer Teigen. I was looking for it as a "family" name.

I'm going "ancestry tree diving" so take whatever emerges with the proper grains of salt. And it will be straight c&p

Erica Howton do add the link to where you have it from!

Yes, when I go back to Ancestry, which hates the iPad. I found the Minnesota State Census for 1885 which lists the children in original handwriting. Steve Frank referred to it (copying across his comment of a few days ago):

Erica Isabel Howton, (c) Martin Severin Eriksen,
Unfortunately I think you have the wrong Iver Teigen. The one in Pope Co., MN is not the same as the one in North Dakota. The parents you added are those of Iver 1841-1921 who lived in Pope, MN. Both were married to a Kari which is probably the confusion. Chrissy Teigen is descended from Iver Teigen 1844-1933 who lived in Lac qui Parle, Minnesota and then moved to Pierce, North Dakota around 1900.

I found a tree that has an Iver Johansson Teigen/Snerleeie b. 1844 d. 1933 as son of Johan Knudsen Teigen, Ane/Anne Olsdatter Rottemseie. I tried to confirm it but the Norweigan patronymics made me dizzy.

Thanks - I don't have an ancestry account, so can't check out that one. I tried to put the info you gave on the two Teigens into the record as best I can.

Marriage Iver J. Teigen and Kari Olsen 17 Nov 1870 Minneapolis, Hennepin, Minnesota with a link to the original document: https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/QJGY-YP1T

Bjørn - This is the "other" Iver / Kari, terribly confusing because the dates are very similar also.

They are here, we can call them the "Pope county Teigens"

Iver Jørgensen Teigen

I just uploaded the 1885 Minnesota state census for "our" Teigens. It has the 3 oldest children born in Norway.

So this confirms the other census reports saying they married in 1870 (had to have been Norway) & emigrated 1876

So your wedding record will be in - Vagga?

There are two discussions about the same problem, please try to stick to one of them, here is the other one: http://www.geni.com/discussions/138024

Started almost exactly at the same time. That happens. Let's stop this one and use the other one.
