Anton married my 2X Grandmother Guri Lien Iverdatter after she and my Great Grandfather traveled here from Norway. I have found very little information on either Guri or Anton. I would appreciate any help that may be given. Gurie: 07 MAY 1856, Søndre, Aurdal, Oppland, Norway. Her date of death is approx 1916. I found some information for a Guri, but I can't be sure it's right - she may have perished in a medical facility in MN. The information I did find may have also been for a "male", so it's confusing me. Anton M. Sands: NOV 1845 • Norway. I found an 1895 Census with all 3 names on it, but nothing after that. Again, thank you if you feel inclined to assist. I am not a paid member here, so I face limitations for research on this site.

Got a profile on Guri Iversdatter Sands here:
Guri Iversdatter Sands

The info that have on Guri is that she immigrated with her parents, Iver (Iverson) Lien and Marit (Mary) , siblings Kari, Johan, Mathea and Guri's 3 month old son, Ingvald. Ingvald's birth father was Olson who lived on a neighboring farm but did not immigrate with them. I can't find any information on Anton Sands (Sand) and Guri's marriage, where they met or where he came from. Guri did pass away on 2/14/1916 at the State Mental Hospital in Fergus Falls, MN and was buried in the hospital cemetery. I would like to know more about her health/mental condition. Some were put in these institutions for reasons other than mental problems. I don't have any more information on Anton.
