Christian Iverson 2851
- Marriage: Marit Hansdatter Kirkeeng
General Notes:
I see you have Kirkeeng family in your database. You stop at Wilhelm Kirkeeng, son of Lars Kikeeng. Lars (or Lewis in the 1880 census of Wisconsin) is living in Leon, Monroe co. with his brothers MC Kirkeeng and Iver Kirkeeng (Cirkeng).
I have some information on the Kirkeeng family if of any interest. Lars was borne in Sør-Fron parish at the tennant farm Kirkeeng (Church-meadow) under the ancient farm Isum.
The whole family emigrated to USA, Wisconsin, Lars in 1873. The older brother of Lars, Iver Kirkeeng, fathered a son Melvin Kirkeeng (see link) who married a foster daughter to a sister of my great grandfater in the US. Lars' parents were Christian Iversen and Marit Hansdatter Kirkeeng.
I have just managed to get into contact with descendants from Melvin and Ida. Best regards from Norway, Svein Botterud
Christian married Marit Hansdatter Kirkeeng.
