Welcome!
Here I will
present the information I have about the family of my great-grandmother
Kristine Benedikte Eriksdatter. She was married to Ole Nilsen, so since this
is the genealogy cite for my maternal grandmother, it will be called Nilsen.
The family history of my
great-great grandfather - Erik Nilsen - is the reason I start this cite. I
guess his patronymic name was the reason why the oldest one of his children
used Nilsen as a family name, while the youngest - Soren - used Eriksen or
Erickson after his father's first name.
So, this is a cite for
information about Erik Nilsen (1812-1891), his wife "Kjerstine" (1839-1910)
and their ten children:
Nils Chrisitan,
born July 22nd 1858, lived in the USA, one daughter: Anna Marie Johnson
Johan Adolph, born August 17th 1860, lived in Eau Claire, Wisconsin. Married and had many children
Conrad Bertinus, born June 16th

Kristine Benedikte, born December 15th 1863
Anton Marius, born August 2nd1865
Carl, born February 24th 1868

Peder Olaus, born May 7th1874, lived in Wisconsin, USA
