Christian Rogstad

Else Edvinsen Granum Hi Elvina Christian emigrated in 1890 with his wife, Anna, and two children; Johannes and Harold Christian. I have a wedding picture that I think is Christian and Anna. I also have the rest of his family. Will send this to you tomorrow.

 I have no pictures of Jen's daughter, Isabel.  Isabel never lived with Jens or Anna.  She was the youngest of  his children and when his wife died and Esther and Helen went to live with Anna, Isabel went to live with Maren, Jens' sister.  Jens remained a bachelor until all his daughters grew up.  All of Jens daughters and Anna's daughters went to Minneapolis and roomed together and worked in a factory together..  They all met and married men from Minneapolis and lived there the rest of their lives.  Helen Rogstad Jen's Daughter had no children and died young.    I have pictures of Agnes, and Mina (Anna and Christian's daughters)  I also have a picture of Helen and a not very good one of Esther and none of Isabel  (Jens and His wife Helene's daughters)  Remember, Anna and Helene were sisters  who had married brothers, Christian and Jens Rogstad.    Christian and Anna were married in Norway, and Jens and Helene were married in America                                        -per Judy Butzer      08/26/2021
