I am tying to help a Norwegian locate and trace the movements of an ancestor (second Cousin) her name is Hannah Thalette Helmerson born in Trondelag, Norway 14 Oct 1874 her last known location in Norway was Borge in Lofoten in 1891 it was thought she came to England after that time, it is known by the family that she was married twice to a Thomas D? (Douthwaite) and Frank? (Short) she had no children, I located a marriage for her in Tynemouth Mar qtr. 1903 Hannah Tallatthe Short to a Thomas Lovell Douthwaite, then found them on the 1911 Census, where she gives her nationality as Norwegian but in the 'place of birth' is Newark Montana, America, the enumerator has written in red 'Resident', so somehow she has made her way to America we are trying to track her time there and arrival in England but coming up with zero, also it is told that her 1st husband died probably in the Boar War 1899 - 1902, I would so appreciate any help or advice with this. |
