    Ole was baptized on June 16, 1866. His surname is not specifically recorded in this record. His father was Harald Olson. His mother was Birgit Tollersdatter. Numerous witnesses were listed including Knud Knudson, Knud Thorrson, Mari Tollefsdatter, Bortolsletten (sp?). Further review of this record required.

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Ole Haraldson Olson was born on Grønna, Nes Parish in Hallingdal, Buskerud County (Hallingdal being a large area including several Parishes in Buskerud County, and the Norwegian "County" is similiar to our Provinces.

    According to obit....

    When he was 6 years old, his mother died. He was adopted by his uncle Tollef Tollefson. In 1882, they moved from Wimeshiek County, Iowa to Dakota territory where they homesteaded in Hay township of Cavalier County (near Vang).

    After his marriage, filed his own homestead in Loam township. When he retired 10 years before his death, son Ole K. Olson took over the farm.

    Served for many years as a supervisor and assessor in Loam Township and was also a director on the school board.

    Recalled that when he came as a boy of 16 with the Tollefsons to Hay Township, there were no settlers any further west than their homestead and all their trips to a town had to be made by team to either Bathgate or St. Thomas.

    Other accounts (eg. Seeds in New Sod) indicate that he was 8 or 9 when mother died and that this occurred in Spring Grove, Minnesota. Lost track of his father about this time.

    Ole married Nellie Caroline Peterson on 20 Dec 1887 in Loam Township, Cavalier County, North Dakota. Nellie (daughter of Ole "Olaf" Pederson and Karen | Caroline Nilsdotter | Hanson) was born on 17 Oct 1868 in Fort Garry (Winnipeg), Manitoba; died on 7 Jun 1942 in Vang, Cavalier County, North Dakota; was buried in Vang Lutheran Cemetery, Hope Township, Cavalier County, North Dakota.
