I am searching for my Great Grand Uncle with various spellings I have seen of his name. Brynjulf, Bryngel and Brynjulv Haakonson, Haakenson, Hakonson, Haakondson. He was born in 1853 in Vangens Sogn, Voss, Norway. Christened, 20 Nov 1853 in Voss, Hordaland, Norway. He married Kristi Eriksdatter and has 5 children according to books I looked through on line. Gudve(1874), Sigrid(1874), Lars(1876), Erik(1876) and Guri(1880). All born in Opkvitne, Voss, Norway. I know they immigrated to the United States in 1883. Left Bergen May 11, 1883 on the Guion Line. I lost them after that. I am assuming the Americanized their names but I haven't a clue what the change would be. Also my Great Grand Aunt Anna Haakonsdatr born in 1859 in Voss. She left Norway May 19, 1882 from Voss as a hired girl on Cunard Line. I couldn't find where she nor Brynjulv ended up at in the States. Please help I am at a loss. Thank you sincerely, Tina Hogan

Delete Since I have posted a reply on November 4th, I have found the entire Brynjulv Haakonson family...yay me. I am very excited. Still looking for Anna his sister. I am wondering if anyone might want to take a stab at what they think Gudve would have been Americanized to?
