Peter Helland - Norway to Colgan, N. Dak
Peter was my grandfather.He emmigrated to the U.S. in about 1901 with his brother, Olaus, and settled on a farm in the vacinity of Colgan, N.Dak.He came from a region named Helland, a little northeat of Aalesund near Brattvaag in Norway.His wife, Marie, died in childbirth in about 1914 to 1916.My father, Olaf, was his eldest child.
My parents lived in Norway in the early 1960's and tried to develop a family tree with little success prior to the 1850's.Anyone with information regarding this branch, please contact me at the above e-mail address.
