Olaf's year of birth makes sense. Olaf's middle name is Nilson, son of Nils. Olaf married Margreta Vangestad and their first child was a girl name Christina (After the grandmother, a typical Norwegian custom. Typically, the mother's mother's name is used, but here the father's mother's name is used). None of these children are listed on the 1865 (Norway) census.

This record lists him as a widower. Both he and Ragnild are listed as from the farm Stokkenes? The question mark on the record shows some uncertainty.

About 30 years ago, being without children, they sold their farm to Ivar Skaar, retaining a life interest therein. A few years later, Mr. Skaar sold out his rights to Anfin Nelson Hostager, a nephew of the deceased who owned the farm until 1906 when it passed to his son, Martin. Some 25 years ago Mrs. Anna Dalager, a niece of Mrs. O. A. Hostager came over from Europe and since that time her home has been with them and she has kindly and lovingly cared for them.
