  • Norwegian Surnames in America
    Norwegian Surnames in America Surnames During the Immigration Period From 1825, the year of the first organized Norwegian immigration to the USA on the sloop Restauration, until the beginning of the next century, about 900,000 Norwegians immigrated to America. For most of them, the destination was the USA. During the 1800s , most Norwegians did not have a set surname. They had a given name (Anna, Knut), which was their actual name, and a patronymic, which consisted of the father’s name and the suffix son/sen (English son) as in Knut Andersen or dotter/datter (English daughter) as in Anna Larsdatter. This name provided information as to whose daughter or son the person was. If the individual lived on a farm, the name of the farm was added to the two previous names, more like an address than a surname. In an official document the name might look like this: Anna Larsdatter Helland, i.e. Anna is the daughter of Lars and lives on the farm Helland. Among the gentry during the 1800s, it had become customary to have a set surname. Gradually, society was becoming more organized with a growing bureaucracy, which put demands on a more dependable system for identifying its citizens, but it wasn’t until 1923 that the Norwegian Parliament, Stortinget, passed a law requiring all Norwegians to take a set surname or family name. When emigrants were registered on departure from Norway, and on their entry into America, they needed to have a surname. The choice of name could vary a great deal within a family, and it could also be changed during the first decades in the new country.

  • A Table in the Wilderness
    A Table in the Wilderness [Our Legacy as the Spiritual Successors of the Norwegian Synod] By Rev. Craig A. Ferkenstad We, in the Evangelical Lutheran Synod, trace the founding of our American Lutheran identity to a September day under two oak trees at a place called Koshkonong in Dane County, Wisconsin. On Monday, September 2, 1844, more than 150 years ago, a Lutheran pastor from Norway gathered with a small group of immigrants beneath these oak trees in the western part of the Koshkonong settlement. These men and women had come with their families from Norway. Already they had established settlements at LaSalle County, Illinois, in 1834 (Fox River); Rock County, Wisconsin, in 1838 (Jefferson Prairie and Rock Prairie); Racine County, Wisconsin, in 1839 (Muskego); and Dane County, Wisconsin, in 1840 (Koshkonong). Most had come for economic reasons. In their brightly painted wooden emigrant trunks many of them had packed their precious Bible, the catechism [Forklaring], a book of sermons [Huspostille] and a hymnbook [Psalmebog]; but they were lacking pastors to serve them. By the summer of 1844, there were neither any church buildings nor any fully organized congregations among the Norwegian immigrants. There were only two pastors serving the Norwegian Lutherans. Elling Eilsen was a lay-preacher who had consented to be ordained by a neighboring pastor. Claus L. Clausen had come the previous year as a teacher and, upon request of the settlers at Muskego, was ordained at that time. Such was the situation when the twenty-nine year-old J.W.C. Dietrichson arrived in Wisconsin. He was the first ordained pastor to come from Norway.

Brenner, B.A., M.Div. A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School, Marquette University, In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Milwaukee, Wisconsin May 2012 ABSTRACT The Election Controversy among Lutherans in the Twentieth Century: An Examination of the Underlying Problems. Author: John M. Brenner The Election Controversy of the nineteenth century re-shaped the face of confessional Lutheranism in America. The Evangelical Lutheran Synodical Conference of North America, the leading voice of confessional Lutheranism in America, bore the brunt of the dispute and ultimately dissolved. This dissertation examines the Election Controversy with special attention to the twentieth century attempts to resolve it in order to discover the underlying problems that have prevented the opposing sides from reaching a resolution. The dissertation is written from the viewpoint of the Wisconsin Synod, one of the synods involved in the controversy but often ignored in the discussion of it. The study is needed because contemporary observers do not have a good understanding of confessional Lutheranism and Lutheranism’s historic emphasis on doctrinal purity.

  • Winter 1999 Issue 4
    <!&ak 1Leabe5 Newsletter of the ELS Historical Society Volume 2 Winter 1999 Issue 4 This issue of l!&ak 1Leabe~ continues the biography of the Rev. Bjug Harstad (1848-1933) who was elected as the first president of the Evangelical Lutheran Synod in 1918. History finds him, one hundred years ago, in the gold fields of the Klondike The previous issue provided a summary of his life until that day in February 1898 when he left for the Klondike in an attempt to "solve financial problems" for Pacific Lutheran University which had been founded in 1890 by the Norwegian Synod. The cost of construction and the fmancial panic of the 1890s left a debt for which Bjug Harstad, the school's president, felt responsible. The letters, written for publication in the Pacific Herald, tell the tale of his journey to the Klondike and also of the reason for this momentous journey. This issue continues to tell his story after he returned to Parkland, Washington in 1899. Our thanks to his grandson, Dr. Peter T. Harstad, for preparing the biography. Rev.

To the memory of pastors and people, the known and the unknown, who planted the church on the broad prairies of North Dakota, we dedicate this book. cp^l-^-r/tf /^U^C+^S^-• Foreword There are about five hundred congregations of the Evangelical Lutheran Church, which are active in North Dakota today. Five hundred steeples rise over city, town and country. Each steeple represents a flock of God, which gathers for worship and Christian fellowship from Sunday to Sunday. Besides these steeples, there are many others where the work has been discontinued. In most cases, this has hap­ pened because families have moved away from the old farm community.
