| I am working toward the development of the genealogy of Knut Nilsen, who came from Norway (Nord-Aurdal parish registry), Skautval district. He was born on March 18, 1850, son of Nils Knudsen and Anne Arnesdatter Ranum. Knut was born on the Bruket farm in Skrautval, and immigrated to the United States around 1869. Knut eventually settled in Minnesota. Alfred Ranum, Knut's son, is my immediate grandfather on the Ranum side. The name Ranum seems to have come from the name of the ovre farm (Raneim/Ranum), which Knut adopted when he came to the United States. Any additional information anyone might have regarding Knut, or other family members, is greatly appreciated. All information I have is readily available to anyone as well. |
