  • Notes 
    • Ragnhild was baptized on 03 Mar 1805 in Flå, Nes i Hallingdal, Buskerud, Norway, and confirmed there on 20 Oct 1823. When she was married on 25 Nov 1828, she was living with her parents on Gabkind.

      She and Gulbrand were living on Padderud in the 1865 census (with daughter Ingeborg), and gave their attestation that they were leaving the parish on 02 Apr 1868. The three of them departed from Drammen, Buskerud, Norway on the bark "Fauna" on 30 Apr 1868. Ragnhild & Ingeborg arrived in Quebec, Quebec, Canada on 03 Jul 1868.

      Her husband passed away on the boat on the way to the United States and was buried at sea.

      Ragnhild, age 80, is found living with Ole & Anna Volleggen in the 1885 census of North Fork. It appears that she was also known as Rachel or Racil. According to the 1875 census, she was living with her son Gilbert. 1880 census shows her living with her son Knud.

      The marker was created based upon data that was believed to be correct, however the Big Grove Lutheran Church records show the 9th to be the burial date.
