The main sources can be accessed through my External Links. The records on my site are also linked to and from related ancestors. Below, the records are in chronological order. Return to the Genealogies Page (same as the link above) or browser back on your computer. Enjoy! As you find on the Genealogies Page, parents, Hans Pedersen & Johanne Pedersdtr, each born in 1770, are central to nearly all of these genealogies, both their descendants and ancestors. The reason being that each of two sons has a major role in Matson-Garson family history. Ole born 1812 is my direct descendant on the Matson side; Peder born 1793 is my direct descendant on the Garson side. The Records: Page 1 | Page 2 Marriage 1759:Peder (Per) Larsen Staboe & Johane Olsdtr. Staboe. 28 December 1759. These are the parents of Johanne Pedersdtr Opsahl, below (Baptism 1770), and of two other children, Berthe (Birthe) and Ole. Based on 1801 Census, Peder would be about age 28 and Johane Olsdtr about age 36 at time of marriage. Baptism 1763:Birthe Pedersdtr: Daughter of Peder Larsen Staboe & Johane Olsdtr (Marriage 1759).

Baptism 1793: Peder Hansen Aalterudstuen: Record #4418: Hof Kirke: 10 Nov 1793 . Child of Hans Pedersen b.1770 & Johanne Pedersdtr b.1770. This is the Peder Frodalen we know in the Matson-Garson family. See below, Marriage 1817 for Peder Hansen & Siri Jensd. Dyren. Baptism 1793:Mari Larsdatter Hoelstuen: Baptism Hof Kirke 15 Dec 1793. Sister of Mads Larsen who is father of Syver Madsen. Parents are Lars Olsen & Marte Zachariasdatter. Census 1801: Hans Christiansen & Johanne Pedersdtr & 3 Children in 1801 . Hans Pedersen b.1770 is Hans Christiansen here! They are on Aalterud farm. This is clearly the Hans Pedersen born 1770. The three children, known to family, are the proof. Why he carries Christiansen as his last name I don't know. These are very early times and patronymic naming was the standard. Later records carry the Pedersen name. Baptism 1810: Ole Hansen Osvolden: Record #307: Feiring Kirke: 23 Oct 1810 . Ole Hansen #1. This Ole died as infant in 1911. Ole Hansen born 1812 was likely named after the first Ole. Baptism 1812: Ole Hansen Osvolden u Kobberstad: #??? Hof Kirke: 8 Feb 1812 . Ole Hansen #2. Died about 1901 in Dalton, Minnesota. This Ole is my direct ancestor on my paternal grandfather's side.
