Well, Adolph Groth Monrad is my, - in norwegian, tippoldefar (the father of my great-grandfather..english expression????)His son Oscar is my great-grandfather, and Oscars daughter Solveig was my grandmother). I have in many years tried to find out who he was, and the link between A.G. Monrad and Ekle, - this was interesting! No, the link to Johannes G. Monrad is not confirmed. But my grandmother spent part of her childhood at Ekle gård, - who she talked of as relatives. Johannes G. Monrad was son of Fredrik Monrad from Ekle. So it might be that Johannes only used the sirname Fredriksen (means son of Fredrik),- but why??? We also know that Johannes G. Monrads`wife is not Adolphs mother, - and that two other sons of Johannes lived with Adolphs family in Trondheim when they were students. Why?? The first time he is registrated as Monrad, is when he gets married. Is he first registrated as Fredriksen because his identity had to be "secret"?? Where was he 1850-1865??? Did he come to Trondheim/Ekle to stay with his father, - may be the mother had died? I don`t remember her name right now (Kristiane??) But I know that Adolph named his oldest daughter after his mother. I will follow this research with a lot of interest!! And if I find out something, I can share it with you if you like!<BR/><BR/>Mvh, MaritAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5546880933506756401.post-77829817550986894422008-11-19T02:55:00.000+01:002008-11-19T02:55:00.000+01:00Very interesting Petter.
