Hello M. Arnstad,
My name is Ole Hermod Sandvik, and I am from Stjørdal (the same place as Eli Arnstad, who responded to this site 30 of March this year).
Due to my profession as an officer in the Norwegian army am I at the moment living in Oslo, the capital of Norway.
My Great-grandmother Mette Oline Mathiasdatter Sandfærhus was the daughter of Mathias O. Arnstad and Dorthea Kristoffersdatter Stokke. They were not married at that time, which was more complicated at that time.
I am searching for more information about Mathias and his family in the US.
Are there any pictures of Mathias?
Last month I visited the farm Arnstad at Skatval, which the three brothers left in the late 1860's. The owner is redoing the main house, which is the original house since the mid 1800-century.
I have digital pictures of it.
Take care
Ole Hermod
