Olava Antonie (Ingebretsen) Ingebretsdatter (F)
b. circa 1856, d. 17 January 1939
Pop-up Pedigree

     Her married name was Nilsen. Olava Antonie (Ingebretsen) Ingebretsdatter NOTE: This is a line based on research by a man in Norway. Though, listing of burial in Flekkefjord has me a bit concerned, given she was buried (based on burial records) with her daughter Anna and the Berglund family, in Riverside Cemetery in Norwalk, CT. Had FOMERLY listed Olava as Olava A. Jacobsen, which isn't that far off, given her FATHER was a 'Jacobsen', so that might have led to that line of thinking. However, given the detail of the research done by John Ludvigsen in Norway, have reason to believe without a doubt, that Olava is now correctly listed as Olava Antonie Ingebretsen. Again, the only 'fault' I see is her death/burial in Norway... given the obit, below.

AKA Olive and Oliva. All initial VR and ancestral information on Olava, initially from family and relatives info on AWT (this was the Jacobsen reference.

NOTE: Date of birth determined from date of death minus age at death of 74 yrs, 10 mths and 9 days. Though, based on other family members, how old some of these women would admit to, leaves a little room for error.. yes.. as much as five or more years.

17-Jan-1939 - 74 yrs, 10 mths and 9 days

9 days - 8th of the month
10 months - March
74 years - 1864

Should 74 years have been 84? Should it have been 79? Thus making year 1854 or 1859?

1920 Census for Wisconsin - City of Bayfield 17Jan1920 Supervisor's District No. 10, Enumeration District No. 23, Sheet 14A Third Ward.

Thomas A. Nelson, Son, Male, White, 15 years old, Single, had not attended school since Sep-1919 but could read & write, born in New York, both father and mother born in Norway, working as a Farm Laborer for a 'Private Party', for wages.

Olava's obituary (1939) read as follows:
