  Notater	Henta frå FamilySearch: Halvor Holjesen was born in 1814 in Hovin, Telemark, Norway on the Vassveit farm. His parents were Holje Halvorsen and Ingebjorg Pedersdatter. He had four sisters and one brother. In 1841, Halvor married Astri Alvsdatter, who was also born in 1814 in Tinn, Telemark, Norway. Astri had a twin sister and one younger sister. Her parents were Alv Olssen Nappegaarden and Bergit Ostensdatter Graver. Halvor and Astri had three children: Bergit, Helge and Ingebjorg. Information handed down says that Halvor loaned out money to a deserving person who couldn’t make payment. As a result, Halvor lost his holdings. Discouraged over his losses, he immigrated to America. On May 6, 1852, Halvor, Astri and their three children left Norway. Like many Norwegian immigrants from that area, they first went to Muskego, Wisconsin. Halvor died of cholera in Muskego, Wisconsin. When Halvor knew that the end was near, he called to his daughter Bergit and asked her to sing the hymn: "Idah er naadens tid, Idah er Gud at finde." Today is a time for grace. Today is finding God. Bergit was 10 years old then but she had been well instructed in her religious books so she knew how to comfort her father. Halvor’s sister, Anne, and her daughter who had also emigrated also died from cholera.
