Peder I TWENGE

Abt 1860 -

• Name	Peder I TWENGE
  Birth	Abt 1860
  Gender	Male
  Death	Unknown
  Notes	Or Peter J Tvenge. Find A Grave calls him Ole Peter Twenge (1877-1950) which is clearly incorrect. There were two Peter/Peder Tvinge/Tvenge/Twenges in the same part of North Dakota at the same time. Peter Twenge and Thora Hovrud had a daughter Thea born 20 May 1883 in North Dakota. P. Tvinge and his wife Berit (née “Tomson”) had a daughter Caroline Ragna who, at the age of 14 years, 2 months, was confirmed at Bethany Lutheran in Hatton, North Dakota, on 8 Dec 1895. Peder Tvenge and his wife Thora had a daughter Thea who, at the age of 15 years, was confirmed at Bethany Lutheran in Hatton, North Dakota, on 30 May 1898. Find A Grave calls him Peder Pederson Tvenge (1846-1903) and his wife Thora T. (1850-1940). Both are buried in Bethany Cemetery in Traill County and the entry for Peder says that he and Thora were married in 1873. Thus, Peder P. Twenge, who had the daughter Thea and, earlier, a son Ole (b. 1877) as well, apparently, daughter Kari and son Peter, cannot be the father of Caroline and Ida. Peder I Tvenge was issued a land patent for property in Traill County on 5 Feb 1884. There are records of a Peder I Tvenge involved in a court case, possibly a divorce, in the 1890s in North Dakota.
