Christian Peter Dahl Documents
Letters written by Christian Peder Dahl to family in the United States and Norway between 1876 to 1930
The first two letters were sent from Norway to Christian's brother who already had gone to the U.S.
The third letter was sent from the U.S. to a brother he left in Norway.
The fourth letter was sent to Emma Christian Peder’s niece (Randi’s Grandmother) in Norway.
The fifth letter was addressed to Simen (Sedsel's brother, Emma's father, and my great grandfather ) just a few weeks after Simen's death, so he did never get this letter.
The sixth and seventh letters were sent to Emma in Norway.
