Records & Research
No public record could be located and verified for this specific Oline Paulsdater, born 9 July 1869 in Norway, daughter of Paul Olsen (1822-1885) and Embjor Iversdater (1828-1905). Searches across Geni, WikiTree, FamilySearch, MyHeritage, Geneanet, FindAGrave, BillionGraves, and the Norwegian National Archives (Digitalarkivet), using multiple surname and patronymic spelling variants (Paulsdatter/Paulsen/Paulson, Iversdatter/Iversdater) and the parents as anchors, returned only same-name individuals who are demonstrably different people (different parents and/or birth years and places). Audit confirms these were correctly rejected: none matches this person on two or more independent anchors, so none can be promoted to a finding. Beyond the trusted 2006 family-report facts, nothing new could be confirmed; her birthplace, death, burial, any marriage, and children remain unknown.
No additional public records have been confirmed yet — only what the family report records.
Open questions (5)
- Birthplace, death date/place, burial, any marriage/spouse, and children for this Oline Paulsdater (b. 1869-07-09) are all unknown - no citable record found.
- Region of origin is unconfirmed. The mother's given name 'Embjor' is most characteristic of the Gudbrandsdalen area (e.g., Sor-Fron/Lesja, Oppland) and the Nordfjord area of western Norway; the family report gives no place, so the parish could not be pinned to query primary baptism records on Digitalarkivet.
- A Geni profile titled 'Embjor (1822 - d.)' (https://www.geni.com/people/Embj%C3%B8r/6000000176535927835) surfaced as a possible mother candidate. Audit attempted a direct browser fetch: it returned HTTP 200 with no usable body (Geni profile bodies require login), so it remains unverifiable. Its listed birth year 1822 also does not match the report's mother (Embjor Iversdater, 1828-1905), so it is likely a different person. Worth a manual logged-in check but should NOT be treated as the mother without confirmation.
- REJECTED same-name candidates (different person, confirmed by audit; noted to prevent future mis-merges): Oline Paulsdatter Sindre, b. 1868 Innvik, Sogn og Fjordane, d. 1941 Olden - parents Paul Rasmussen Sindre and Magnilde Rasmusdatter Yttreide (per kvien.net/aner), wrong parents and birth year/place. Akabine Paulsdatter, b. 1863 Hamaroy, Nordland, d. 1891 - parents Povel/Paul Abelsen and Anna Martine Pedersdatter (per Geni), wrong given name, parents, and birth year. Oline Iversdatter (1822-1879) and Oline Ostvik (1869-1923) on FamilySearch - wrong patronymic/parents. None matches on 2+ independent anchors.
- Next steps a human could take: search Digitalarkivet (digitalarkivet.no) full-text baptism records for a girl christened ~July-Sept 1869 with father Paul Olsen and mother Embjor Iversdater once a parish/region is identified; and check FamilySearch Family Tree and Geni while logged in for the parent couple Paul Olsen (1822-1885) + Embjor Iversdater (1828-1905) to find their children list.
