Petra Mathilda Wilhelmsen
I am trying to find a death record for Petra Mathilda Wilhelmsen nee Madsen, born 15 Nov 1837 in Manger, Hordaland, Norway; baptized 1 Dec 1837 at Manger Parish. Father: Peder Mathias Madsen; Mother: Madam Beatrice Madsen nee Engelsen? Petra married 9 April 1858 to Claus Olai Wilhelmsen. Four children: Bernhard, Minde, Claudina (my great-grandmother), and Arent.
She and her husband appear in the 1900 census of Bergen with son Arent. Husband Claus died 1915 and his record indicates he was a widower, so Petra would have died between 1900 and 1915. Have searched all Parish registers in Bergen for that period available on the Digital Archives of Norway, but cannot find a death recorded for Petra
