John Hove

mrslisaheil — 2010-11-17 04:25:31Z

My great grandfather was John Hove, and all I know was that his family was from Norway, perhaps around Stjordalen. He was born sometime between 1870 and 1885, and he married Laura Severina Augdahl Jackson. I believe he emmigrated between 1885 and 1890, and lived in Minnesota.

Anyone have a match to this information?

An Ella Hove appears in the 1900 US census for Winneshiek Co. IA. But she has 6 children listed as born in Iowa also.

You'll find John O. Hove with his wife Ella, a daughter, mother and brother living in Winneshiek Co. IA for the 1880 US census.

The 1870 US census shows John living in Winneshiek Co. IA in his mother's household.

SHUBIN family

mckerr78 — 2010-03-20 04:50:26Z

This is a tough one! I am looking for any information on the parents of Sydney Abrams SHUBIN born 14 May 1890 in Latvia immigrated to America in 1900 and married Anna SHUBIN (her maiden name) who also immigrated to the US but in 1910. Supposedly, they are buried in Pennsylvania but I can find no record of this. I am especially interested in finding the ancestors of these two individuals. Anyone out there who can help, I will love you forever!

Thanks, Carmen Kerr

Re: Oregon/Washington Howe/Hove Family History

thoraway — 2009-09-19 16:56:58Z

Is it your family in the 1920 US census in Clatsop Co. Oregon?

You never specifically listed "Magnus Bernard"s fathers name. You could get some idea of his birth year from US censuses, year of immigration to the US would also be important information.

No, it is not likely that there was ever a family crest. That would be rare in Norway and really only found among royalty or persons of semi-noble families originally from other countries.

What is the relationship that makes you mention a Nils Hove (Nils Gustav Gerhard Eriksen (Hove), Charles, etc? Please clarify.

US Naturalization papers, including the first petition or application for that process, will give VITAL information about the origins of the family. Seek those out.

Oregon/Washington Howe/Hove Family History

jhowe166 — 2009-09-14 10:13:15Z

Hello all!
My name is Justin Howe and I started this thread to post questions, answers and facts/allegory regarding my father's side of the family.

I am the grandson of one of the first generation of Norwegians in my family to be born in America. Therefore, as you can probably tell, my father and uncle both have some solid oral history on the matter.

My great-grandfather was Magnus Bernhard (Ben) Howe (Hove), born in either Vestfold fylke or Bergen in Norway in 1904.
There is a bit of an issue with his father's last name: Supposedly, according to his obituary from 1982, his father's last name was Eriksen, which according to my father was the last name of another Norwegian side of our family, most probably in the maternal line somewhere.

Any information on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Is there a link between the Eriksen and Hove family lines?

Regardless, our last name was Hove before our family arrived on American shores. I am sure that it was a farm name, and it referred to the gaardstadt wherewith it was associated. Another question is: does anyone know of that particular gaardsnamn (farm name) and which fylker (counties) may have Hove place names?

Does the Hove family have a crest, or coat of arms? If so, how may I obtain information on it?

I would also like to know when Nils Hove was born and what his full name was. I think it may be Nils Gustav Gerhard Eriksen (Hove), but I could be mistaken.

Whom did Nils marry? Are there any of you who know more about our 20th century family line? For example, are there any people on here related to Charles L Howe I, Magnus B Howe, Bernard Howe, etc. on here? If so, could someone provide some names and other info on our relatives?

Something to keep in mind: my father's side of the family have primarily (probably exclusively) resided in the extreme northwest of the United States since Magnus was a little boy in Astoria, Oregon. There are members of the family as far north as Bellingham, Washington (that I know of), and as far east as Prairie City, Oregon (again, that I know of).

One of these days, when I take my wife to the Scandinavian Fest in Astoria, Oregon, I'll find out more about my family but until then, the WWW is the best research option. 87)

Thanks for checking this out!
Til next time.

Amanda -

I'm just starting to look at my ESPESET(H) relatives from Vik, Sogn Og Fjordane. I suspect from family story, photos, etc that the ESPESET and HOVE are "cousins". I haven't pulled it togther yet. I'm just starting to read the Vik Lokalhistriske Arkiv. I'm sure you are literaly years ahead of me.

I have a Anders Bendicson Undi ESPESET b. 1813, d. 1850, and his son Olaf Anderson ESPESET b Feb 8 1849, VIk, d. Sept 16, 1930, Lansford North Dakota.

Just saw your post. One of my grandfather's brothers (possibly, Henry Hove, born in 1895) went to ND. Their father's name was Olaf Hove. Could your Olaf be his son or grandson?
