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 showed no usable content (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.
