I thank you for your reply. The John Christiansen I am looking for "did" spend time in the United States before he came to Canada where he met a Canadian girl and they had a baby in about 1948. John told his "wife's" family that he had been in the navy when he lived in Norway. I am not sure if that was the "Royal" navy or just the merchant marine navy. Sometimes, these things get lost in the translation. He apparently met his Canadian wife on a ship. Could this still not be your Hans? My John would have been born about 1924 or thereabouts. I have learned that one of the most common reasons that people get totally "lost" is that they have gone to live in another country. What do you think!!!

Hi
Your John Christiansen is not The Hans I am looking for information on.
Hans came from a farm on an island on the west coast of Norway. He was one of 4 brothers that immigrated to the U.S.
2 of the brothers spell christiansen different ways and the other 2 including Hans I have no idea how they spelled their last in the U.S.
Norway Kristiansen
U.S. Christiansen
Christenson
Thanks for the reply to my posting
Ed

I am looking for a "John" Christiansen (Christenson or Christianson). Your "Hans" could be a John or Jon. This John Christiansen I am looking for was a seaman, supposedly in the Royal Navy in Norway or Denmark. He always worked on the boats. "My" John Christiansen came to Toronto, Canada, his wife (maybe girlfriend) had a baby girl in 1948 named Nancy. John supposedly took her back to Denmark to live but that may not have been the case. I assume he was born around 1924 but it may have been earlier.

I am desperately trying to find John & Nancy Christiansen for Nancy's half sister, Dorothy. Nancy was given up by her biological mother to be taken to Norway or Denmark where she was raised by her father, John. Hopefully, John and daughter Nancy are still alive, John, a seaman, being born in Norway about 1924 and Nancy in 1948 in Canada. She left Canada at about 3 years old being handed around her mother's family to look after her. Are there any obituary lists or any way she can be found. We have photographs of her. She likely does not know she has a half sister, who is anxious to meet her.Any suggestions would be gratefully received.
