General Notes:
Widowed in 1896, Christian Krough is still in the Norfolk city directories of 1897. He moved to Brooklyn, New York for a few years with his two youngest children, Willie and Anna. He was a machinist.
In the 1900-census he is living with his sister Anna (Annie) and daughter Anna (Annie) in Brooklyn. Willie Edward had passed in February, before the census count on June 1. Gladys and Calda were then in North Carolina to be raised by, and helping, his oldest daughter Hilma (Halma/Helma). Calda got married in Kings, NY in 1901.
Christian went to Massachusetts for work.
In the 1905 New York city census Anna and Gladys are living with Svale and Calda in New York.
By 1906 Kristian is in Massachusetts where he in September marries Ragna Emilie Vold. From 1910 onwards he is in Weymouth Ward where he dies in 1924.
By 1910 Hilma was back in Norfolk, Calda was in Tanner Creek, Norfolk (in 1915 she is in Brooklyn). Anna is not with either of them. In 1912 miss Anna M. Krough is the city directories of Norfolk. Gladys and Anna Mae both got married in Weymouth, Mass, 1912.
I haven't found Gladys in the 1910-census, but she is in the Norfolk city directories from 1906, and counted there in 20 and 30, and then by 1935 in Brooklyn.
1910- and 1920-census has: Weymouth Ward 1, Norfolk, Massachusetts, Christian and wife Ragna Emilie Vold - Krough/Crough. Says he emigrated in 1885, 1900 says 1887.
Kristian married Eline Hendriette Witbro, daughter of Erik Andreas Johans. Witbro and Jonetta Henriette Feragen, in 1880. (Eline Hendriette Witbro was born in 1860 in Strinda, Trondheim, died on 23 Nov 1896 in Portsmouth, Norfolk, Virginia and was buried in Oak Grove Cemetery, plot E442.)
Kristian next married Laura Richardson Taylor on 29 Jan 1901 in Norfolk, VA. (Laura Richardson Taylor was born in 1872 in Norfolk, Virginia, USA and died after 1940 in Hempstead, Nassau, NY.)
Kristian next married Ragna Emilie Vold, daughter of Axel Hansen Vold and Josephine Amalie Olsen, on 6 Sep 1906 in Brooklyn, Kings, New York. (Ragna Emilie Vold was born on 3 Dec 1877 in Oslo, christened on 17 Feb 1878 in Paulus Menighet, Oslo and died after 1931.)
