Notes:

Svale meldte utreise til presten i Sund 1899, men har muligens reist ut før. Han sto konfirmant i 1880 og kan ha tatt hyre på båt like etter. Enkelte kilder i USA har ham innflyttet der i 1881. Han ankom New York via Liverpool 4. mai 1899 på skipet Aurania. I 1910 finner vi Svale og familien i Norfolk, Virginia - i Farmers Creek District. Han er da ført i census som Harry Hendriksen. Ifølge death certificate i 1919 var han carpenter, 55 år, hadde bodd 35 år i USA da han døde av blodpropp i hjernen etter nesten seks uker på sykehus.

--
Svale announced his departure to Sund parish in 1899, but has possibly left earlier. His confirmation was in 1880 and he may have taken work on a ship soon after. Some sources in the US have him there in 1881. He arrived in New York via Liverpool 4 May 1899 on the ship Aurania. In 1910 we find Svale and family in Norfolk, Virginia - Farmers Creek District. He is then entered in the census as Harry Hendriksen. According to the death certificate in 1919, he was a carpenter, 55, had lived 35 years in the United States when he died of a blood clot in the brain after nearly six weeks in hospital.

Svale married Calda Alvilda Eleonore Krogh on 18 Aug 1901 in Our Saviour's Lutheran, Kings, New York. Calda (daughter of Kristian Antons. Krogh and Eline Hendriette Witbro) was born on 2 Oct 1883 in Alsvåg, Bømlo; was christened on 4 Nov 1883 in Finnås; died on 25 May 1948 in Brooklyn, Kings, New York; was buried in Greenfield Cemetery Hempstead.

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 on 27 Jul 1879 in Bakklandet, Trondheim. Eline (daughter of Erik Andreas Johans. Witbro and Jonetta Henriette Feragen) was born on 12 Apr 1860 in Strinda, Trondheim; died on 23 Nov 1896 in Portsmouth, Norfolk, Virginia; was buried in Oak Grove Cemetery, plot E442.
