ENGLEBRETSEN / ENGEBRETSEN in New Zealand
Hi I am a descendant of Engebret Engebretsen, he was my Great Great Grandfather. He came to New Zealand in 1872 from Christiana, Norway. He and his wife Sophie had 10 children, 3 in Norway and the other 7 were born in New Zealand.
My Great Grandfather was Bert (Gustave) Englebretsen. Born in New Zealand
I am looking to complete the family tree and seek information regarding my Grandfathers brothers and sisters.
There were 10 in the family. Two died at a young age, but Peter, Alfred, Anna, Otto, Clara, Bert, Carl, Emma & George all were brought up in NZ.
Would love to hear from any one with some information on the where abouts of these people and their descendants.
regards Scott

I have not heard of those people, they do not appear in my family tree. Do you know their parents names?
I am looking for my great Aunts & Uncles and families.
Peter Emil ENGEBRETSEN, born Norway May 27 1864, died ?
Clara Matilda FENTON (born ENGEBRETSEN), born Norsewood Apr 1 1873, died ?
Emma Susannah GOWER (born ENGEBRETSEN), born Norsewood 1882, died ?
George Edwin ENGEBRETSEN born Norsewood Oct 12 1884 , died Mar 6 1947 ?
I know nothing regarding their families, wives or children.
thanks Scott
Hi
Thanks for your efforts, but my family are in New Zealand.
They came here in 1872 and apart from my line back through my father, grandfather and great grandfather we know nothing of what happened to my grandfathers brothers & sisters as mentioned before in New Zealand.
