Norwegian Genealogy

With the exception of Ireland, no nation sent a larger percentage of its people to the US than Norway. From the “Norwegian Mayflower,” the Restauration and its “Sloopers,” to the “Lady with the Pen” who helped settle the Republic of Texas, immigrants from Norway brought a fascinating heritage. They have built a sturdy ethnic community that still survives across North America.
