He was 38 years old in the census for 1865.

His year of birth was recorded as 1829 when he died.


Halvor had a child with Anne Maria Christiansdatter.


Halvor next married Berthe Marie Hansdatter, daughter of Hans Andersen Strønæs-Plass and Marthe Hansdatter, on 11 Jun 1861 in Askim church, Askim, Østfold, Norway.1 (Berthe Marie Hansdatter was born on 23 Nov 1837 in Trøgstad, Østfold, Norway, christened on 26 Dec 1837 in Trøgstad, Østfold, Norway, died on 4 Mar 1876 in Solberg, Askim, Østfold, Norway and was buried on 15 Mar 1876 in Askim, Østfold, Norway.)


  Marriage Notes:

Berthe Marie was 24 when she married.

The Bygdebok records that they had two daughters, Helga Halvorsen and Caroline Randine. The census of 1865, however, shows a third daughter, Josephine, born before Helga. Halvor and Berthe owned and farmed one (18a1) of the Solberg farms in 1865. Besides their two daughters, Caroline and Josephine, they had a servant on the farm: Helene Hansdatter, 23 years old from Trøgstad. Was Helene possibly Berthe's sister?

In December 1965, when Josephine Mathea was baptised, they were called Halvor Mathisen og Berte Maria Hansdr Solberg.

In the census for 1900 Halvor was a widow. He owned and farmed the Solberg (gnr.14, bnr.1) farm in Askim. His daughter Helga lived with him, unmarried and doing farmwork. Helene Hansdatter (born 1842, Askim) was still living with him as a servant and farmworker. 1 3 4
