Louis Qualheim (Lars A. Kvalheim) was a son of Abraham Josephsen and Pernille Monsdt. He was born on June 24, 1874, in the small village of Kvalheim, Norway and was baptized on July 26 of that year.

At the age of 20 and 9 months, he immigrated to the United States through Quebec, Canada, aboard the S.S. Laurentian. The ship left Liverpool, England on April 25, 1895 and arrived on May 6.

The ship's list or manifest indicates that Lars was going to meet "a friend" (A.F. Kvalheim) in DeForest, Wisconsin (north of Madison). His last residence was listed as Nordfiord, Norway. Records indicate that he crossed the border into the U.S. on the same day at St, Albans, Vermont. Louis settled in Chippewa County, Wisconsin where he worked as a laborer in a lumber yard, and there he married Carrie Quammen on December 25, 1898.
