Carrie was born in Norway to Even Emil and Johanne Marie Olsen Halvorsen November 11, 1878. She was the first born of four children. Her sisters were Martha and Thora Susanne, and her brother was John. She and Adolph emigrated to the US in 1902, however in the 1930 Census, it is stated they were not naturalized.
June 6, 1903 she married Adolph Ludwig Abrahamson in Milwaukee, WI. Adolph and Carrie had ten children, the first two were twins. Emil and Einar were born January 2, 1904 and Einar passed in 1988, but sadly no records are found for Emil other than his birth. In the 1905 Census, Einar is listed, but Emil is not. The twins were followed by Arnold (1905-1987); Ruth (1906-1984); Harold (1908-1983); Esther (1911-?); Clarence (1913-?); Karen "Dolly" (1915-?); John (1916-2006); and Grace Betty (1919-1998).
Adolph, her husband, was a farmer, and I believe her father in law, who was living with them in the 1930 Census, was also a farmer.
