    The original "Bakken" farm site was in Kvikne, Oppland, Norway. Andreas Olsen Harboe Berg (Bakken) bought and owned the farm in 1835. Andreas was "sort of a doctor" and healer and born in 1803. Prior to Andreas, there are indications of people on the "Bakken farm dating back to 1722. Ola Arnesen Bakken and Reidar Bakken owned the farm in 1722. Ola Arnesen Bakken lived there in 1750 with his wife Ingrid Stenersdatter. They sold the farm in 1794 to Hans Hansen (Ola's nephew). Hans was married to Gjertrud Olsdatter. They had a son, Ola Hansen. Ola Hansen drown in a small lake called Slangen in Skabu.

    Andreas Olsen Harboe Berg (Bakken) married Anne Olsdatter (Klevstad) in 1824. Klevstad is located in Kvam, Oppland, Norway. When King Oscar the first of Norway decided to garnish farm land in the 1860's making land owners virtual slaves, Andreas and Anna (both at age 64) emigrated to America in July, 1869 with their daughter, Karen Andreasdatter Bakken (33) and her husband Amund Mortensen (Massinglokken) (35) and their children, Mathias(8), Ane(4), and Amund(2) The Massinglokken name later became Lerbakken. They traveled from Christiana, Norway to New York via Glasgow, Scotland. The ship was the SS Columbia, built in 1866. The description of the ship reads: Clipper stem, one funnel, three masts (ship-rigged for sail), iron construction, single screw and a speed of 10 knots. There were accommodations for 80 cabins and 540 3rd class passengers. After arriving in America, they first settled near LaCrosse, in Washington Township, Wisconsin. The 1870 census shows their location as Washington Township, LaCrosse County, Wisconsin. Bohemia (the post-office for Washington Township), was also just a couple of miles from Timber Coulee, Wisconsin where Andreas' grandson, Ole Olsen the Elder Bakken would start raising his family (about 13 years later). In about 1871, hearing of wide open fields of land for home steaders in Minnesota, Andreas and his daughter Karen and her husband Amund and their children crossed the Mississippi and re-located to Oscar Township, Ottertail County, Minnesota near Rothsay, Minnesota. It was during this re-location, that Mathias J. Amundsen (Lerbakken) at about age 10, accidently drowned in the Mississippi River. Andreas' wife Anne Olsdatter survived the ocean voyage and trip to Wisconsin, but did not survive her first year in America. The reason for her death is unknown.
