Per Ivarson Undi
Per Ivarson Undi (1803 – 28 July 1860), also known as Peter Iverson, was an early Norwegian-American homesteader in Wisconsin Territory.〔(''The Early Emigration from Sogn og Fjordane'' (Fylkesarkivet i Sogn og Fjordane) )〕
==Biography==
Peder Ivarson was born on the Undi farm in Vik, Sogn og Fjordane, Norway. He was one of eight children born to Iver Pedersen (1762-1837) of the Gullbrå farm in Vik and Inger Akseldtr (1775-1838) of the Skjervheim farm in Myrkdalen, a small valley in the municipality of Voss. Peder Ivarson was married to Anna Davidsdatter from the Skjervheimm farm in Myrkdalen. Peder Ivarson, together with his wife and their children, became the first emigrants to the United States from the Sogn og Fjordane county in Norway. His brother-in-law, brother Peder Davidsen Skjervheim, had emigrated from Hardanger in 1837. Per Undi had also been influenced by Ole Rynning's ''True Account of America'' (Norwegian: ''Sandfærdig Beretning om Amerika'') which was published during 1838.〔( ''A Comprehensive Statement about the Emigration to America from Vik in Sogn.'' (Rasmus Sunde, translated by C. A. Clausen. Sogndal, Norway: Sogn og Fjordane University, 1983) )〕
The family left the community of Vik in 1839. They came on the schooner ''Magdalena Christina'', which arrived in New York harbor July 6, 1839. The family settled in Wayne Township near the community of Wiota, known in its early history as Hamilton's Diggings in Lafayette County, Wisconsin. Peter Ivarson was granted titled to land under the provisions of the Homestead Act on April 1, 1848.〔(''Passenger list 1839 - schooner Magdalena Christina'' (Norway-Heritage) )〕〔(''Vik i Sogn through the centuries'' ( Vik i Sogn, Norway) )〕
Peter Ivarson has been recognized as a leading force of change by both Norwegian and American historians. The significance of his immigration to America would be especially felt within the Norwegian communities of Vik and Voss. He frequently wrote letters back to friends and family in his home parish. Resulting from his efforts of persuasion, numerous families immigrated to Wisconsin including his siblings: Ragnilda, Erik, Ole and Axel Iverson.〔( ''Sociological Theories and the Great Emigration'' (Lindsay Lowell, Norwegian-American Historical Association.
