The area in Norway from which both John and Kari emigrated is commonly known as Hadeland. At the southernmost tip of Oppland County, Hadeland is made up of the kommunes (political units similar to townships) of Gran, Jevnaker, and Lunner. John and Kari's ancestors lived on farms in Brandbu, which is the northern part of today's Gran.
