How to find traces of a possibly american family
I am looking for traces of the American family of my Norwegian father-in-law. He possibly lived in Reno, Nevada for 7 years sometime between 1950-1960. He was supposedly married there. He is now deceased. His name was Karl-magnus Sætre born 21.09.1932

Do you know if he Americanized his name? If you would like to share his IRN or as many details as you can, I would be happy to help you find him. It is also helpful to know where you have searched previously.
