Biographical History
Inga Davidson was born on November 3, 1898 in Revik, Vågsøy, Norway to Mons Brobak and Magnhild Heggen. Mons was a fisherman, and Magnhild was his second wife. The Brobak's lived on a farm, and in addition to Inga, there were seven other children in the family: Mikal, Anton, Marie, Anna, Alette, Johannes, and Anders. Inga attended school for eight years before being confirmed, after which she began working in a cannery. Following the cannery, Inga worked for a family and then for Dr. Olvik in a health institution south of Bergen. Inga's older brothers had immigrated to America when she was fairly young, and when she was twenty-six, she received a letter from Anton and decided to join them in Seattle, WA. Language was a difficulty at first, but Inga attended night school and learned from the families she cooked and cleaned for. In addition to housekeeping, Inga also made dresses at a shop in Seattle.
