Hei, Jim.

There are some interesting sites if you Google for BOTH names.
I typed "Hieronymus Heyerdahl" (need the quotes) in ALL THESE WORDS and
then entered Thor Heyerdahl in THIS EXACT WORDING OR PHRASE.
Don't know if you read Norwegian or not (I certainly don't - not yet,
anyway), but Wikipedia shows some interesting "possible" connections:
"http://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heyerdahl";

Have a nice day!

I am writing an article about a trip to Norway that I took with my wife and would like to know if Thor Heyerdahl (of Kon-Tiki fame) was related to the former mayor of Oslo, Hieronymus Heyerdahl? Your help would be greatly appreciated....
