I was actually sure when I answered. After I asked if he was Norwegian, it struck me that he probably came from Iceland or Greenland instead, and your hints had told me that he was an explorer.

Next one is rather difficult, I believe: Female, deceased.

The hints about his doings were quite obvious indeed.
 
My hint concerning the place of his birth pointed at Greenland indeed. Iceland is for the most part European. The European and North American continental shelves meet at Þingvellir, some 40 km (25 miles) northeast of Reykjavik.
The line of the eastern coast of Greenland, from north to south, continues with the coastline of North America after the Baffin Bay.
 
Did this female die before 1800?

I didn’t know about Þingvellir. But at least I found the right man! Smile

Yes, she died before 1800.

You never cease to amaze me! I had more clues ready for you. Did you already know about her or did you google?

I’m rereading Satanic Verses, and Hind plays an important part in the book. I also check these notes:
