You have to check records in Norway: Panella's children's birth/baptism
records, her death record, census records if there are any, etc. Those records
should confirm whether or not she was born in Spain, and if so, hopefully one of
them will provide her surname and town of birth. I think Norway is the place
to start your research.

Good luck!
