Thank you, Wilfred, for the link to the copy register. It is much easier to read the names on that page. But there are still some parts I cannot read well. What are the two words after "Christian Olsen"? What is the word on the line below "Johanne Nielsdatter"? What is the birth place of Johanne?

I would like help reading a marriage entry. It is number 17 on the page (5 April 1853). I believe the groom's name is Christian Olsen, though I cannot read the "Christian" in the handwriting. The bride's name is Johanna Nilsdatter. I would like to know what the other words are in the names column ...

Thank you, Rolf. I agree with that reading now that I know what it is.

I am looking at a confirmation entry for Christian Olsen (born 20 Feb 1825). I would like help reading the date of the confirmation. It is entry number 4 for year 1840. The page can be found at this link:

Thank you again, Ivar, for the excellent translation. Very interesting to learn about the smallpox vaccinations.

Thank you, Ivar, for your detailed translation. It looks like the dates the banns were read are the same as for entry No.56, but I can't read what the month was. Please also translate the additional columns to the right of banns column in entry No.57.

I would like assistance reading and translating entry No.57 on this page:

Engebret Olsen was my G-G-G-grandfather.

Thank you, Ivar and Marianne, for your translations. That is very helpful.

I believe this is a person who changed his name in America to Thomas Johnson. It is unclear to me what his Norwegian given name was, though it looks like he was named after his mother's father. His death record in La Crosse County ...

Thank you, Hans, for the history lesson. I will investigate the Swedish forum.

Some of my ancestors came from the Stigen farm (Dæli-eie) in Ringsaker, sub-parish, Veldre. I found mention of them in "Veldre Bygdebok" (1974), page 69. Interestingly my 3G-grandfather, Ingebret/Engebret Olsen (1808-1884) is not listed in the book, probably because he emigrated to America in 1858 ...

Thank you, Ivar, for your interpretation of the marriage entry. "Flisager" is an interesting new farm name to investigate.

I am looking for help reading the marriage entry for Ole Ingebretsen and Eli Tollevsdatter, which is the last entry on page 87 at this link:


Ringsaker 1807

Thank you Johannes for the additional details. I will send you a message with my e-mail address.

My thanks to Anne, Ola and Paul for your excellent reading of the the entry. This is very helpful.

I have located the marriage of Amund Eriksen and Mari Pedersdatter and would like help interpreting the entry. The register page can be found at this link:

Kvikne 1849

It is entry number-4 under 1849.

Thank you, Trond and Ola, for your analysis. There are at least four places in Norway named Nymoen, the closest appears to be the one in Sondre-Land, though even that seems a long way from Nord-Fron. I can't find Moløkken on any map, though it supposedly was in the parish of Søthorps; does anyone ...

I'm hoping to get some help interpreting a marriage register entry from Nord-Fron. The register page can be found at this link:

Nord-Fron Register

The entry of interest is number-9 (22 Juni) under the year 1882. I've been able to understand the most essential parts of the entry but on the ...
