Brandsnes in Nedre Folldal Bygdebok

[dn26520]

Iver Jonsen, the son of Jon Pedersen and Kari Estensdatter was engaged to Ingri Pedersdatter in 1784. At the time it lists them both as being from Brandsnes, I assume in Nedre Folldal:

I also have found a Randi Jonsdatter who was confirmed from Brandsnes in 1775. Could this have been a daughter of Jon Pedersen and Kari Estensdatter?:

It would be extremely helpful and appreciated if someone could consult the Folldal bygdebok for Brandsnes in Nedre Folldal to answer these questions. Thank you.

Thank you for this information. Is this the earliest information available about Brandsnes? It is really of no use to me and does not answer my question. What I would like to know is if Randi Jonsdatter could have been a sister to Iver Jonsen. The information regarding Iver Jonsen and his family come after the time I am inquiring about. Thank you.

Hi

No Randi mentioned in the bygdebok as a sibling to Iver, but he had a sister Ragnhild. (I think the names Ragnhild and Randi sometimes was used almost as different "spellings" of the same name, but not sure.)

The parents of Iver and their children lived at Røsteplassen.
Jon Pedersen, dead before 1762, married to Karen Estensd., born 1720/25, died 9. March 1823. (She was married a second time.)
Children of Jon and Karen:
1) Peder born 1751, next user of the farm after his stepfather Kristoffer
2) Esten born 1754, lived at Lien
3) Iver born 1757 lived at Ryfetten
4) Ragnhild, confirmated 1775, godmother 1795
