Rasmus Pedersen of Krogshuus born 1766-1767

[dn26520]

Rasmus Pedersen of Krogshuus married Kari Haagensdatter who was born in Os, Hedmark, on 30 August 1793: http://www.arkivverket.no/URN:NBN:no-a1 ... 660597.jpg
in Inderoy. I do not believe Rasmus Pedersen was from Inderoy. He does not seem to match any of the various Rasmus Pedersens who were born there about that time. I also am unable to find a confirmation record for him. When he married he was a dragoon in Motzveldt's regiment. In fact here is a recording of Motzfeldt in the 1801 census: http://digitalarkivet.no/cgi-win/webcen ... =2189#ovre

What I would like to know is, is there a record anywhere of who served in this regiment and where they may have been from. Any information regarding the origins of Rasmus Pedersen, my great-great-great-great grandfather would be greatly appreciated.

You probably have this already - here are Rasmus and Karen on the 1801 census for Sparboe parish together with their 3 children Peder, Haagen and Christian

I am a descendant of their daughter Randi who was baptized at Schei, Sparbu in 1803:

I also know when and where Kari Haagensdatter died and was buried. What I do not know is where Rasmus Pedersen was from and who his parents were. I also cannot find, after many years of very extensive research, where or when he died.

You wrote: I also know when and where Kari Haagensdatter died and was buried.

Perhaps you should put that information also on this forum - I don't know if it will help, but you never know.

Kari was actually baptized at Tolga, Hedmark, which was before Os became a separate annex parish. She was baptized on 2 September 1770:

She died 13 June 1854 at Steenkjar and was buried at Schei, Sparbu, on 25 June 1854:

I hope this helps!

There is a Rasmus Pedersen who was born in 1766 at Homeldalen to Peder Olsen and Caren (sic) Rasmusdatter: http://gda.arkivverket.no/cgi-win/webce ... =1006#ovre
They also had a daughter Elen born at Hastad in 1764: http://gda.arkivverket.no/cgi-win/webce ... k=575#ovre I cannot find a record of their marriage or a record of any other children. Any information regarding this family, especially their origins, would be greatly appreciated.
