Generation: 1

  1. 1.  Nils was born in 1853 (son of Hans Nilsen and Ragnhild Svennsdotter).

    Notes:

    !SO: A-020-c
    PROBLEM: (A-20-c) Palmer gives father's name as Hans Nilsen Skonneset (later
    Bekkeset by becoming owner of that farm).
    This he writes in 1982, apparantly after translating a Norwegion
    History for Sammie Lois Lang. Palmer lists 8 children.

    Nils married Ingebjor Knutsdotter Skarpasen in 1876. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


Generation: 2

  1. 2.  Hans Nilsen was born about 1822; died in 1912.

    Notes:

    !SO: A-020-c
    PROBLEM: (A-20-c) Palmer gives this name as Hans Nilsen Skonneset (later
    Bekkeset by becoming owner of that farm).
    This he writes in 1982, apparantly after translating a Norwegion
    History for Sammie Lois Lang. Palmer lists 8 children.
    A-020-d says he was listed as 43 years old in an 1865 census, making his year
    of birth about 1822.
    A-020-d says that in 1901, Hans transferred the farm to his son, Halvor Hansen.
    Death date from A-020-d. Year 1912, age 91.

    Hans married Ragnhild Svennsdotter in 1846. Ragnhild (daughter of Svenn Gunnelsen and Gunhild Nilsdotter Oslien) was born about 1822. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  2. 3.  Ragnhild Svennsdotter was born about 1822 (daughter of Svenn Gunnelsen and Gunhild Nilsdotter Oslien).

    Notes:

    !SO: A-020-c
    PROBLEM: I am assuming the probable sirname that would be hers at this point
    without documentation would be the `dotter' of her father.
    (A-020-c) Palmer lists this name as Raghnild Svensdotter Bekkeset.
    (A-020-d) says b. date was about 1834 and Marr date was 1846.
    The b. date seems wrong. Further on A-020-d says she was 43 years
    old in an 1865 census. This would make the b. date about 1822.
    The marr. date seems to be a direct translation.
    NOTES: (A-020-c) Alert Palmer Aanestad makes some comments in this handwritten
    account of his understanding of Gunhild's family in 1982,
    probably after his translation of some Norwegian History sent
    to him by Sammie Lois Lang that year. He now lists 3 children
    for Svenn. Some of Palmer's comments:
    1. Any relatives of ours through Sven Gunulsen's descendants still
    living in Norway would be through Raghnild and Hans Nilsen.
    2. Of Hans Nilsen's children: the girls who married would not have
    the name, Bekkeset.
    3. The son, Nils, married but obviously did not live on Bekkeset, as
    son Halvar was the owner after their father died. Halvar sold the
    farm to Nils Torseinsen of South Bekkeset, no relative of ours.

    Children:
    1. Kari was born in 1846; died in 1863.
    2. Gunhild was born in 1848; died in 1886.
    3. Gjertrud was born in 1851.
    4. 1. Nils was born in 1853.
    5. Svein was born in 1856; died in 1889.
    6. Ragnhild was born in 1859.
    7. Sigrid was born in 1862; died in 1916.
    8. Halvor was born in 1868; died in 1941.


Generation: 3

  1. 6.  Svenn Gunnelsen was born in in Norway (son of Gunulf Svensen and Ragnild Torsteinsdatter Oftstuen); died on 12 Jul 1863.

    Notes:

    !SO: A-011. Information listed from T.K. Loftsgard's book, NORE UVDAL
    INFORNOGYNE, Book Two, page 612: This information is from
    Nordahl Skarshaug of San Jose, CA and comes by
    way of Sammie Lois Lang in REF: A-011, who relates that this
    book is a history of Numedahl - a genealogy of all the people
    who lived in Nore, Uvdal, Rodberg. Loftsgard lists her great-
    grandfather as Svenn Gunelsen of Fonnebo, who married Gunhild
    Nilsdotter Oslien. Their son was Gunul Svenson, who married
    Kari Knutsdotter Korsgarden about 1843. So their children were
    GUNDERSON or SVENSON, depending on if they took their father's
    first name, Gunder (Gunul) or his last name, Svenson.
    Gunul Svenson had two sisters: Gunhild, who married Torbjorn
    Enerson; and Raghnild who married Hans Nilsen.

    -------
    PROBLEM: Lois (A-110) list name: Sven Bekkeset
    Palmer (A-020-c) lists name, Sven Gunulsen Bekkeset.
    Also see notes for Gunnel Svenson.
    (A-020-d) gives d. date as 1858 at age 82. He was then written as
    Lerbak under Fonnebo.
    NOTES: Palmer (A-020-g) says he remebers his mother mention the name Fonnebo
    frequently but at the time did not realize the significance.
    A-019 indicates Svenn was from Fonnebeit (is this the same as
    Fonnebo?)
    A-019 lists name as Svenn Gunlfsen from Fonnebeit.
    A-020-O lists name as Sven Bekkeset from Nore, Bekkeset, Norway.

    Svenn married Gunhild Nilsdotter Oslien in 1814. Gunhild (daughter of Nils Knutson Bratrud Oslien and Gunild Larsdatter Mykstu) was born in 1784 in Bekkeset, Hol, Buskerud, More og Romsdal Fylke, Norway; died in 1866. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  2. 7.  Gunhild Nilsdotter Oslien was born in 1784 in Bekkeset, Hol, Buskerud, More og Romsdal Fylke, Norway (daughter of Nils Knutson Bratrud Oslien and Gunild Larsdatter Mykstu); died in 1866.

    Notes:

    !SO: A-019
    NOTE: Lois (A-010) lists name as Gunhild.
    There seems to be pretty good agreement as to how to list this name.
    A-020-O lists name as Gunhild.
    (perhaps the name should be listed Gunhild Nilsdotter from Oslien)
    A-020-d lists death date as 1866 at Bekkeset and says she was 82 years old.
    The b. date is by extrapolation.

    Children:
    1. Gunhild Svennsdotter
    2. Gunnel Svenson was born in 1816 in Uvdal, Norway; died on 5 Apr 1879 in Gunder, Clayton, Iowa, United States; was buried in Gunder, Clayton, Iowa, United States.
    3. 3. Ragnhild Svennsdotter was born about 1822.
