of course, also lists his father's name. In both cases it is spelled
Peter (with a "t"), not Peder." Earlier persons may have had the
spelling, Peder.

of a page from the family bible in which their grandfather (Sylfest
Martinus Orwoll) hand entered, in Norwegian, the birth records of his
children, listing Sylfest Peder (with a D.). They add that their father,
Arvid, also remembers it being spelled with a D.
