[#14657] Hovland in Eggedal early 1600.

[Gjest Vidar Larsen]

Information from Odd Arne Helleberg's article on Busness-ætta (Gjallarhorn no 26, p241 Autumn 2000) shows that Ingrid Steinarsdatter, a daughter of Steinar Halvorsen Kravik and Ragnild Toreson, married Tor Nilsen. They had a son Steingrim Torsen who farmed Hovland in Eggedal after 1610 and was married to Tone Ormsdatter with a reference to see Sigdal and Eggedal III 984 and 1055.Helleberg also indicates that Tore Steinarsen, a son of Steinar Halvorsen Kravik and Ragnild Toreson, had a granddaughter, from his first marriage, who married Gulbrand Sjursen Sporan. This was the first marriage of Gulbrand.According to Nore-Uvdal bygdebok (under Sporan p 437) Gulbrand's third marriage (around 1650) was to a Sigrid Kittilsdatter Vetterhus who according to the same bygdebok (under Nordre Vetterhus p 859) was the daughter of Ingrid Steingrimsdatter from Hovland in Eggedal. Ingrid was a daughter of Steingrim Tordsen and she was married before (well before??) 1650.I would appreciate to know if the bygdebok for Eggedal (to which I have no access) could confirm (or otherwise) if Steingrim Torsen, grandson of Steinar Halvorsen Kravik, was the same person as Steingrim Tordsen who was the father of Ingrid Steingrimsdatter Hovland.Mvh VidarPS I read Norwegian

Hei Vidar :-)Looks like Mørch confirms the father and the daughter. Bygdeboken says (III, p 1055 and -56):Steingrim Tordson fra Frøvoll var gm Tønni Ormsdtr. I 1642 var det skifte etter Steingrim, enka ga opp sitt til deling også. Barna var visst disse: 1 Jon Steingrimsen, var alt død, sønnen Lars fikk 8 setting i Bøle, Lars var gm Sigrid Kittilsdtr. og var op Sporan, sia Hørjusgard i Nore. 2 Datter gm Knut Helgesen som fikk 6 skinn i Medalen og 1 setting i Skåla. 3 Live gm Eivind, var alt død, sønnen Sebjørn Skjønne i Nore fikk 7 skinn i Søland. 4. Datter gm Halvor Hersgarden i Gol, fikk 6 setting i Bakli, 2 setting i Frøvoll. 5. Ingrid Steingrimsdtr. fikk 6 setting i 'Berg nedom veien' (Berget) var vel gm Kittil Reidarsen Vetrhus i Nore. 6. Gunhild Steingrimsdtr fikk 4 setting i Fagerli med bygsel, 3 setting i Bøle og 1 setting i Søland, gm Torstein Halvorsen Medalen. Dette skiftet ble holdt i Bøle.'Hilsen Gro

Thanks Gro. I can now follow Steingrim's ancestors in Helleberg's articles in Gjallarhorn. Mvh Vidar
