[#40895] Stormælen Søndre and Odden farms in Lille-Elvedalen

[Gjest Mary Ellen Peterson]

Could someone please tell me the distance between Stormælen Søndre farm and the Odden farm in Lille-Elvedalen? Would it be likely that the people living on these farms would have known each other in the 1860s? Thank you very much, Mary Ellen

Next to Lille Elvedalen (Alvdal today) Tønset (Tynset today) is situated. In 1850 Nils Anderson (1821-1898) on Tuveng mellom (also called Stormælen) married Kirsti Nilsdatter (1832-1874) from Odden. Three of their ten children went to America – Nils in 1880, Ellef in 1882 to Fargo, Ole in 1882 and Kjerstine to Boston in 1892
