[#62423] Knudsen/Tellefsen in Oyestad, Aust-Agder

[Gjest Juneann Caughey]

Seeking information on children of Tellef Knudsen 1828-1869. 1st wife: Lise Rekecca Lerestviet, 2nd wife: Gunhild Hendricksdatter. Their names: Inger Katrine Knudsen (Knudsdatter) b. 1855, Laura Helen Knudsen (Knudsdatter) b. 1858, Pauline Mathilde (Knudsdatter) b. 1860, Severina Olava Knudsen (Knudsdatter). Knud Ludvig Knudsen (Tellefsen) b. 1870, Helene Oline Knudsen (Knudsdatter or Tellefsdatter) b. 1874. Could their surname be Tellefsdatter? I would like to know what became of them? Marriage name, dates, deaths.

Since their father's name was Tellef, girls would be called Tellefsdatter and boys Tellefsen (unless there's an early case of a name in -sen being inherited as a family name, in which case all could be called Knudsen). That is, were looking for information about the lives of:Inger Katrine Tellefsdatter, b. 1855Laura Helene Tellefsdatter, b. 1858Pauline Matilde Tellefsdatter, b. 1860Severine Olave Tellefsdatter, b. ?Knud Ludvig Tellefsen, b. 1870Helene Oline Tellefsdatter, b. 1874

There is a bygdebok for Øyestad. Could someone look for these people there?

There are two sets of bygdebøker for Øyestad.(1) Øyestad bygdebok. This contains roughly the same information as supplied by Juneann in (1). The paragraph on Tellef Knudsen's family has no information about the fate of the children.(2) Gamle gårder i Øyestad. This was going to be a three-volume work, with the relevant farm (Veding) treated in volume 1. Volumes 2 and 3 appeared in the early 80s, but volume 1 seems never to have been published.
