The RootsWeb records look some inaccurate. Merete Toresdatter was not from Foss in Kvås parish, she was from Foss in Valle.

Thanks Harald. We have spoken before on line and I believe we are related in a few places back in time in Skofteland and or Tredal. I appreciate your help again. Best Regards to you Harald!!

I am curious why Marete Toresdatter would have a father named Halkild Rolfsen? Maybe I am not reading this correctly. Thanks

[Gjest Harald Søren Storaker]

I was also some inaccurate - . I meant that the gg-grandmother of Gunhild, Merete Toresdatter Foss, had got a wrong location of the Foss farm in the RootsWeb records. Gunnhild Halkildsdatter Foss was the bride in the 1730 marriage, and Halkild Rolfsen Foss was Gunhild's father.

Thanks again Harald, now it makes sense to me.
