Wow... Thank you so much for all this information! I've been doing research in the arkivet for three years now and have not come across some of these details. I particularly enjoyed the pictures of the gravestones and the information on the descendents. Perhaps you could share with me how you searched for those. Mange, mange tak! Rob
