Martha Collungsdatter Lunde

[Patricia Carlsen Mikkelsen]

I just discovered a new ancestor and the family name is not familiar. She is Martha Collungsdatter (f. 1725), daughter of Collung Collungsen of Lunde (Hetland), who is the son of Collung Michelsen. I wondered if anyone could tell me the origin of this name.

Thank you, Ann-Mary!

 

I did find these records - except that Collung Collungsen was baptised in 1697. I thought someone could tell me something about this name (Collung), which I have never seen before. Of course, any other information about this family is greatly appreciated.

Before Marith Endresdatter, Collung Michelsen was married to Stenvor Olsdatter. I think he had some children with her, too.

 

One family tree that I found showed Collung from Meling in Hetland and Marith from Skjæveland in Høyland.

 

Thanks again!

This is a source that gave me some good information about this family. I think I found it by doing a Google search! I have been able to confirm much of this in the scanned parish registers.

 

I would ask if someone had a bygdebok that tells about this family, but they seem to move around a lot. Should I look under Lunde or Meling in Hetland? I don't have a farm name in Mosterøy.

 

Any advice for me?

I thought someone could tell me something about this name (Collung), which I have never seen before.

 

Kollung was a genuine rare Norwegian name. The last reminiscent I find in 1801 census is Ingebor Kollingsdatter.

It sounds Norwegian. Kol (meaning coal?) is used as first part in the name Kolbjørn, and the ending -ung is known from name Sveinung.

 

The name is conserved in some place names. like Kollungtveit in Grindheim, Vest-Agder.

The etymologist O Rygh says the man's name Kollung was not so rare about 1500-1600. He explains the farm name Kollungtveid.

[Patricia Carlsen Mikkelsen]

Many thanks, Harald! I thought it was an unusual name! But since my ancestor was female, the name did not carry down to more recent years in my family tree.

The name Kollung is still in use today in Norway. Try Google.
