I am having a hard time finding my family farm, based on the link below, on Norgeskart. Can anyone help

 

Hi Stacy:

 

This is not really a farm, but a cottage - and with a name like "Skogheim" (literally "forest home") difficult to locate. As Ann-Mary pointed out in her last entry, the farm where this cottage was located is now farm #305 in Ringerike (which is not where Trude located it - that Skogheim is a different one, not your family's).

 

There is today no cottage by the name "Skogheim" on farm #305. However, the approximate location can be seen by tracing its neighbors on the 1900 census. If you go to the overview page for the census district at https://www.digitalarkivet.no/en/census/district/tf01037111000011 and go from entry 0035 to entry 0040, you will see that the census taker went, in order, from Briskodden to Stenbækken to Sætra to Skogheim to Løken to Velta.

 

At norgeskart.no, you can find Briskodden as 0605-305/95 (type this number into the search box in the upper left corner), Stenbækken (now Steinbekken) as 0605-305/92, Løken as 0605-305/51 and 0605-305/47, and Velta as 0605-305/345. These all form a line, and so this suggests that Skogheim would have been somewhere between 0605-305/92 and 0605-305/51 - perhaps where 0605-305/91 (Nyheim) is now (see https://norgeskart.no/#!?project=seeiendom&layers=1002,1015&zoom=11&lat=6722863.27&lon=223839.54&panel=searchOptionsPanel&markerLat=6722863.266139134&markerLon=223839.5438636372&showSelection=false&sok=0605-305%2F91).

And perhaps you already found this - in 1891 they lived at Brænna, which is now Brenna (0605-305/40), which is just a bit further southeast of Velta (see https://norgeskart.no/#!?project=seeiendom&layers=1002,1015&zoom=13&lat=6721401.45&lon=226287.25&panel=Seeiendom&markerLat=6721401.44921875&markerLon=226287.24999999997&showSelection=false&sok=Brenna)

Here you can see the precise location of the farm (zoom in on the red dot to see the farm houses): https://gardskart.nibio.no/landbrukseiendom/0605/305/5/0

However, notice that Erik Knudsen Skogheim just lived on a smallholding named Skogheim that belonged to farm nr. 5 (Holte). He did not own the farm.

Thank you so much, very helpful. This one was a tough one for me.

There is a ghost story connected to Brenna (Brænna)! I don't remember it very well, but I think it was something like a poltergeist outdoors - when they were in the house, they heard noise outside, banging on the walls etc, but noone was there... Can't seem to find the story when I Google, but it is written down in articles, I know.

I come from Nes i Ådal, which is the closest village.

Found it! The story is called "Spøkelset i Holtesæteren". It is too long to translate now, but tells the story from 1839. The servants Rønnaug Olsdatter and Ole Simensen, him only 17, were looking after the cattle and sheep which were grazing here for the farmer Erik Holte. The disturbances went on from September 24th to October 11th. Banging on the walls, on the door, noises like someone was running around the cottage, stones through the windows. They had the farmer come out and also the cantor from the Church (the vicar may not have been available). When the men didn't hear anything, they got in their boat to row home (there was no road going there). As they rowed away, Rønnaug came running out to tell them it started again. They rowed back, and once in the house the racket started up again. A stone was thrown at the door so that it flew open, and Rønnaug said later she saw the farmer being ghostly pale in the moonlight. The cantor sang a hymn, and while it was all quiet as he sang, they heard a ghostly, cold, mocking laughter when he was finished. Young Ole started on the Lord's prayer, but a stone soaring through the window, close to his head, cut him short.

They called out more men on later nights, with rifles, and when the noise started they fired out around the cottage. Also in broad daylight it happened - but then they would not see stones, just hear the thud of throws hitting the walls. The stories go on and on.... Large stones were thrown both through the windows and outside. In the end they left the cottage, as it was Autumn anyway and the cattle/sheep would be going inside for the winter.

 

This is from a local history magazine for Ringerike (the district to which Ådal belongs) from 1949, but it is from the notes of J. C. de Vibe. I think this may be Johan Christian Vibe (1799–1854), who was a vicar in Kongsberg among other things.
