Which church in Voss?

[Carla J Tweeton]

From Vossaboki 2, side 360

 

.  Ein Aslak Flatekvål, som var underoffiser, vart I 1806 tilsett som politibetjent på Kongsberg

 

Aslak Sjursen Flateqval, born May 1762 married Brita Erichsdtr.,  6/28/7? who was born in 1761.

 

They came to Kongsberg where their dtr. , Ragnil Aslaksdtr. was baptized 25 Dec., 1800.  She was

 

gm to Anund Gulbrandsen 24 Dec. 1821 in Kongsberg.  These were my gt. gt. grandparents.  I would like to

 

send Christmas cards with the correct church in Voss to relatives.   WouldVoss be the correct church?

 

I understand there are other churches also in or near Voss.  Thank you.

As Sven's research shows, Aslak was baptised at Vinje church; Brite at the main Voss church.
