Looking for Ellide Christophersdatter parents names

[Cody Church]

I just came across my 12 Great Grandmother Ellide Christophersdatter, she was born in 1560. She had one daughter with Amund Bleken in 1582. She died in 1625 in Brandbu, Oppland, Norway, at the age of 65.

It was kind of Grethe Flood to have found an earlier discussion that references Amund Bleken and his daughter Gudbjør Amundsdatter Skari. However that discussion does not mention Elide Christophersdatter. The only mention of Elide Christophersdatter that I have found online is in various Family Trees on MyHeritage. The ones I have looked at contain no references to sources which is not too surprising and thus I put little trust in the information found in them.

 

Here is my translation of the part of the discussion linked to by Grethe, that mentions Amund Bleken and Gudbjør (probably his daughter). 

 

 

"Gubjør must have been a daughter of Amund Bleken who was a farmer on southern Bleken in Gran. Amund is mentioned in bailiff accounts and tax lists in the period 1599-1630 (older lists are not preserved). In the probate records after Gubjør Amundsdtr. Skari she is stated to have owned 1 quarter in Hennung and ½ of a  quarter? in southern Bleken. In a noble land register of 1615, Amund Bleken is listed as the owner of the same estate."

They give an approximate date for his death of about 1660, but here is what Ole Arlid Vesthagen has to say about Iver.  My rough translation.   "Ivers' father's name is not given in any sources. No sources state Iver's age, so the year of birth is completely unknown. That he should have been born approx. 1578 must be due to a pure guess. That he died approx. 1660 can also not be correct, he is listed in tax lists up to and including 1629 and probably died in 1629 or 1630."
