Hans Andersen Jæger and daughter Eli Hansdatter Jæger -  I do not have a Bapt. for daughter Eli; I have no children at all for Hans and Hellene Pedersdatter Hachtner. 

 

No, of course you have no baptism record for her. The date is 1738-05-15 and Hans A. Jæger was still a young and unmarried man at the age of 22. Thus, there are obviously two mistakes here: 1) Eli was his sister, not his daughter, and 2) her name was Eli Andersdatter.

Also noted I have two burial dates for Hans?

 

His burial date 1757-10-01 is mentioned on page 30 in the survey I sent you a month ago.

It seems strange communicants would name their job and employer as part of the process.

 

Remember that a maid generally lived with her employer's family. Thus, when mentioning who her employer was, she also gave her own address, which gives more meaning.

 Regarding Hans Andersen Jaeger, who seems to have been the most frequent communicant among the Jaegers, I could have perhaps seen the error since he can be found at least twice before (pg. 161 -1735, and pg. 259 -1736) attending with sister Eli Andersdatter.

On Hans burial date, I had made a notation of 7 Jan 1747 before I received your survey. The entry shown below is of course for his first wife. Glad to have your translation that she died in child birth.  I would not have caught the meaning of the phrase between her name,  (Hellene Pettersdatter Hachtner) and age at death.

To continue my research in Kongsberg on silver miners - I thought I would take a look at some from my paternal family.  I believe Anund Olsen (b. abt. 1687?) Nedre Skaug, Sendingseie was one, this could be him in 1711 manntall:

Anun/Amund had sons as follows:

Lars (Jun 1742),  Halvor (Sept 1749) Anund (Feb 1752, and Christen (May 1759).  

 

Lars had two sons Anund (Feb 1769) and Halvor (1780). 

Anund had three sons: Anund (1780), Nils (1782) and Ole (1790)

 

The following possibilities show up in the miners census for these  later generations:

So far I have not found enough information in available census data to tie these people (with very common names) to the families from Sending/Senning  farm in Sandsvaer.
