It would be easier to help you if you revealed where you found this information and which sources you have checked.

Some of your information may be wrong. How sure is you that this Marte is in your lineage?

 

According to "Hjørundfjordboka" (Strømme and Standal, 1990) vol. 4, p.604 ("Rekedal"),

Marte's mother was from Rekkedal ("N Eriksdotter Rekkedal", while the father was from Stokke ("Peder Arneson Stokke")

(opposite of your information).

"N" and Peder took over the farm after her parents, Erik Jetmundsson (unknown origin) and daughter of Ivar Øye (name unknown).

(Vol. 5, p.110, "Stokke") Peder's father was Arne Pedersson Tryggeset (approx.1615-1697; uncertain years), holding Stokke from approx 1647;

wife unknown.

(vol. 4, p.530, "Tryset") Arne's father was Peder Torsson, (apprx 1570-1635), holding Tryset from approx. 1606.

 

Notice that all of this is based on very sparse sources; some tax lists, "manntal" (census with males only; 1664, 1666, 1701),

"skifte" (division of estate), etc.

Existing Church records begins in 1733 (with limited information content).
