 | Engagement and Marriage Record of Jøran Torkildsdotter and Reidar Narveson
The engagement record of Jøran Torkildsdotter is shown on the second page in the 2nd last heading under “Trolovelse” (Engagements) year 1732, about half way down it states:
‘On the 3rd Sunday of Advent in Holmen parish, Reidar Narveson and Jøran Torkildsdotter were engaged,’
From this website at http://youronlineroots.com/helligdager.php, it is determined that the 3rd Sunday of Advent in 1732 was on December 14, giving us the actual date of the engagement.
The marriage record for Jøran is on the same page as the engagement and is in the last column under "Brudevielse” (Weddings) just a little ways down from the year 1733 and it states:
‘Kyndelmessedag (Candlemas day) at Holmen Church, Reidar Narveson and Jøran Torkildsdotter were married.’
From the website at http://dinslekt.no/ordliste.php#ord_1161 we see that looking under ‘Kyndelmessedag’, it always lands on February 2nd. So the couple were married on February 2, 1733 in Holmen Church in Sigdal Parish.

 | Excerpt relating to Torkild Kjetilsson Bjørndalseie taken from Sigdal bygdebok, "Sigdal Og Eggedal", written in 1953 by Andreas Mørch.
Excerpt is from the section under the Kvisle farm and on a smaller section of Kvisle where Torkild Kjetilsson lived called Eie. On the left hand side of page 55 we see an entry for Torkild Kjetilsson Bjørndalseie: it says he was born in 1730 (which is clearly a typo or mistake) and he married in 1789 to Ragnhild Olsdotter Kvislebråtan, born in 1765 and they had a daughter Ingebjørg born in 1790. They lived at that time on Kvisleeie. Ingebjørg died on the Flaget farm in 1820. Torkild died in 1791, 35 years old. The widow (Ragnhild) was married in 1793 to Tolleiv Gulleiksson Flaget and moved to the Flaget farm.
From the bygdebok we see that Torkild and Ragnhild named their daughter ‘Ingebjørg’ (after Torkild`s mother, Ingebjørg Larsdotter) and not Ingeborg as we see normally written in the church records.
