    Excerpt relating to Torkild Kjetilsson Bjørndalseie taken from Sigdal bygdebok, 'Sigdal Og Eggedal', written in 1953 by Andreas Mørch.
    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.
    Death record of Ragnhild Olsdotter
    Death record of Ragnhild Olsdotter
    The death record of Ragnhild Olsdotter states that she died on the farm Nævra in 1832. On the left page entry #32 it states:
    Ragnhild Olsdotter, “husmannsenka” (tenant farmer or crofter`s widow) age 67 years and living on Nævraeie, died April 10, 1832 and was buried on April 19, 1832 in Sigdal parish. It also asks “if cause of death was a contageous disease, then which disease, or if cause of death was an accident”, and it was none of these that contributed to her death.
