Death record of both Torkild Kjetilsson and his nephew Kristoffer Jakobsson
Torkild Kjetilsson died on the Kvisle farm in 1791 and was buried on June 2, 1791 in Holmen church yard, Sigdal parish. On page 271, under the Holmen column, year 1791, entry #13, it states: the 2nd of June (1791), buried was Torkild Kjetilsson Kvisle'eie', age 35 years.
Directly underneath the entry for Torkild Kjetilsson is listed the death of his nephew, Kristoffer Jakobsson. Kristoffer Jakobsson was born 1786 on the Desarud farm and was baptised July 23, 1786 in Holmen church, Sigdal parish. Kristoffer died in 1791 on the Desarud farm and was buried June 2, 1791 in Holmen church yard, Sigdal parish, on the same day as his uncle Torkild Kjetilsson Kvisle. It states Kristoffer`s age at time of death as 10 months old, which clearly must be an error, as his brother Ola was baptised in December of 1790 making him about 6-7 months old at the time of Kristoffer`s death.
