Cautionary Notes


  1. •  If you are uncomfortable with any content please let me know.  This may include issues of personal information or of accuracy.


  1. • A majority of my source material is from Norwegian censuses, church books and grave sites.  In some cases I have relied on information contained in the personal  genealogy of other individuals.  I cannot ensure the accuracy of the latter.  All my sources are documented.


  1. •  Information becomes less reliable when the subject is more historic.  This is most applicable to persons of the 17th century and earlier.


  1. •  Finally, this genealogy is not a family tree.  It's more of a family forest and in that sense it can seem like a maze, so keep one hand on a wall as you wander.
