Biography

Records of SÅVI are first found in 1615 in the odelsmanntalet [census of allodial owners], where he is listed as owner and user of Underdal. That same year he is listed on the matrikkelen [tax rolls] for Tveiten, a sub-farm of Midjås Nordre. In 1617, he got all of Midjås Nordre in a trade with Olvar Lauvvik and his son Roald Bergland. He also obtained some smaller deserted farms, including Lille Tveiten, Haugestøyl, Rugdeli and Rykkeli.

The name of SÅVI's father is not found in the legal records, but it is quite certain that he was the son of LUTTAN KNUTSON, who is mentioned under Underdal 1 in the Mo Bygdebok.

From 1624 to 1626, SÅVI was a church warden. Then, there are no records of him until 1647, when he appears in the matrikkelen [tax rolls]. He is listed as the heir who had the farm. Presumably his wife had died by that time. His probate was held as late as 1686.

6.      Såvi
N. 1618-1640  

I 1617 makeskifte Olvar Lauvvik og sonen Roald Bergland bort N.Midjås med støylane og øydegardane Tveiten, Lille Tveiten, Haugestøyl, Rugdeli og øyde Rykkeli til Såvi Midjås mot 7 markebol i Hægeland, Vrådal. Såvi hadde tidlegare butt på Underdal 4 og hadde nok bytt gard med Gunnar. Det var og ein Såvi Tveiten 3 som åtte ½ tnK i Reindal i 1615.

Farsnamnet til Såvi er ikkje nemnt i kjeldene, men arv i Hægeland og namnebruk skapar lite tvil om at han var son til Luttan Knutson som er omtala under Underdal 1. Kor Luttan budde er ukjent.

Etter makeskiftet i 1617 åtte Såvi og arvingane hans heile garden som odel. Han var kyrkjeverje i tida 1624 til 1626 men vert borte frå kjeldene i 1640, og i matrikkelen 1647 er det arvingane som åtte garden. Truleg var det kona som var død, for det ser ut til at Såvi bruka Lofthus under Bakken 1 nokre år etter den tida. Skifte etter han vart halde så seint som i 1686. Odelen var då Midjås med Tveiten 2 tn 2mK og Reini 7½ kvart tnK.

 
English translation

In 1617 Olvar Lauvvik and his son Roald Bergland traded away N.Midjås with the meadows and the deserted farms Tveiten, Lille Tveiten, Haugestøyl, Rugdeli and deserted Rykkeli to Såvi Midjås in return for 7 markebol at Hægeland, Vrådal. Såvi had earlier lived at Underdal 4 and had probably traded a farm with Gunnar. There was also a Såvi Tveiten 3 who had ½ tnK at Reindal in 1615.

The name of Såvi's father is not mentioned in those sources, but inheritance of Hægeland and farm name create little doubt that he was a son of Luttan Knutson who is mentioned under Underdal 1. Where Luttan lived is not known.

After the trade in 1617 Såvi and his heirs had the entire farm as allodial property. He was a church warden in the period 1624 to 1626 but was missing from the sources in 1640, and in the 1647 matrikkelen [tax roll] it is the heirs who had the farm. His wife was probably dead, for it seems that Såvi used Lofthus under Bakken 1 some years after that time. Probate was held after he died as late as 1686. The allodial property by that time was Midjås including Tveiten 2 tn 2 mK and Reini 7½ quarter tnK.

4.      Såvi
N. 1615  

Såvi Underdal var eigar og brukar av Underdal i odelsmanntalet 1615. Me finn han ikkje i skattelistene, men dei finst ikkje for dei åra. Det er nokså visst at dette var Såvi N.Midjås som er omtala nærare der.

 
English translation

Såvi Underdal was owner and user of Underdal in the 1615 odelsmanntalet [census of allodial owners]. We do not find him in the skattelistene [tax rolls], but they do not exist for that year. It is rather certain that this was Såvi N.Midjås who is mentioned near there.

3.      Såvi
N. 1615  

Matrikkelen 1615 nemner Såvi Tveiten. Han åtte ½ tnK i Reindal og høver godt som den mannen som fekk heile Midjås ved makeskifte i 1617. Såvi vart med det brukar av Midjås 6, truleg med Tveiten. Før det budde han på Underdal 4.

 
English translation

The 1615 matrikkelen [tax roll] names Såvi Tveiten. He had ½ tnK in Reindal and fits as the man who got all of Midjås by a trade of real estate in 1617. Because of that Såvi became the farmer of Midjås 6, (and) probably also Tveiten. Before that he lived at Underdal 4.
