HALVOR ALVSON was just a young boy, no older than seven, when his father died. His mother remarried, to Olav Åvoldson Snarteland, when HALVOR was about twelve. HALVOR was living with his mother and step-father at Nedre Veum in 1669. The Nedre Veum farm is in Fyresdal kommune on a road that we know today as Highway 355. The Veum kyrkje [church] is located there. In 1672 HALVOR's step-father traded his land at Nedre Veum for land at Nedre Bergland in Mo. Nedre Bergland is just off of today's Highway 38, which runs north to Dalen. As the road winds north from Nedre Bergland towards Dalen, it passes within a kilometer of the Skafså kyrkje. MARGIT JONSDOTTER's father moved to Åse in 1670, but died between 1673 and 1675. HALVOR came to Åse about 1689. He was married to MARGIT by then. There was a property dispute, in 1692, between HALVOR and TROND SONDRESON. TROND acquired Åse at that time. A few years later, HALVOR's daughter and TROND's son would marry. After losing Åse, HALVOR returned to Nedre Bergland. A few years later he began having financial problems, and by 1697 had to mortgage Nedre Bergland to Johan Arnolt. Shortly after that HALVOR inherited land at Åmli, Skafså, and Selstad. In 1699, he inherited Gausbu, and may have used that farm for few years. |
