The name comes from grav, which is a hole in the ground prepared by people. Probably there were animal graves here for hunting in old times. Some old documents exist which mention Graver. The first is probably from 1457 and names lagrettemannen [sheriff] Åsmund Folkeson "i Grefue". The document deals with an inheritance from Høye Momrak and was regarded as a forgery.

Reidar is not known from other sources. The user in the earliest skattelistene [tax rolls] is called Gunleik and may have been the father or brother of Reidar. In 1603 he had 3 tnK at Graver, 2 tnK at Lundehall and 1 tnK at Momrak. At the same time Talleiv Valebjørg had 1½ tnK at Graver. This resulted in a large debt at Graver, but these two families simultaneously shared ownership in Momrak and Graver together.

We know of two sons after Gunstein [sic, Gunleik] died. Talleiv got Lundehall, and Gunnuv Gunsteinson [sic, Gunleikson] got Graver. The skattelistene [tax rolls] mention Gunnuv all the way from 1603, and from 1609 he is an often-used lagrettemann [sheriff]. In 1611 he is written "Gunhild" and had then 3 tnK at Graver and 1 tnK at Momrak. The 1615 Matrikkelen [church records] still has Gunleik as owner, but then had Alv Fjalestad 8 mK. According to the 1624 odelsjordeboka [allodial land book] Gunnuv had 2½ tnK and his brother Talleiv Lundehall ½ tnK. Gunnuv also had ½ tnK at Momrak.

The name Lundehall comes from Lund on a slope/incline.

It was Gunleik Graver who had the farm in 1603, and probably it was also he who was user in the first skattelistene [tax list]. In any case it was his son Talleiv Gunleikson who took over. He had all of Lundehall, 2 tnK, and allodial property in both Graver and Momrak. He owned ½ tnK at the farms in 1624.
