Notes:

Shown as Christopher Larssen Heen on Lars’s birth record in the Vang church book. Traci’s tree refers to him as Kristoffer L Haenseiga.

In Jim’s Valdres Slekt tree, he is Christopher Larsen Heenseiga Søyne, #I11511.

Jim’s notes: For a time he was a postman. Born on Hensbakka and took over as a tenant farmer from his father until 1833, when he became a tenant farmer on Øvre Søyne. from 1833-1848. Left for America in 1853 with wife and five children on the "Olave Kyrre." In the church book emigrant list, his name was "Soyne," but he used the surname "Hen" or "Heen" after immigration. Included in his household in the emigration list was a servant, Marit Håvardsdatter Lajord (his wife’s niece, #23240), whom he married after his first wife's death. {Which would not seem to be possible unless there was a fair amount of time between his wife’s death and his death which are supposedly in the same year.}

Traci’s tree has him dying in Michigan in 1853. This makes sense from the notes for Sigurd.

Christopher Larssen Söine, 52, and his wife Anne Syversdatter, 49, emigrated from Vang on 12 March 1853 with their children Lars, 23, Anne, 20, Marith, 17, Syver, 11, and Ole, 10. Apparently traveling with them was a Marith something (maybe Klausdatter) Lajord, 23.

Christopher married Anne Sjugurdsdatter LAJORD on 1 Apr 1830 in Vang i Valdres, Oppland, Norway. Anne (daughter of Sjugurd Madsson LAJORD and Anne Madsdatter MYHRE) was born in 1805 in Vang i Valdres, Oppland, Norway; died in 1853 in Michigan. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

She is I327 in Jim’s VS.

Jim’s notes:

Hun giftet seg med gutten på naboplassen. Ola T Grøv var 8 år eldre enn henne, men de må ha kjent hverandre fra hun ble født. Da Ola døde i 1799 drev hun husmannsplassen alene til hun døde i 1837. Hun er oppført som "Husqvinde med jord" i folketellingen fra 1801.

Ola og Ingebjørg (i folketellingen fra 1801 blir hun kalt Ingeborg og der sies det at hun er 36 år gammel, altså er hun ikke født i 1763, som Frøholm skriver, men i 1765.): Torgeir (1786-1817), Ola (1788-) husmann og senere bruker på Nørre Strand (10/1), Andris (1793-), en kort tid husmann på Sletten under Ïye, siden på Ïvre Haga under Kvame, Ingebjørg (1796-) som en tid bodde på Kvame, i 1838 (42 år gammel) giftet hun seg med Andris Øysteinson Løkreim. Ola (1797-1856) han var ugiftog dø de hos broren med samme navn på Strand, Han etterlot seg 556 spd, medreknet 4 kyr og var altså en ganske velstående mann på den tiden. han overtok nok husmannsplassen etter moren, i alle fall flyttet han inn i husene etter henne da hun døde i 1837 , men han ble kastet ut av Andris Olsen Øye. Det var sak om dette, men Ola ble ikke dømt til bøter, fordi retten ikke kunne finne at noe galt var skjedd.
