Jim’s notes:

Han var tremenning til svigerfaren sin. Han må ha vært en flink bonde og en forretningsmann. Han fikk skjøte på 16 skinn i gården 3.11.1738 av dette var dette 11 skinn fra faren og resten fra onkler, tanter og søskenbarn, for ialt 150 rd.. Fe m år etter fikk han auksjonskjøte fra boet etter Andreas Morland på 1 mæle korn og 1 skinn kirkegods i gården for 16 rd. Skjøte er datert 13.11.1743. Men han trengte nok penger, for 16.2.1745 ga han Jørn Andrisson Ellingbø pant i 7 skinn i gårde n for et lån på 140 rd. Året etter, den 26.6.1746 fikk Torstein bygselsbrev på 1 bismerpund smør i prestebolsgodset i Kvåle, og endelig fikk han den 4.7.175 skjøte av søsknene og svogre på deres arveparter etter foreldrene; 1 hud 2,5 skinn for 30 0 rd. Det er klart at han måtte ha penger, og den 12.10.1759 lånte han 600 rd av sokneprest Castberg (mannen til Madam Anker), mot pant i gården. Torstein eide en tid mesteparten av odelsgodset i Øvre Kvåle, hele 2 huder og 4 skinn.
