Knud Iversson ELTUN

Notes:

Born in Eltun 13/3, nedre. Resided in Bøkkadn 33/3 av Ellingbø. Died as Knut Iversen Ellingbö.

Han var først på Eltun 13/1 1851-1863. Han flyttet til Ellingbø 33/2 Bøkko i 1868. På Eltun var han postkar. Han fikk Eltun da han giftet seg, men solgte gården til Ivar I Uvdal (1862-1909) i 1863. De sies at det var Embrik og Helge Ellingbø som kjøpte Bøkkadn, som da nettopp var fradelt med eget nr. av Trond Ellingbø og solgte halvparten videre til Knut. og at Jond Endresen Ellingbø og Torstein, sønnen til Helge fikk overta hver sin halvpart. Men i opptegnelsene etter Yngve Ellingbø står det at Knut kjøpte gården av Trond I Ellingbø, fordi buskapen deres var drept av slagbjørn og at de derfor dro til USA.

Det er riktig at bjørnen herjet ganske mye på den tiden, og det __ kan hende at det var derfor de dro til USA, men i statsarkivet på Hamar er det dokumenter som __kan fortelle følgende:

Trond I Uvdal (se faren Ivar Uvdal) overtok i 1850. De hadde 8 barn, og dro til USA med alle barn som levde i 1862. De tok også med seg barna til datteren Velgjerd (Hun hadde to barn utenfor ekteskap). Gården ble så delt i 3 underbruk, 2 under husmannsplasser under Baggetun og ett under nordigarden av Ellingbø 33/1.

Livaursfolket Øystein og Ambjørg bodde her. Med skylddeling 7.10.1867 og 25.4.1868 ble gården delt i fire parter:
grn.: 33/3 Bøkkadn (Bøkko)
gnr.: 33/4 Fagerli (senere hotellet)
grn.: 31/1 Haugadn (som Bøland forpakter, leier eller bruker)
og grn.: 31/2 Grindaheim (nedlagt hotell på nedsiden av riksveien, Men som har gitt navnet til hotellet på Fagerlid). Hovedparten etter delingen var Bokko.

Knut __kan derfor neppe ha kjøpt gården direkte av eierne som ble rammet av bjørn. Det er heler ikke funnet noen dokumetasjon på at hele buskapen ble drept av bjørn, men i en protokoll fra 1860 heter det at to kviger og en kalv skal v?re drept av "biørn på seteren Grov ved Helin den sommeren."

Translated:

He was first at Eltun 13/1 1851-1863. He moved to Ellingbø 33/2 Bøkko in 1868. At Eltun he was a postman. He got Eltun when he got married, but sold the farm to Ivar I Uvdal (1862-1909) in 1863. They say that it was Embrik and Helge Ellingbø who bought Bøkkadn, who was then just separated with his own number by Trond Ellingbø and sold half on to Knut. and that Jond Endresen Ellingbø and Torstein, Helge's son, each took over half. But in the records after Yngve Ellingbø it says that Knut bought the farm from Trond I Ellingbø, because their livestock was killed by a bear and that they therefore went to the USA.

It is true that the bear ravaged quite a lot at that time, and that may be why they went to the USA, but in the state archives at Hamar there are documents that can tell the following:

Trond I Uvdal (see father Ivar Uvdal) took over in 1850. They had 8 children, and went to the United States with all the children who lived in 1862. They also took the children of their daughter Velgjerd (She had two children out of wedlock). The farm was then divided into 3 sub-farms, 2 under homesteads under Baggetun and one under the northern farm of Ellingbø 33/1.

The people of Øystein and Ambjørg lived here. With divisions dated 7.10.1867 and 25.4.1868 the farm was divided into four parts:
grn .: 33/3 Bøkkadn (Bøkko)
gnr .: 33/4 Fagerli (later the hotel)
grn .: 31/1 Haugadn (which Bøland leases, rents or uses)
and grn .: 31/2 Grindaheim (closed hotel on the lower side of the national road, But which has given the name to the hotel on Fagerlid). The majority after the division was Bokko.

Knut cannot therefore have bought the farm directly from the owners who were affected by bears. No documentation has been found that the whole herd was killed by a bear, but a protocol from 1860 states that two heifers and a calf were killed by "bears on the farm Grov by Helin that summer."
