Notes:

Niels Sjursen, in the 1801 census, was 34 years old and unmarried, a soldier living with his father, Sjur Nielsen, age 64, and his mother and Sjur’s wife, Inger Stephensdatter, age 54, on Bøe, Wangs Hoved, Voss, Søndre Bergenhuus, Hordaland. Although Niels is shown as “his son”, Inger is probably his mother because it is the first marriage for Sjur and Inger.

A Niels Sjursen and Kari Olsdatter of Brennes farm had a son Niels in 1807 in Evangers subparish, Voss.

Niels married Brita Bergesdatter WÆTHE. Brita (daughter of Berge Brynjelsen WÆTHE and Brita Erichsdatter) was born about 1773 in Hordaland, Norway. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

In the 1801 census, she is probably the Brita Bergesdatter, age 28, the daughter of Berge Brynjelsen and Brita Erichsdatter. Berge was bonde and gaardbeboer on Wæthe in the local parish of Wangs Hoved Sogn in the Voss parish.
