      Jim’s notes:

      Oppfostret av bestefaren Trond (far til Kattevøladn). Mange mente han ble en ny utgave av den gamle patriarken. Han var en flink bonde og Kattevold 44/ var toppgården i Vang på den tiden. Han ble ofte truet på livet fordi han alltid var ute etter all råskapen og fanteriet som var i Vang på den tiden. Han gjorde mye for skolene i bygda, bl.a skaffet han lærebøker. Han ville at ungene skulle lese ordentlige bøker, og ble sint hvis han så at de leste

      (BK. "Gamalt frå Vang): " Han Trond flytta aat Bø og brukte gard'n der i 9 aar. Ein drivande garbrukar var han, og der flødde taa alle ting i Bø i dei aaro. Daa bestefar'n dø, kom dei te Kattevøl, og dei kom ikkje tomhendis. Ei heil dreft med hesta og fe hadde dei med se or Bø. Slik heimafyld hadde ingjen sett før her i bygd'n.

      Endaa va det kje følketomt paa Kattevøl; mange ledige dagdrivarar med lite te bite, og lite te slite. Dei nebbast som smaafugla, ner ein lit'n jobb va te bøans. men han Trond kunna mynstre og stramma dei, so fekk dei nøkk fart i se. I baao støgo Sygarde va det ei babelsk førvirring hjaa frendo hans, som heldt paa fara utaaver bakkin, og Trond stræva lenge med o faa dei te seta føta unde se. Han fekk ikkje stort att før strævet sitt, vart helda misskjent mangei gøng; men sia kom dei daa te kjenne han før den velmeinte og reale mann, som han virkele va.

      Da han giftet seg andre gang, kom rampen og skulle røve bruden. Men hun kom ikke ut. De låste derfor alle inne i huset der festen var. Da Trond giftet seg med Ingeborg flyttet han til Bø 25/ og drev den til stesønnen Amund ble så stor at han kunne overta gården i 1823, Trond fikk livaure på Bø 25/ av stesønnen. (BK "Gamat fra Vang).

      Trond døde antakelig av lungebetennelse. BK skriver: "Trond Jonson fø 5. januar 1855. Han for på Øyremarkna'n um hausten og lei so vondt paa ture at han fekk banin sin taa det. Maren Bøyesdøtte. Ekja ette hono dø um hauste 1873."

      As translated by Google:

      Raised by his grandfather Trond (father of Kattevøladn). Many thought he was a new version of the old patriarch. He was a good farmer and Kattevold 44/ was the top farm in Vang at the time. He was often threatened with death because he was always looking for all the cruelty and mischief that was in Vang at the time. He did a lot for the schools in the village, among other things he provided textbooks. He wanted the children to read proper books, and got angry if he saw them reading {something less?}.

      (BK. "Old from Vang): " Trond moved to Bø and used the farm there for 9 years. He was a busy farmer, and there everything flowed in Bø in those years. When his grandfather died, they came to Kattevøl, and they did not come empty-handed. They had a whole business with horses and cattle with them from Bø. Such homeliness had never been seen before in this village.

      Even so, it was completely empty at Kattevøl; many free day drivers with little to bite, and little to toil. They must have been like little birds when a little job came up. but he Trond knew how to pattern and tighten them, so they gained a lot of speed. When Sygarde saw it, there was a Babel confusion among his friend, who was looking at the danger outside the hill, and Trond struggled for a long time to get them to set foot under the ground. He didn't realize that before his endeavours, luck was misunderstood many times; but then they came to know him before the well-intentioned and real man that he really was.

      When he married for the second time, the ramp came and was going to kidnap the bride. But she did not come out. So they locked everyone in the house where the party was. When Trond married Ingeborg he moved to Bø 25/ and ran it until his stepson Amund was old enough to take over the farm in 1823, Trond was given a lease on Bø 25/ by his stepson. (BK "Gamat from Vang).

      Trond probably died of pneumonia. BK writes: "Trond Jonson was born on January 5, 1855. He went to Øyremarkna in the fall and suffered so much on the trip that he had his leg taken. Maren Bøyesdøtte. I did not see her die in the fall of 1873."
