    Other Events and Attributes:

    • Occupation: Farmer, Ordførar. Forlikskommisær, Brev- og dokumentskrivar

    Notes:

    He is I2255 in Jim’s VS.

    Jim’s notes:

    Ved siden av ordførervervet, som han hadde i mange år, var han dokumentskriver og forlikskommisær. Han ble syk etter et bryllup sør i bygda, hvor han fikk for mye å drikke og døde av det. Med andre ord drakk han seg nok ihjel på dårlig hjemmebrent. Om de andre barna se merknad under kona Sigrid. Han var åttende ordføreren i Vang og den første som hadde hvervet mer enn i tre år. Han satt som ordfører til 1861, da Nils Thune overtok hvervet.

    De fleste av barna dro til USA i 1868, de andre fulgte etter i 1876. De første må altså kalles de virkelige pionerer. De fleste ble farmere. Se fil USA OBW (Wangensteen-Slægten) skriver om Nils: "Vistnok med fuld Grund er det sagt at Wangensteenslægten er en åndskraftig Slægt og at enkelte af dens Medlemmer er høit begavede Mennesker Nils Wangensteen Stele må således i første Rekke nævnes blandt dem, som har raget høiest i Begavelse og Kundskaber. Han var i Årrækker Formandskabets Ordfører, Forligelseskommisær samt privat Brev- og Dokumentskriver for hver den, som trængte til hans Bistand. Han skrev et Indhold lige så godt som en Jurist og hans Håndskrift var meget vakker. Men hvad de kommunale Gjøremål angik, så afløstes han af sin Slægtning Nils Thune. Det var ingen annen Råd. Endeligt kom det sidste og skjæbnesvangre Tillfælde. Det var et Bryllup syd i Bygden og mer end nok af sterke Drikke. Så skrantet Nils Steile og var sykelig en kort Tid, indtil Døden gjorde en Ende på den før såvel legemlig som åndelig kjæmpesterke Mand. 54 År gammel"

    Dette tyder på at han var alkoholiker?OBW hentyder ofte at lensmennene reiste vidt omkring og hvor de kom fikk de en "sjenk", derfor ble de ofte litt for glade i "det sterke".

    Frøholm skriver:"Han var på Berge ikring 1840, men overtok garden her i 1842. Han ble sjuk etter et bryllaup sør i bygda, der det var mykje sterk drykk."(Dette kan også tyde på at han fikk i seg dårlig hjemmebrent og døde av det!)

    Sigrid og Nils hadde også disse barna: Maren død lietn Maren (1842- ) gm Ole I Flaten (1842- ) de giftet seg i 1865 og dro til USA. Der ble han bokholder.

    He was called Lars Kvam in his daughter’s death certificate.

    He is Lars Jonsen Wangensteen, I53872, in Jim’s VS. His liaison with Berit Kvåle is not shown.

    Jim’s notes:

    OBW (Wangensteen-Slægten) skriver om ham: "Som Ældste Søn var han odelsberettiget til Kvam. Hvad Evner m.v angår så var han absolut den mest begavede inden Wangensteen-Slægten i Vang. Den Gløgge Mand og Menneskekjender Knut Nystuen - populært kaldt "Basen" - kunde således ved en Anledning give Lars W følgende korte, men Indholdsrige Skudsmål: "Detta va ein væl utrusta Ungdom". Alligevel var Skjæbnen den at alle Muligheder for at finde frem til noget varigt godt ikke lå i Lar s W Vei - en Gåde, som det synes at være fra først til sidst. Gjenemglødet som han var af Ungdomsfriskhed og Lærelyst blev han i ung Alder optaget som Elev ved Lærerskolen i Land og tog Eksamen med bedste Karakter. Dog så at der blev gjort den Tilføielse, at han var noget ustadig. Færdig med Skolen blev han beskjæftiget på Kotoret hos faderen og senere ansat hos Lensmand Bratli på Toten samt endvidere på Sagførerkontor i Kristiania. Alt syntes å gå godt idet han fik rig Anledning til å udfolde sin dygtighed og fyldestgjør e for de Forventninger, som stilledes til en så kundsabsrig og begaved Mand, som han var. Men så blev det desværre ikke længe før hans Glansperiode var forbi. Lensmandsbestillingen i Vang, som uafbrudt havde været i Hændene til Wangensteen i 60 År, blev efter John Ws Død og hans Søn Lars Konstitution i Stillingen ov erladt til den hæderlige, troværdige og hjertegode Mand P Ellingsen. Vang fik da mange "Fredens År", idet Folk fik stelle med sine offentlige Gjøremål uden nogensomhelst Påtryk fra den eller den Kant, Dette var bare "et Stille før Stormen". For ef terhånden kom "Traditionerne" igjen og der blev et politisk Sjau i Bygden, som det neppe har været Magen til. Efterhånden ble Lars W styren og lei. - det sagdes på Grund af han ble negtet Ægdeskap af familien. Dette får stå for egen Regning. So m en Eiendommelighed ved Lars var hans stærke Interesse for religiøse Emner. .. Skridtvis gik det nedeover med Forstanden og han måtte tilslut anbringes på Amtets Sindsygeasyl, hvor Døden gjorde en Ende på alle hans Lidelser og Savn."
