                       The link to the scanned church record does not work.
  Working direct links to the scanned images on the Digitalarkivet can be copied and pasted from the desired page from a display option available. At the top of the scanned image page is an option labeled "Bildeinformasjon:" [Norwegian version]/"Image Information"[English version] which is by default set to "Ingen" [Norwegian version]/"None" [English version]. Change that and magic is available. Of the three options I like "Øverst" [Norwegian version]/"On top" [English version] because it puts the additional information across the top of the page and is usually easier for me to see.
  The first line "Kildeinformasjon:" [Norwegian version]/"Source information" [English version] is a really nice summary of the source of the information and is wonderful to have for making detailed source citations, footnotes, etc.
  The second line "Permanent sidelenke:" [Norwegian version]/"Permanent pagelink" [English version] is the best line to capture if you want to save the exact URL location or share the actual scanned image and the source information.  It allows the full capabilities for zooming in and out to best view the image and informs the recipient of the exact location, book and other details to be able to find WHERE you found the information.
  The third line "Permanent bildelenke:" [Norwegian version]/"Permanent imagelink" [English version] is the best used to print a copy of the image or to save a copy of the image in a jpg format computer file.  This line does NOT also capture the source information and therefore is NOT the best line to copy to share online when requesting help or assistance in deciphering the image found.
  At the end of the record that writer has put in "husmannsfolk paa Kloster."  He had a habit on those pages of making notes like that.
  The family is included in the bygdebøker for Rennesøy, the third volume of that series in the pages for Utstein Kloster.    Neither of  the parents was originally from Rennesøy and most of their children later appear to have moved to Stavanger. |

                       Bjotveit = a farm located in Kinsarvik, Hordaland, Norway. Måkastad = a farm located in Ullensvang, Hordaland, Norway. Kjerland = a farm in what was Granvin, Hordaland, Norway.
  Jon Olavsen Bjotvedt's paternal grandparents were both from Ringøy farm in Kinsarvik, Hordaland, Norway.  It would be likely that you would find links to my own ancestral family in those locations.
  Jillian, you must have been given much more about your family than could first be assumed from your questions.   Jon Olavsen and Ingebjørg Sjursdatter are the ancestors of one of your family that later resided in Rogaland as discussed in the first page of this line of inquiry.

                       As I said Kjerland = a farm in what was Granvin, Hordaland, Norway.
  Granvin, Ullensvang and Kinsarvik are areas along sections of the Hardanger fjord in Hordaland, Norway.   They are well covered by resources such as parish records and bygdeboker. "The ættarboks for Øyfjord, Ulvik, Kinsarvik, Odda, Udlesvang", 5 volumes by A.K. Bu; "Granvin, Ulvik og Eidfjord i gamal og ny tid", 2 volumes by Olav Kolltveit; "Aettarbok for Granvin" by Kvalem, Henrik Meyer. "Odda, Ullensvang og Kinsarvik i gamal og ny tid", 5 volumes by Olav Kolltveit. Rennesøy is the island district just to the north of the city of Stavanger in Rogaland.  A multi-volume bygdeboker and parish records are also resources available for your use. "Rennesøy gard og ætt", 3 volumes by Birger Lindanger, Jørg Erik Waula; "Rennesøy gards- og ættesoge", by Vilhelm Sunnanå og Håvard Vetrhus; "Rennesøy prestegjeld, Rennesøy, Mosterøy, Kvitsøy"
  I have ancestors from all of those districts.  I've "met" relatives still in Norway through my years of research into those areas -- persons with the same hobby and interested in exactly the same ancestors who happen upon each other while engaged in serious research.  I've never deliberately sought out living relatives in Norway so cannot help you with that desire.
  I've checked and I think it highly probable that Jon Olavsen Bjotvedt is one of the grandsons of 6th great grandparents of mine.  My 5th great grandfather being one of his uncles.

                       It's good information in Follesdal's articles, enjoy the study and return to those articles as often as needed.  I still do after all these years.  Besides the small "dictionary" list Follesdal includes with his articles another online translation list will be useful to you - http://home.online.no/~otjoerge/files/word.htm
  Which archives sent you all this information?   Did they do this work recently?  
  That's the link I was expecting to see.  Parents of Lars Rolandsen Kloster --  Roland Rolandsson, metal smith (born Nordland farm, Vang, Oppland ) m. Inger Jonsdatter (born Kjerland farm, Granvin, Hordaland) and Jon "Olavsen Bjotvedt" was her father in Granvin.   That makes the link and lines up with the information in the bygdeboker by Kolltveit which includes Ytre Bjotveit farm, Kinsarvik.
  Several of the bygdeboker/ættarboker for the Hardanger area districts of Ullensvang, Kinsarvik and Granvin that I listed earlier are available on LDS microfilm/microfiche; a very inexpensive way for you and I to get to use those books from the USA.   (Use the translating lists and think seriously of buying a good Norwegian-English dictionary.)  Most of all, enjoy the research! |

                       Thank you Hopkins  for this info  
  I sent an email  monday that just passed  and I got a reply yesterday @ 6:42 am asking if they could help me and they sent me a reply back I gave them the names and the info the Stavanger archives sent it to me
  It had 2 attachments one document was a letter telling me what was included and then told me about lars and Anne and told meto look at the   Rennesøy Gard og ætt band 3 and Ætterbok for Granvin church records of vang that was attached in a pdf file 
   Rennesøy Gard og ætt band 3 Roland Rolandsson, Nordland,Vang i Valdres f 1803 d 27.6.1890 .smed F: Roland Larsson  9.4.1833 m.Inger Jonsdtr Kjaerland Granvin b1803 d 27.4.1840 
  the info I have on Jon Olavson  Bjotveit is from Ætterbok for Granvin it is 82 in it I will have to check out LDS I actually have one in my city luckily I will have to get a New Norwegian Dictionary I had one from when I was with my ex husband and his Aunt used to write to us she was from Sørøya I almost was able to read norwegian and understand  with out the dictionary but I haven't read Norwegian in such a long time almost 8 years time |
