Here they are emigrating from the Port of Trondheim on April 4, 1883. They were from Rindalen. Many times immigrants said they came from a big city but in actuality they just left from that big city, name Løvset, scroll down to bottom of screen:

If you are looking for earlier family information in Norway - use the spelling Rindal in Møre og Romsdal, Norway with the LDS Family History Library catalog. That catalog indicates that they have parish church records available on microfilm for years as early as 1784.

Excellent 'how-to' can be studied in this collection of articles -

It is kinda hard to do research in Norway without knowing Lars and Ingeborgs parents names and their patronomyic names, recommend more research here. Have you obtained their death records, chldren's baptism records, etc. All these would provide valuable information.

In the 1865 census, there are only 2 farms that contain the name Løvset (in Sør-Trondelag) but Lars, Ingeborg and Mari are not there:
