Hello again Barb!

I trhink the best chance is the book "Norske gardsbruk, Oppland CO, V, Hadeland, Land opg Toten" (1957)

A new one was also released some few years ago.

Maybe I can scan some images for you?

Rachael;

There are many Narum farms in todays East Toten municipality and also a few in West Toten. (All of them was located in old KOLBU municipality)

"Narumseie" = "owned by Narum" = a subfarm, a cotters farm, a tenant farm.

Smedakken. I think thats also a small cotters farm, do you know where?

Nøkleby (Noekleby) and Gjerstad was also in Kolbu, today East Toten.

I'm living close by all this farms.
To identify the right place/farm I need all the names and dates on the persons.

Mail me at to-ru circle a online.no
