I am seeking any information about Halsten Andersen born in 1653 in Hedmark, Norway and married Anne Toresdatter in 1678. I do not know know when Anne Toresdatter was born but I believe she died in 1746 (Probably in Sweden). They had a son, Jon Halstenssen. I believe he married Ingeborg Olofsdotter in 1710 (Probably in Sweden). It is information about Jon and Ingeborg that I am trying to find.
I would appreciate any information or help as to where I could find the information.

If possible, besides posting on here , could an email with the information be sent to me
gstu@shaw.ca

Thank You in Advance
Stuart Anderson

On the LDS site (familysearch.org) there is a Jon Halstensen b abt 1698 in Stor Elvdal, Hedmark, Norway who married an Anne Larsen or Bakken in 1734. The parents match.

The Stor-Evdal records are online starting in 1860. Before that, they are included in the Åmot parish (scroll to the bottom):

Stuart -
You'll find "Halsten Andersen" listed twice in the WorldConnect databases of RootsWeb.com
You can also try searches for alternate spelling possibilities of the name(s) - I only tried the one spelling.
Those two posters to RootsWeb claim to have information about his paternal ancestry and one lists sources from the "Bygdebok for Stor-Elvdal" and the probate records of the period of Hedmark.
Your search pre-dates the surviving church records for the area and therefore will be limited by that lack of source documents.

Search for Jon Halstensen using Google, then click on "Aner for Fredrikke Marie Kind" use HTML and you will find Halsten Andersen born 1653 i Ellestu, Koppang; died 1728 as no 208 on page 14. His son Jon born 1698 i Ellestu, Koppang; died 1771 is there. He married twice 1) Gjertrud Jonsdatter and 2) Anne Larsdatter.

Thank You Everyone.
I do believe that I have, as incorrect, Jon Halstensen (1698) as the father of Halsten Jonsson.


The Halsten Jonsson, I have, was born in Fryksande, Varmland in Sweden. He was born on 21 Feb, 1718 and married Maritt Pardotter who was born 26 Apr 1716 also in Fryksande, Varmland. I do not have the marriage date.

Thanks again to all that aided me. I must search elsewhere, The fun of genealogy.
