Now that you seems to have all the dates you can try to search in these scanned church books from Vang parish in Oppland county and check for yourself, it´s very exiting.
How to find Roland Rolandsen born 1803, first enter this records for Vang
then enter Vang 1796-1808 and then the birth and baptism records for 1803 and page one for January appear, then browse threw the pages until August and Roland appear.
Try the same for the parents etc.
Born about means the author didnt find the person, could be born in another parish or just forgotten.
If you want to share a record in this forum click on Image information, top page, and change from None to On top where the parmanent pagelink appear.

You'll find that the person you found listed as "Olav Ingjeldson" was more often known as Ola Engellson who was born on Ringøy, Kinsarvik, Hordaland. Kinsarvik was the area immediately to the south and east of Granvin just on the other side of that section of the Hardanger fjord. Ola/Olav was a younger brother to my ancestor previously mentioned.
So that link to Ringøy is as I expected. Keep your notes organized, collect all spellings and enjoy your research. The books you'll want to review might not already be at your nearest LDS Family History Center but you can order them on microfilm to use at their facility. There are also volunteers who have the books who do limited lookups and have put their contact information online.

The lady's name, "Ingeborg Johnsdatter", has been listed in many forms in various books and "family trees". Her baptismal record is the first listed for "Graven" in 1803. (Hordaland fylke, Ulvik, Ministerialbok nr. A 11 (1793-1838), Kronologisk liste 1803, side 45.)

Graven is the old spelling for Granvin, a former sub parish in Ulvik parish in Hardanger.
To be sure we need her wedding record.
I overlooked the Chronological list Hopkins.
Ingebjor Johnsdatter was christened in Granvin church Jan. 23. 1803, top 1. column right page under Graven.
Døbt Ingebjor født på Kjærland 16. Jan. Foreldre John Olsen og Ingeborg Sjursdatter
Christened Ingebjør born on Kjærland Jan. 16.Parents John Olsen and Ingebjør Sjursdatter, here
The same parents on Kjærland in 1801 with two sons, Ole and Sjur and a servan girl.

Visit Mokestad, Mæland, Espe and Ringøy in this Map
Write Espe and click on "Søk", choose nr 1, click on "Velg" and watch Espe and Mæland.
Change to Foto
Repeat the same for Ringøy and Måkestad (choose nr 4). Måkestad is across the fjord for Espe, perhaps that journey was the reason for so many people drowned, bad weather?
Good luck.

The spellings being used in these most recent postings are a bit strange to me, I'm quite curious about the source of the spellings.
The wedding couple WAS Vigleik Sekse and Kristi Halldorsdatter Espe. The persons who drowned were "Marita Urheim 69 år, Marita Meland 77 år, Synneve Måkestad 47 år, Jakob Tokheim 17 år, Margit Måge 17 år og Tore Brandstveit 16 år."
The story is found starting on page 549, Volume 1 of "Odda, Ullensvang og Kinsarvik i gamal og ny tid", 8 volumes by Olav Kolltveit |
