I think you are looking for Mellemberg in Øyer parish in Oppland county north of Lillehammer town.

Bachelor Ole Syversen Sønstevoldsmoen age 25 from Østre Gausdal parish in Oppland married maid Marthe Pedersdatter Mellemberg age 23 in Gausdal Nov.12.1835.
Fathers: Syver Olsen and Peder Ingebrigtsen, couple #53

Ole Syversen and Marthe Pedersdatter emigrated from Kankerud in Østre (Eastern) Gausdal in 1849, four children, Caroline, Peder, Ingebor and Simen: #106 - 111.

Then three of the children were born in Westby Wisc.
Hard to find any Ole Syversen born about 1810 in Gausdal Einar.
Ole was likely from Svenskerud in Fåberg parish between Lillehammer and Øyer, christened Oct. 15. 1809 and his confirmation was taken place in Gausdal 1824.
Ole Syversen Svenskerud from Faaberg. Parents: Syver Olsen and Kari Amundsdatter #34

Here is Ole Svenskerud´s christening record in Faaberg from Dominica 20. Oct. 15, born Oct 9. Left page 4. from top.

You are right Kåre,
His parents Syver Olsen and Kari Amundsdatter who were at Borregaard in 1801 had a daughter Martha who was baptized Aug 26 1795, see 7th from top on right hand page here
she was born at Sønstevoldmoen.

This is the right family Einar.
They moved a lot and lived on sevarl farms, Gausdal municipality is west of Lillehammer. Perhaps Ole owned Kankerud before he emigrated?
Kari´s parents Amund Ellingsen and Rønnaug Nielsdatter lived as former owners "Føderaadsfolk" on Sønstevold in 1801, their son Elling age 39 was married to Ragnild Olsdatter, two children.

Sønstevold is first mentioned in 1688, Sønstevold is todays Synstvoll (the southern pasture).
The locations of the farms include the weather forecast for Sønstevold, Kankerud, Mellemberg, Stene (todays Steine) and Waalen (todays Vole)

Kankerud or Kanokarud can be coming from kanoki, a Cannice monastery earlier owned by the church or the Bishop in Hamar. Source Prof. O.Rygh.
Mellemberg, mellem/mellom means between and berg means a small mountain, ridge or hill, the farm is placed in a deep sedimentation between two hills.
