Olav Ingjeldson = Ole Engelson born June 16 1722 at Ringøen, parents Engel Simonson and Ena Sivertsdatter, see #8
Did not find any parish record for Ingegjerd Sivertsdatter 1735 - 1737.
Did not find the death records in 1796 either.
An Inger Sivertsdatter from Tveit was born in 1726!

The siblings of Jon are all mentioned in volume V-2 of the book series "Odda, Ullensvang og Kinsarvik i gamal og ny tid". I'm fairly sure I've given previous advice here on a related thread as to how that book is available on LDS microfilm.
Five of the six siblings married and at least 3 of their deaths are mentioned in those pages under the listing for their parents on the Ytre Bjotveit farm in Kinsarvik, Hordaland. More information can be found for each in the listings for where they later resided.
