| Perfect! Thank you. How do you find these so quickly? |
If you're beyond polyglot, does that make you a glottoglut? |

I have a fair knowledge of the language, the country and norwegian names, besides as a retired person I see it as a challenge to get results from my investigations. |

| Is there any chance you can find where Bernt Tallacksen was buried? What resources are the best for searching? |

Einar, I had already questioned your research for Reier Tallacksen, and you were able to figure out the right records for him. I hope I don't sound impertinent questioning his wife Maren now, too.
I found a death record for Karen Børrisdtr., wife of Glarmester Tallaksen, #189 in the Ministerialbok and the Klokkerbok.
Looking again at their marriage record that you found, I could see how the handwriting might've been Karen, though it does look more like Maren.
The birth and census records you found before would make this Karen/Maren to be age 65 when she died in 1857, but these list her at age 77. I'm looking for a birth/baptism record in Christiansand around 1780, but it might take me a while to find. (It *only* requires searching 82 pages to cover 1780 +/- 1 year.) Do you have any expert thoughts on this? Did I miss anything important?
Also, I have several records for Reier and Karen/Maren having children (3 births, 1 death), and all those records are very clearly spelled "Maren". |

| Searching for her confirmation record might be quicker since the records are usually only lists of names and ages and divided by sex, 1795+/- 5 years, might snag her. |

It looks like Kristiansand didn't record confirmands until 1812.
Thanks for that advice though, generally. I haven't collected the confirmation documents for the family yet, because I thought it would be too laborious a search, but you make it sound easier than birth/baptism records, so I'll get started on that. |

I'm pretty sure this isn't the same Berent Tobias Tallacksen I'm trying to find, based on the dates and location.
Still, thank you very much for the website I can search through, amyanderson75. |
