I think, if possible, the only way to track Gudmund Jerpset is if he is mentioned in this bygdebooks from Eidskog written by Jorun I. Engen, see down page for Eidskog municipality.
I cannot confirm this information, it seems like Gudmund Jerpset had 5 children, see here
Professor Rygh means the name comes from mans name Jarpi who could have been the first settler who gave name to the farm, spelled Jarpasetr, since the name is found on a Swedish runic stone.

I Hope you do not mind about this additional information.
Interesting to read about the 7 years war 1807-14 against Sweden Einar and the engagement by Jerpset Mai 25. 1808 where soldiers from Lĉrdalske Regiment participated.
I have read that one of the reasons soldiers from Lĉrdal, western Norway, was taken to the front was that many soldiers from both countries were from the lateral regions, many had friends and family on both side of the border. Espesially the Swedish soldiers were not motivated.
New soldiers from other regions were therefore more motivated.
Lĉrdal Regiment had great uniforms, in the first skirmish the Swedes thougt they were attaced by French soldiers.
France was an allied to Denmark/Norway.
A monument was set up on Jerpset 1908, the pictures are from the 2008 celebration.

Hi
The Norwegian church was obliged by law to keep church books from Sept. 25. 1688.
The wife was usually not mentioned by name but as woman as in this example as " Gudmund Jerpsets Quinde" Gudmund Jerpsets Woman.
An exeption was if she bacame a widow, she was then referred to by name in the protocol such as taxpayer but only until a son /daughter takes over the farm, or she remarried, then she was "forgotten" by the authorities again.
The reason was that the authorities was until the 1801 census only interested in two things: Owners (tax payers) and boys older than 12 (potential soldiers)
Is the owner of Jerpset Mai 1808, Trond Larsen Jerpset, one of your ancestors?
He owned Jerpset when it was occupied by Swedish soldiers.
Trond served on Kongsvinger Fortress and lead the Norwegian soldiers from Lĉrdalske Infantry Company towards the farm.
A nearby stone is called "Svenskestenen" The Swedish stone, where he overpowered the Swedish guard so hi did not get alarmed his fellow soldiers.
Tronds wife Inger Hansdatter and a little child was hiding in an open fire place inside the house while the fighting was ongoing.
In the walls of an outbuilding on Jerpset in the 1930s there were still lead bullets.
For his effort Trond Jerpset was awarded with the Danish Dannebrog Medal, could be like this Dannebrog badge of honour from 1808.
Dannebrog is the name of the national flag of Denmark.
Most of the information comes from this Norwegian page
Good luck in finding Gudmund Jerpsets wife.

Went back to my research, Berger Larsen, hiscomfirmed parents are as I had Lars Karlsen and Ragnhild Olsdatr. After further research I have found Trond Larsen Jerpset is Bergers great grandson, so thanks for putting me on that track which will keep me busy for awhile.

He was, good to know.
Since you are able to get so fare back as 1470 you know were to look into the Norwegian censuses and records.
If you have any questions you are welcome back here.

Hi
I would like to say a big thankyou to all the people who take the time to help people like me.I have only been doing geneology for the past year and am at last learning how to get round the norwegian census etc. At times its difficult to translate them and the major advantage is that when I get stuck or run out of leads I can ask the forum and you are always helpful.
I love the additional notes and facts about the people as it gives me an idea into their lives. I spend hours reading the links you give me and am starting to understand how farms and surnames play a big part. Your country is alot like New Zealand and I felt at home when we were there and one day will come back to visit.
So again THANKYOU to all who share their time and knowledge.
